It'll be a good fight, but there's no way the fight will live up to the hype that surrounds it. Sky are going to whore this to every man and his dog, and by the time they do this, this forum will be full of cynical and frustrated posters who see Boxing turning into the X Factor.

I am on a computer and I have a full set of digits, it's sorted now to me, I have no problem with James. I'm not going to go into details about why I don't think it's that much bigger than Haye-Chisora right now, after hearing the news about Sir Tom Finney I don't really feel like talking boxing right now. :TU:

Yeah we'll leave it there. Like I say I'd have had a pop regardless of who wrote it but by having a pop I'll make some sarcastic comment and then possibly escalate it to 'your talking a load of rubbish' rather than bringing out c-bombs or calling anyone a tw at. Not that I get offended by people calling me that anymore.

Either way there are plenty of posters here who wind me up more. Naming no Horses.......I mean names.

If you'd have come back and said you really do have only one finger I'd have genuinely felt awful

15 years ago I shouted at somebody "are you blind" and it turned out, yes, they were. Shameful of me, I just lost my temper at this person and didn't know. I'm now a sucker for wind ups like that !

This is way bigger than Haye-Chisora. I'd argue the 1st fight was bigger and this is on another level all together. People are going to be shocked by the ticket sales for this one. I reckon all the good seats will be gone on day 1 and it will do 30k plus in 1st day and eventually be a sellout

Biggest of all time over there? I doubt it, but I am actually thinking about working business around being there, and I live on the Left Coast of the USA.

This is a big fight.
