yeah, Ricky and Matthew were there for that fight although I think Ricky knows Femi pretty well through Dennis Hobson

Did it bring back memories of when you were all alone on the landing with the screws looking the other way?

Really. Ask the ITV crew. I know when to walk away (ex-fighters) but not from unhelpful types who fancy themselves.

OOh fighting talk!

Why ask them I saw it myself. You were shaking like the little nonce case coward you are.

Why the 'nonce' soundbites every time you get riled? He doth protest too much, perhaps.

Was it an ex-fighter ?

Excellent stuff.

Don't know what sort of viewing figures the big konked yorkshireman gets these days, but good exposure ahead of his fight with Mayweather.

As far as chat shows go, Ricky will be the Kenneth Williams of the boxing world. Will look forward to that.

Should be a good day Saturday. I have to work so will miss the first half of the football but then there's the rugby later on and then Hatton on Parky.

Parkinson is shot to bits in my opinion but Jonathan Ross still couldn't lace his shoes...god, he's awful. Unctuous and fawning.

Do you really want the World to know your sick and seedy secrets, are you not reviled enough already without your past being brought up?

I'm not riled, if I had my way, I'd nail you to a lamp post and tar and feather you and your kind. Nonce.

Nope, a 40+ TV guy with no pugilsitic past or aspirations. It was only witnesses that stopped Bennie Glitter getting a right kicking.

Yes, Parky is a bit like the Meldrick Taylor of interviewers. He's trading off of his formidable reputation and journalistic training. His eyes have a glazed looked these days, and everything is off autocue, sad really, because at his best he was brilliant.

Interviewing has changed now. It's no longer about the indepth interview, partly I think because people know so much about the celebrities due to the proliferation of cheap and tatty gossip mags, there's no mystique or allure around big stars now, and interviews are just part of publicity tours?

Remember when Parky started out, there was a ban on plugging what you were doing at the time! Can you imagine that!

Johnathan Ross has his moments, he is a bit fawning (as is Parky these days), but is very good sometimes at breaking the ice with guests by being so incredibly rude and dirty that they seem to forget its an interview, and can be very funny. He is also good when interviewing film directors due to his genuine love for, and knowledge of film.

Parky at his best wasn't afraid of upsetting his guests by asking them difficult questions, most memorably perhaps Ali, who seemed on the verge of giving him a dry slap.

Can we have Bennie and Boxing Chat over 3 x 2 minute rounds on the Dec 8th card?

As for Jonathan Ross, that isn't a chat show, half the time Ross doesn't even need guests, just a mirror and some lube. He's pathetic.

And we pay him £18,000,000 a year. Yep. That's right, you and me.

It's times like this I wish ALL television was PPV.

WTF, someone at the Beeb needs a good fcuking shoeing How on earth can they justify that

How much? Come chambers, we shall draft a letter of complaint.... to the letter-cave <diddly diddly dum>

Yeah he is a humourless twat, but if some suit offers it to him what is he gonna say.

If he can get it good luck to him, never begrudge anybody cash

It's technically 18 million over 3 years. Which is obviously perfectly reasonable for a few TV shows and a bit of radio.......

I don't blame Wossy (the jammy humourles twat), I blame the nobheads who are handing out the moula. They spend £18m on that prick, then fill Saturday nights TV with an Elvis impersonation contest.....they make my shit stink!!!

To the Letter-Cave.....

yes its sad. most tv interviews are now subject to parameters laid down by the interviewee not the interviewer. i dont think that the interviews are poor just because we know too much already about the subject, as a good interviewer probes beyond all that and reveals previously hidden facets of interest.
i remember the FACE TO FACE progs with roy plumley entering this territory.

How can a thread entitled Ricky Hatton tonight end up with a debate about Jonothan Ross ??
What a set of washer women !!!

We'll probably be debating the state of Russias economy by the bottom of the third page

Like I said, interviews are all just part of PR organised tours, it's all facile and rubbish.

Global warming is a worry, as is Liz MacDonald's chest.

Jonathan Ross looks like a total T-W-A-T with that beard. What the f-uck's he thinking of????

I hope Putin can continue to control Russia's interest rates.

Has anyone seen the price of fish these days?
