Yes, it was brilliant. Following on from a great Ringside as well. Sky are trying, but can only buy the fights. Thankfully, last nights was great but it wouldnt have been there fault if it was a stinker.

Well done?

Good show, but thats what we pay the subscription for in the 1st place.

They have given us what we paid for.

You don't applaud Sainsburys when you get your shopping home, you pay for a service and should get the right product/quality to justify the price. SKY SPORTS is - for me - ony for the Boxing,I do not watch football.

SKY should thank us.

2 Decent fights but with 4 channels why couldn't they stay on an hour longer and give us the interviews and undercard highlights.

(1) would have been great to see some undercard
(2) Jim Watt could have said even less in his commentary (his repetitiveness drives me bad - not at his worst last night but CDB)

Yes well done sky, more fights from Europe please - not just those involving a brit would be appreciated. I hope Sky's ringside show (although I doubt) will show undercard fights from both bills. e.g. two old stagers Danny Williams and Robin Reid.

No escaping the fact Messiah - it isn't a free service. I subscribe for the boxing, nothing else.

Maybe an article featuring THE MESSIAH poll on sky cancellations should be in the July edition?

Sky should be showing more quality boxing lke last night. I would like them to show more live fights from outside the UK. They got enough channels.

Agree with the comment about the interviews - in the last week we have failed to hear from either Brook, Rhodes or Macklin. Pretty poor really.

I know it's not the point but the videos of interviews are online or on Sky Sports App for iPhones if you want to see them. I agree though what's 2mins extra for each fighter

Yeah he's dire.
