Quite like Boxing King Media interviews, not sure of the bloke's name but he doesn't seem afraid to ask some contentious questions. That'll probably change as they get bigger and bigger though.

There are some who seem to think they are best mates with whoever they interview. I tend to move on when that happens.

Got to say I like Danny Flexen.

The interview that makes me cringe the most is I think he is called Rob Moore … the interview in particular was with Chris Eubank.

Moore in my humble opinion came across as a patronising ****.

They’ve already got nearly 1/2 million subscribers. He’s the best at the minute.

the best will be the first one who can learn to speak the queens english clearly, instead of mumbling through a mike , like tere talking through there nose. The worst is that one who keeps doing interviews with John Fury while he's polishing his nob

It's click bait gossip not journalism, they are shit scared to ask real tough questions, you see promoters hailing how great and accessible boxing is to other sports, ...only if they toe the line. It probably stops a lot of fights happening when this promoter slags off that promoter yada yada yada.

The young lad parsons was an accident waiting to happen.

Has a bit of banter with Fast Car, people like it, then it goes to his heD and ge takes it too far.

He'll be gone in 12 months

Unar is the man. Rob Tebbit good as well

Radio Raheem took on Wilder and stared him down as he got in his face. Radio wasn't one bit intimidated and I have no doubt he was ready to let the right hand go if Wilder did anything.

Umar is probably my least favourite out of the guys on IFL. He goes real easy on Frank.

Tebbut is one of the better ones. Boxing King Media is one of the best for asking some of the tough questions.

"I'm not being funny but what the f*ck is going on!!??"

"It was shades of Ali out there"

:clap: :clap:



To keep it in perspective, Hughie Fury and Joseph Parker had just had one of the worst fights of all time.

Rob Tebbut is by far the most professional when it comes to actual journalism and carrying interesting interviews.

As above I also agree some of these interviewers act more like buddies which is ok for a bit of banter but not often for decent conversation

Boxing King Media has had a heart attack. He survived it.

I didn't like that guy who interviewed an obviously very poorly Eubank Senior then put it all over YouTube and social media for clicks. What a dick move. Rib Moore was it?

I think Umar goes very easy on Frank because he’s the only IFL guy he’ll talk to. I think he refuses to talk to Kugan. Francis the kind of guy who would refuse to talk to or allow a channel at ringside if they annoyed him.

Anyway everyone knows IFL was partially funded by Hearn in the early days and is basically matchroom’s PR arm
