Excuse me, but it was advertised at 9:20pm on ITV tonight, and I tune in to see bloody Stars In Their Eyes!
What's going on?

It was on ITV2.
Good win for Arthur
However, he will definitely struggle at world title level.

Damn I have ITV2 as well! I'm at my mate's place, I should have got mum to record it.
Oh well....

Still don't think he has the tools to win a genuine world title.

Depends on what happens with the world title situation, I'd give him a fighting chance vs Peden but I wouldn't give him much hope vs Morales, Pacquiao or Barrera.
Avenues might open up at Lightweight though.

Theres talk of Arthur vs Scott Harrison.
I can't see Arthur making 9st though, or Harrison for much longer for that matter.

How about that new WBA titlist that took out the much vaunted 3K Battery on the Toney - Ruiz undercard?

I'd definitely think that one would be at super-feather.

I didn't realise it was on ITV2 at first. Only saw it from Round 5. Good fight from what I saw though.

Vicente Mosquera, he is one of the n ew breed of Panamanians coming through. Boxing Monthly had a little feature on them recently, seems he knocked down 3k Battery three times so he must be packing away a fair bit of power.

Ha what a clown. Personally I managed to go to the fight and tape it on the right channel. Not a difficult thing to acheive for most.
And to think you once said " I am more knowledgable than you as many people will agree". Class!
