I can never listen to more than 30 seconds.
The older i get the worse my attention span becomes,i get sent "funny" whatsapps by people and if they're over 2.30 mins long i just dont bother.

When i see an ifltv vid for 30 plus mins it's just a non starter for me.

They should have a highlights section a bit like match of the day where all the babble is cut out and only the interesting stuff remains.
As soon as Saunders says ' listen koogs' I switch off usually withing the first 20 seconds :lol:

If they cut out the babble, I'm not sure there would be anything left.

Even with the point deduction. After that I was sure Kash would win.

I hate it when somebody is being interviewed and they say "listen" don't know why but it just winds me up.

Yes, clearly they're listening already, given that they've just asked a question to which they are hoping you will respond.

We've seen shockers on MTK shows. Ohara Davies vs Vasquez was one of the worst decisions ever seen in a British ring. Kash Farooq was robbed blind vs McGregor. The mother of all robberies was the Mimoune McKenna fight. All of these dodgy results were on MTK shows, just saying. They were all disgraceful. Mind you Katie Taylor vs Persoon was an absolutely sickening robbery as was Ryder vs Smith, and they were Matchroom.
farooq v mcgregor wasn't a robbery. it was a nip and tuck fight and, in my opinion, the right man got it.
what rounds did you give mcgregor exactly?

Boxing is full of people with a past, that's accepted. The problem is that it seems Kinahan's reputation is one of being very much still involved, and media organisations within the woke new world will want nothing to do with him now that his involvement is in the open.
I don't think it's being 'woke' to not want known gangland figures to be involved in the sport.

We all know the sport has a dodgy history, but surely some effort to weed out the bad apples might help matters?
That's not what I meant James. Absolutely he shouldn't be involved, he's an active gangster. And the media strives more than ever to be right on, though they turn a blind eye to regimes and companies from culturally dubious regions if they put enough sponsorship money in the pot.

A lot of Irish people seem to say it when they’re being interviewed I’ve noticed. Esp those involved in horse racing. It does my tits In too.
