Brian Magee v Mads Larsen. Live on Setanta tonight. 8:45-10:30.
The weekend's proper fight.
With me in the studio will be Paul McCloskey. Neil Sinclair will be in the commentary chair with our man Will.
This is the start and I need to let the people know that there is an audience - emails please to: [email protected]
All topics, as usual.
Let's pile the emails deep.

Thanks and enjoy.

I take it this is a no-show in England?

Correct, but let's show the men and women who run TV that there is a boxing audience - are we just going to roll over onto our backs, lift our legs up and watch SKY's Friday offerings with a stupid grin on our faces?

Adios and thanks.

Not on Setanta in the UK

but try your local Irish centre, I am going to ring around in a bit to find out which ones in Manchester have an Irish SKY card which will enable them to show it.

Buncey, both fighters have had long periods of inactivity - how will this effect the fight??

Also, Larsen has recently inherited a large seven figure sum of money - is his heart still in boxing or is it now just a hobby that he is job at.

Good stuff mate, hope you get a showing somewhere.

As for Buncey, keep up the good fight and hope to see you back on our screens as soon as possible!

Email sent and I am now a Setanta customer again.

Best of luck tonight Buncey.

He has? Havent been written anything about that in the danish press, do you have more info?

I think his heart is still in the game and that he will show up in very good sharpe, the question just is if has lost reflexes ect.

I'll never put another penny in Setanta's pocket again.

They took a month's direct debit 4 days after they went off-air.

Then they sold everyone's email addresses to ESPN, who then went on to spam everyone to buy their channel. This was a massive violation for a company to do, especially if you opt out when asked (which they have to legally).

What time does this fight start?

And will there be a U.K. stream for it?

Gomez, sorry about that. I hope you told ESPN to get some boxing on damn quick!
However, Setanta went under before ESPN came about in the UK - therefore, Setanta was no longer trading and could not have legally sold any contacts because there would not have been anywhere to pay the money. It's a liquidation thing. However, somebody could have nicked the list and punted it! I have so far been asked for my 5,000 boxing email list about twenty times! I've refused every time.
Adios,

Adios,

To be honest, the email thing didn't bother me Steve. It's naughty but not life threatening. What chuffed me off, was that they took my loot several days after the station went offline.

Because they used the debit-card method, rather than a direct debit - you couldn't actually cancel the fecker.

I really want to watch this fight. I have watched him fight a few times and spoke to him after his knockout to Froch at Bethnal Green a few years ago. Plus he was jobbed by Tsypko a few years ago for the same belt. I hope he comes good and wins as he thoroughly deserves it.

any links for this fight plz

No sh*t Freiheit !

He was terrible and was blowing out of his ass without really doing much.

If Froch beats Kessler, do you think Magee vs Kessler would happen ?

I think Froch will beat Kessler, but I cant see Kessler wanting to fight Magee. Kessler will probably think its "beneath" him.
