It's on 5 at 9.40 mate. Sometimes they show the undercard on Spike in the run up. Not sure though. I don't get that channel with shitty Virgin!

Is there only me who has only found out today that Eubanks has an older son (seemingly disowned) who also boxes?

I remember reading something about this ages ago. Can imagine English would be a hardline disciplinarian kind of father. Didn't he send his sons to America to box?

Seen that today myself, possibly on the Saunders undercard on April 30th. Eubank never wanted anything to do with him though.

Has he boxed pro already? What's his name?

His surname is Wilson (gen) and he's from Croydon.

Massive dilemma for me. Haven't had a takeaway for over a month and haven't had a beer for 2 weeks, so need to choose wisely

I'm on Virgin too, but I just watch the channel on Freeview.
I'm baffled by the amount of people on here who claim they can't watch it due to Virgin. I either watch it on my freeview telly in my bedroom, or turn my Virgin box off in my living room and watch the freeview channels that come built into the telly.
Am I missing something? I'm really not the most technologically aware of people, but even I can work out how to watch a TV channel that is literally standard for every television set they sell these days.

I knew you could get it on freeview but the ariel for my analogue freeview is at the other end of my livingroom. Weird shaped room. Pain in the arse!

It's a great opportunity for Blackwell after a great run of form and I hope he retains his British title, but I suspect Eubank Jnr is just that cut above and may even stop the very tough Blackwell, which should turn heads.
Eubank Jnr's stoppage of Spike O'Sullivan shows what he can be capable of, although I think Nick will test him more.
Great fight and live on Channel 5

I was talking to an old man today who'd not bothered with his 2 kids and now he was old and wanted to get to know them they've told him to leave them alone, he's gutted.
I think Eubank will win on points though I'll be pulling for Nick to win, I prefer his personality and admire his trainer, Gary Lockett.

I'm with you and fancy junior for the win , but would love to see Blackwell cause an upset and the more I see of jnr the less I think of him as a top contender at world level , he takes too many shots for me even if he has a great chin.
