OK, we as the more ardent fans always knew the fight was going to be pathetic...we are the nerds, and hey ho, we are proud of it!!

The general public are going to feel like they have been shafted. Many, I imagine are already saying boxing is a joke, that it is all smoke and mirrors designed to get their cash!

I'm not going to do an essay on this, Icant be bothered, but the promotional companies, and SKY need to be wary about polishing a turd, it could have a long term affect on the sport and it's credibility.

I watched the fight in a bar and most of the punters were just pleased that it ended in a ko, I think it's only the boxing community that really feels aggrieved at the way things panned out because most of you could see something like this coming.

Exactly what my greivance with tonights show is , the undercard was poor and then they barely showed any of it , the main event ended dissapointingly , its the long term that should be thought about , i envisage many people not bothering to buy the ppv next time

Why couldn't they show Hall vs Davies in full after the main event?

Was there any reason the show had to end at 11 o'clock?
