Do they really need those fat meat head bouncers to walk to the ring with them?

Not buying the PPV but can't get Talksport's boxing commentary on tv via Sky satellite dish. Is this normal? Sky block Talksport's radio commentary through their dish?

Main requirement does seem to be you need a large, fat head, shaped like a potato.

Adam Booth Possibly the smuggest man in boxing, I suppose the reason is because he’s never in the losing corner is he ? Apart from the David Haye Germany disaster

Burnett looks loose and sharp early on.

Good 1st round for Burnett. Quick jabs, and he got a solid body shot in there at one point. Parejo seems to be just trying to get a measure of him, and how he can get at him.

Was he in the corner for Andy Lee’s loss to BJS?

We don’t even get to see the ring card girls now! How are we supposed to know what round it is?

I doubt Pricey will last long enough for us to see him “exhaling his cheeks like a set of bellows”. A big Ron classic

I wish it were Khabib v Ferguson tonight instead of next week. This would be the perfect warm up card.

Oh yes you’re probably right .

I know booth’s tactics are usually ultra cautious but surely the Irishman should be steaming in a bit more here, because this other guy is no puncher is he ?

Parejo getting a little busier in the 2nd, but it's still a Burnett round.

Burnett boxes like Josh Kelly. If he uses that hands down style against the likes of Tete he will get starched

Action starts heating up in the 3rd. Burnett's shots start looking heavier too. He seemed to wobble Parejo a little with that overhand right near the end of the round, and those left hooks to the body are looking pretty rough too. Definitely could take the wind out of the sails of Parejo as this goes on.

Carl Thompson might have something to say about this as well
