You can if you own the channel and the promotional outfit. If undercard boxers are turning down tv exposure on top of their usual pay they aren't doing themselves any favours.mimmy123 wrote:Yes, but you cant pay a fighter the same few quid if he's on TV. There are reasons you know why those fights arent on the channel.
Its all money!!!

Re: Allegedly channel home of BOXING
Like you said. Bunce has to play down any threats to stop people from getting too curious and suggesting these guys as opponents. It's the usual very bizarre FW parallel universe in which Nathan Cleverly, Light Heavyweight World Champion of Wales, is continually being interviewed with that embarrassing paper title belt slung over his shoulder, talking about things like 'reaching the top of the sport' and his 'duties as World Champion'. Christ, people like Kabrat Murat or whatever that fringe top 30 guy is called must get a nice boost of confidence when referred to in revered tones as a 'tough challenge' for such a decorated hero. Hell, he must be on at his manager all the time to get him a crack at Bernard Hopkins!bad mamma jamma wrote:good point, i found it hilarious when sillakh won recently and Bunce basically said he was shit!

Why not mention the likes of Sillahk (yeah baby...), Bellew (rematch), Garcia (maybe a little unknown but very good Cuban), Kovalev (hard punching Russian) or even mention Chilemba as a future possibility?
Oh yeah, Bunce very well knows Sillakh would knock Cleverly into next week.

The way some people talk about it on here, you would think allegedly was physically forcing people to pay £150 a month to watch a continuous loop of a Steve Roberts WBF mid 90's title fight.

The first fight never even got going enough to call it a stinker, Hopkins worked out Pascal over a few rounds could he do the same to Dawson?leforge wrote:Yes it is. is not promoted by Golden Boy.

Re: Allegedly channel home of BOXING
Dawson was far too keen, confident and young fast and strong for Hopkins; 2nd bout will reinforce that; Hopkins will be done inside 6.
