I think the first British telecast I tapped into was Froch vs Groves 1.
I'm glad I've started following the UK Boxing scene closer. I was missing out on some real quality sh*t over here in the States.

Have to say after seeing 12 years a slave which was mostly set in Louisiana I really want to visit there. Looks like an absolutely beautiful state in terms of natural beauty.gilgamesh wrote:

So Bucklands winning by a score of 19-19?

In some areas it is. Not necessarily the part I live in, but I've seen some beautiful parts of the world around here.jameswilson wrote:Have to say after seeing 12 years a slave which was mostly set in Louisiana I really want to visit there.

Re: Cardiff RBR
Rees trying to 'box' more tonight.
Re: Cardiff RBR
Close 3rd round, but Rees' shots just seem to have more behind them. When I see these punches I think "I'd rather get hit by Buckland than Rees"
29-28 because it feels like that kinda fight, but the 2nd and 3rd rounds were close.

Re: Cardiff RBR
Halling is horrible as a commentator, well done to Watt for saying something that makes sense in round 5.
Re: Cardiff RBR
For me most of these years it was simply because I didn't have access to it. I've only recently got high speed internet, and they don't show most of these British fights on American Television so I've never got to follow it before the way I'd like too.Boxing Prospect wrote:It's amazing how much great stuff fans ignore because they, for whatever reason, they just don't bother making an effort to follow stuff from other countries...gilgamesh wrote:When I first started streaming cards in the UK not too long ago.

I'm still not able to follow Japanese Boxing all that often either even though I'd like too, mainly because I don't know when it's on.

Japanese stuff is on around mid day in the UK, Thai stuff is 8am UK...so they'll be very early your time sadly.

Gil if you let me know which of the fights you'd be interested in from the East I'll try and help you to watch them ;)

My knowledge on Japanese Boxing is sadly lacking. I'd like to rectify that as I know a lot of the very best Lower Weight class fighters in the World fight over there.

Rewarding Bukland for "effort"...gah
RE next big Japanese fight it Murata Vs Nerio on Fuji TV, 11PM Tokyo time (3PM UK). It's delay but always worth watching Ryota Murata.
