Bunce is great, he's grown on me

Bunce is becoming a legend.

MightyWarrior · Post by **MightyWarrior** » 28 Mar 2009, 17:38

Makes such a difference having a real fan like Bunce fronting the weekly show, talks about all the fights, unlike the surreal shows the muppets at Sky used to put on, ignoring anything they don't show.
Getting those clips from other channels takes some doing as well.

Exactly, Buncey is a fan and knows his stuff plus he adds a bit of charisma with his down to earth style. On a sidenote the atmosphere seems a bit flat in the arena. The MC bellowed "British Title" to try and rouse the fans and was met with an eerie silence

Sly Sports a wankers. It is such class for him and Setanta to do promote other fiths and shows. Bunce is fantastic, speaks from the heart and has genuine passion, doesn't manufacture it and read from the screen.

Richie Woodhall beat me to it but I was thinking that Quigley doesn't appear in tip-top shape. Dodson looks ripped.

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:12

Quigley should aim for the body and he can stop Dodson!!

Dodson dropped in the second and badly cut.

Finch · Post by **Finch** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:14

I know everyone says they are in tip top shape, but Dodson really did seem to come across very assured of himself pre fight. There was something about it the way he came across i thought he would actually win this, especcially when he came in ripped and Quigley looks a touch fleshy.

Surprised how the second round went.

John Watson looked good. Needs to get his stamina sorted for 10 rounders though.

David Price looked really good. Leagues above Tyson Fury. Price also needs to sort out his stamina, though.

Hope this doesn't finish early, it could turn into a great scrap!

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:16

Quigley should go downstairs - Dodson clearly HATES it to the body.

Is that Paul Ince in the crowd?

Finch · Post by **Finch** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:18

Yeah Incey in the crowd.

This is a quality fight.

Looks like the Guv'nor

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:24

Richie "Believe You Me" Woodhall is enjoying himself anyway.

This is a real brawl and a good scrap.

youngrell · Post by **youngrell** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:31

Finally the Guv'nor gets a shout out

REAL_DEAL · Post by **REAL_DEAL** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:39

surpised that no one has mentioned derry matthews getting stopped again, not sure if it was a cut or not.

Wasn't shown was it. I was hoping they might sneak it in after the Dodson fight.

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:45

Didn't realise Derry was stopped again. He's suddenly become ultra-fragile.

Fair play to Quigley to be still in it after ten rounds; I thought he was a wee fatty but his conditioning must be sound enough.

Wrists · Post by **Wrists** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:46

Interesting how George Groves is viewed as a top prospect.

Whats peoples thoughts on Travis Dickinson bearing in mind he beat Groves twice in the amateurs??

I ask because I am a Gateshead boy and the fact that Maloney has signed both of the Dickinsons has caused a few ripples up here

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:49

Frigging hell Quigley nearly has Dodson going again in the eleventh. The body for f**k sake, hunt the body!!! Everytime Tony lands there, Dodson wilts.

My T Sharp · Post by **My T Sharp** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:50

Cracking fight, Dodson down

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:51

Jesus, Dodson down twice in the 12th.

Finch · Post by **Finch** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:52

what a fight, thought Dodson was gonna win that

steve689 · Post by **steve689** » 28 Mar 2009, 18:52

What a war. Dodson stopped in the 12th, face a bloody, battered mess. Quigley showed great stamina, even with a flabby tummy
