Agree, though most pick punchers and brawlers to win Prizefighter, usually boxers win it like Prince Arron, Rocky Fielding, Michael Lomax, Robert Lloyd Taylor, Larry Ekundayo, Flanigan a few of them.

You wouldn't be complaining if you owned the monoply of boxing on Sky. It is what it is. In America all they talk about is Pac & Mayweather it does get boring but if you can't take it try another sport there's tons of them.

Will it still go ahead if Brook's title challenge is postponed? I would imagine they were meant to go together.

Of course I wouldn't be complaining if Sky are accepting of this stuff..... but come on its been dross this year - especially when Hatton / Maloney left.

Of the top of my head I can think of one competitive fight main event on paper that actually lived up to being competitive (Brook vs Jones) - okay, no one expected Bute to be quite so poor - I'll give Froch and Hearn their due there - but we are pay 50 quid a month for this.

Yes, I know it is Sky Sports so not just Boxing, but Football fans would get bored quickly if they only showed Tottenham vs QPR every other week, or new game called Penalty shoot outs - just a knockout tournament of penalty shoot outs with a mixed bag of teams competing... and then no Champions League (International) coverage.

I don't think in America they only talk about Pac and Mayweather - there are cracking world title fights as undercard - there is Andre Ward, Sergio Martinez vs JC Chavez Jnr, there is Canelo Alverez, there is a little more than Mayweather vs Pac.

If there was a way of cancelling the sky and getting HBO coverage in the UK instead - legal and in the comfort of the TV - then I would.

No I am afraid not, but you are getting warmer, as for Nas and Ochieng fight, last I heard Ochieng was running up the M1 to get as far from Nas as possible, bless.

Give it the due - we had those on the UK also..... albeit via two pay mechanisms - but got to give allegedly its due..... Not sure how it is surviving, but it is giving it to us good in terms of US coverage.

I've noticed how primetime have changed the URL to primetimeboxing.co.uk - is this the sign that they will show more than a few sporadic PPV's. Not a fan of the PPV model - but..... beggers cant be chosers (if you want to do it leagally).

I knew it was just a matter of time before you showed up. Harbi is going for the PF this much more £££ than the English and you know its all about the ££££. Good to hear from you anyway

U didn't answer the question. I go to shows and wanna see 50-50 fights like any other boxing fan. U like having a dig but don't like it back. I'm not even a al harbi fan. I hav a interest in this title cause a gym mate of my cuz who I know was in the mix for it b4 injury. All the best to nasser in pf but I know who I want to win pf and it ay nasser.

Tyler Littlejohn was supposed to be in prizefighter, but he has pulled out through injury, so a place going, Gaynor and Foot would make a wicked fight, if they meet in Prizefighter, it's good news that a lot of young prospects are in Prizefighter rather older ex champs just looking for a last pay day, the younger less experienced fighters will really go for it.

I've said it before Ochieng is not going to fight 5 times for the English belt. There not even gonna give him the belt to keep.
Plus Nas is more interested in the PF. If he wins that will be in top 5 he wont need Ochieng.
