I haven't even started. We all know Skye isn't on these shows because she sells tickets. Because she doesn't.

What a Gainsborough boy in against No Doubt with no gloves on? Nice one

Indeed, Rico Franco, a really nice, quiet lad who did am boxing, pro MMA and then BKB and ended up one of the best. I randomly used to work with his mum (now sadly passed), they are a lovely family, and used to train with his Pa. He fights with a stoma as he has crohns, he's such a decent lad, I really hope he wins. He's an enigma, lovely lad just randomly super tough, but not a nobhead at all.

Well you’ve defo got me rooting for him mate.

You can see some skill and respect that they’ve done all what’s been asked of them to compete but in all honesty I’m just waiting for them to get out and watch the bigger lads get in

This is pretty much the crux of the matter and I’ve had a similar conversation a lot lately. I guess it comes down to, do you like watching a good fight between lower abilities or do you like watching the crème de la crème?

I’m not saying about you, but I’m going the women’s footy and all tomorrow

Or maybe he was injured?

Trouble is it’s really difficult to see how his leg could have got injured.

I breathed a sigh of relief when they didn’t carry on down to the floor, couldn’t have imagined in that moment that Whitaker was going to be “unable to continue”.

Highly suspect.

It's not really about lower abilities for me, it's the severe lack of power on display. Basically takes all jeopardy out of the fights.

Exactly that. It’s like watching a completely different sport

In Eubank's defence, he's still young at 35...
