I know the show has drew criticsm for constantly discussing their own channel's fighters (how dare they)

But the lion's share of today's show was centred around Khan, Ogogo , Harrison and they had Cleverly in the studio too.

Then a big segment on Fury and even Jamie sparring Murray and a long interview about the Sergio fight.

I have to agree that the show last night was a decent round up.

I thought the segments about the ABA's from Saturday were particularly good and possibly worthy of a full showing(think an edited version late on SkyS 3 or something).

Did anyone else notice that the clips of the Cleverly-Krasniqi looked fantastic in HD? How can Sky show clips in HD but BN can't broadcast it 'live' the same?! (I know, another picture quality gripe).

I also thought Luke Campbell came across well. He could be a crossover star if his career goes well.

Luke ticks all the boxes. Genuine nice, personable guy.

Nice lad, but questionable whether he would have the power or guts to keep some mad Latin American lightweight off him for 12 rounds.

He is undoubtedly a skilled boxer, his amateur achievements prove this, but the pro game is a different story as many top amateurs have found out in the past and present.

Hope his does well, but unless he has some real power behind his punches he is going to struggle at top pro level.

Best watch for weeks. Felt balanced and indicative of whole last weekend, and this weekend, without cheer leading for Eddie too much.

Thank the lord khan is no longer a sky fighter otherwise whole hour would have been about him no doubt

Just remember folks,

Setanta Sport went out of business. SKY Sports makes large profits.

Agree, he seems very likeable.

How do we see his career at the weight ?

We will have to wait and see. He obviously has the skills but its a very different sport. Cant argue with his pedigree, though, and will have arguably the biggest support of any of the Olympians to turn pro in a long time.
