Thanks for the tip mate.

I used to use that guy a lot at one time, always found him to be very reliable. Often wondered how much he'd be affected by Sky finally pulling their fingers out, seems we have our answer.

What do you mean by this?

Do Sky ban their fights being sold?

I've ordered from Paul Blake once, and I had to ring up Boxing Monthly in the end cos he took so long.

Yes he took about a month to send my videos and the quality wasn't that great.

What I mean Southpaw is Sky (then the Beeb) finally started showing regular American action a couple of years ago. Unfortunately for Mr Blake Ringside Videos outlived it's usefulness.

Yeah with ever improving domestic coverage of foreign fights the traders need to find a new ingredient to keep people interested in a tough market. Dominic Foley is expensive yet good quality and fights for you offer fighter series packages, some are relying on the upsurge in DVD, red dragon gets my vote if he is still going and Paul Billingham is solid as well.
