i like how they nicked the itv music.

And they've nicked Duke from ITV! Is that just a temporary "loan" or does that mean ITV are done with boxing or just Duke?? Interesting...

perhaps they really are pulling out.

Great to see Dempsey back, needs to top up the just for men though.

Why did they nick that ITV music, why not the old one.

Are Duke and Bunce last minute things, the reason why I am saying that is because it looks like they just been picked up and the bosses at Setanta have given him the same wadrobe!

Duke is as equally annoying in this role, I'm afraid.

I just hope its ITV who have got rid of Duke.

Whilst we're on the subject of presenters, what did everyone think of Dave Clarke's replacement last night? I know Clarke was only missing because of the Darts (which must tell you something about the respective standings of Boxing and Darts) Now, I heartily dislike Dave Clarke, so I'm somewhat biased, but I wouldn't mind seeing Paul Boardman* given the chance to grow into the role, despite the odd error last night.

*Please tell me it was Paul Boardman who presented last nights show. I had a few drinks in me when I watched it.

Yes it was Paul. Darts get very good viewing figures Dave Clarke is mr Darts and boxing, Darts gets very big viewing figures, the reason is best has to play the best. Boxing should be more like it.

stujones · Post by **stujones** » 09 Jun 2007, 21:54

Yes, I liked Paul Broadman last night. Thought he is better than Dave Clark.

Colin Lynes vs Barry Morrison. Lynes won, new British champion.

Did a number on him. It was like Wright vs Mosley 1 but at a lower level. A boxing lesson.

i tipped morrison to win that.

Lynes was very good last night surely the winner of Mutley v Bami should fight him. Or he could fight Alusgen who fight reid next week. I doubt he would do that.

The Setanta Pack will not be the PPV cast offs, only the same timings.

They will have 46 games of which 40 will feature one of the following teams Chelsea, Man Utd, Arsenal or Liverpool.

If you believe it is ppv cast offs you have been taking in by a marketing ploy by XXX
