jeez have they kidnapped the hbo production team, it's virtually identical to 24/7.

cheers

Cheers for that Bigmark, that was a cracking watch. Palle has one strange accent though.

That's awesome. It suffers a bit for having to follow six, as opposed to two, characters, introducing them all to the audience, but it's still quality.

I guess we're going to have to stop lauding HBO for their terrific production quality and start saying that the Americans in general just flat out know how to do quality hype.

Anyway, who thinks sky should do Moore-Rhodes Fight Camp 360?

Does Steve Wood have a plane like Dan Goossen?

Brilliant video.

I have the man love for Big Mark.

this was quality really well done sky should take note on how to build up there ppv fights, cant wait for next saturday


come on froch

Quality show.......whent and ordered the pay per view straight after watching it. Can't wait for this tournament. Loved watching the promoters negotiate. I suspect the best arguments were off camera though. And why does Kalle Sauerland sound like he's from Peckham via Berlin?

Spoke surprisingly good english yeah... I think froch didn't get it easy if I'm honnest, he ended up with two very difficult fights in the round robin stage (Kesslar and Abrhams) does anyone think thats because the amercian promoters seemed more clued up than Hennessy?

excellent stuff, FFs Sky take note.

Born in South Africa, raised in London, apparently. Son of Wilfried Sauerland.

Nice find

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

so what? he seems to come across very well and its very sharp. I guess you prefer Meaty Micks barrow boy approach?

I like what I've seen of Kalle. He's obviously not someone to sit back and live off his Dad's success. He seems like a hard worker and a nice guy. He could end up being a very good person to have in the sport. And I think one of his guys (Kessler, Abraham) are going to win.

Excellent show

That was excellent.

That bloke at showtime deserves a medal for getting this on - and I have to say the promoters need some plaudits as well.

If you ask a fighter whether he wants a fight its normally not a problem - the wrangling and the ar*e twitching is done at TV Executive and promoter levels thats where the fights are normally scuppered.

This is a minor bloody miracle this tournament is on.

I really hope Carl Froch does the business - and Meaty Mick gets his rewards for having the bottle to get all of this on too.

Yeah thanks for link Mark

I loved that, infact my only gripe was that it wasn't long enough

Loved the whole Promoters round table meeting, wouldn't mind a reality show on just them

Taylor vs Abraham is gonna be one hell of a Fight and same night we get Froch vs Dirrel infront of 8,000 people in Nottingham

Great stuff thanks Mark.

Primetime really should get this on their channel.

It would def boost sales for the PPV, I was going to watch it on a dodgy internet stream but felt guilty doing that after watching the programme so I splashed out the £15.

Frochy is easily the most well-spoken fighter in this tourney! Dirrell and Ward let their promoters speak for them, Abraham is a master of broken English, Kessler comes across a straight-up tit, and I won't even start on Taylor!

Thanks for posting the link. That was a good watch.

I like Kessler; he comes across well, imo. Taylor's very likeable, but lacks confidence.

Cheers Bigmark for the link

The countdown show and the return of big daddy Bunce i will defo be ordering the event now.

Loved it I cannot wait for these fights, every boxer worth there salt should want to do something like this. On another note and as Apollo Creed would say Mick's tongue didn't come through customs

I can't ever like Taylor after watching this interview (which immediately followed his cringe-worthy performance against Spinks):
