fantastic. with chris john v rocky juarez , its like we are getting 2 fights for the price of one. what a weekend of boxing. it will take staying up all night saturday or else most of sunday to watch all the boxing. big thanks to setanta.

if setanta could show the odd bill here and there apart from their contracts then we could not ask any more of them. basically if you want to see foreign action live on tv on a regular basis you need setanta.

Could be one of the best fights this year. I'm really looking forward to it. The number 1 & 2 in the lightweight division lock horns.

Superb. I love those Irish TV people.

Just a fcuked up thought: as this is for the vacant WBO and WBA title, does that mean the winner becomes WBA super champ and the WBA immediately declared vacant?

Paulus Moses is already the "regular" WBA champ, but Diaz-Marquez is for the vacant "super-championship." If that makes sense. If it doesn't I don't blame you - it doesn't make sense to me either - effing stupid WBA! :evil:

Welcome Steve. It's good to see you on here. I hear about you posting at Eastside Boxing and wonder why you don't post here, considering this forum is attached to the infamous Boxrec.com! Thanks for stopping by.

The home of boxing!

Let Sky have Khan and Cleverly and Brook in overpriced or completely non competitive fights.

Setanta, nice one, for showing the real FIGHTS. This is what we watch boxing for. How much bloody boxing this weekend...

john isn't very exciting to watch.

he's a defensive stick and mover. :box:

good at what he does.

and marquez was robbed against him in my opinion.

real bad decision for me that one. :oops:
