Disagree with that, hes outspoken yes, some of the stuff he says is rather bizzare yes but I think hes far from an attention seeker.

If he craved attention he could easily whore himself out on the usual celebrity/reality bollocks shows
yeah, there's a series of Youth Hostels somewhere that have got his name all over them

I can't recall ever seeing Eubank on a "celebrity" type show. Was he in the Big Brother house that time when Vanessa Feltz had a meltdown? Possibly.....in any case, he could have had a lot, lot more of that. They'll have offered him cash, but he's obviously turned stuff down.

For some reason, I have a feeling he was. But it was only on because my flatmate at the time watched it, so I don't really remember.

He certainly was - isn't it bloody funny what you remember? Here he is showing Feltzy some moves and a couple of other pics. Eubank was first out. Typical BB type backstabbers.

I tweeted Kuggan saying that he was not a journalist as he can use that as any defence to accusations of professionalism. He is just a man with a camera, he does not have to follow the code of practise. I tweeted that he should tell Eubank that.

Saw a video last night with Adam Smith and Johnny which was about the twitter beef, Kuggan said, "I am just a man with a camera" and I was very pleased that rather than arguing back, he realised that it really is a simple as that and used my exact wording.

A fan boy with a camera chucking videos on youtube is not a writer with Boxing News or an interviewer with Sky Sports. Keep them as they are, I really enjoy them even though I have criticised Kuggan in the past when he has acted like a knob

Call it whatever you want but there is little denying he is better than most at what he does, he deserves that credit at the very least. There is a ton of others out there trying to do the same thing, i've watched many of them and i cant think of any i've seen that i enjoy watching as much as Kugan's interviews, that cannot solely be down to the simplicity of him being a likeable chap. Considering the majority of his interviews are ad hoc with little to no preperation time before the shoot, there can only be one conclusion, he knows the game well and he is a good interviewer with a good on-screen presence. He does not need to be suitable for the BBC, or Sky Sports, thats not what he or his channel is trying to achieve and nor should it be.
