Be curious though to see just what the future holds for them? As for KOTV on Channel 4 you mentioned well I've been recording that on the series link for well over a year now so I don't have to stay up till the early hours. Shame when commentator/voice over Nick Halling left the show but must admit the other bloke who's taken his place is doing a fine job. Don't know if you caught the half hour show of the best KO's of 2011 the other night on ESPN but that was well worth a look. Now just one last thing is when you mentioned Tyson Fury being on channel 5 for the next few months - I'll go for 1 or 2 months at the most then channel 5 will have to find something else to put on because (only my opinion) "and I hope I'm wrong" he's just waiting to be KO'd!

Just one more thing and it's about channel 4's KOTV programme they showed a couple of day's ago. There was a short tribute to Smokin Joe Frazier. He didn't actually say it on the programme but he was renowned for saying that
Boxing was the only sport where -

Ya brains got shook
Ya money got took
And ya name ended up in the Undertakers book

RIP - Smokin Jo Frazier

hi , i agree i think tyson fury is an accident waiting to happen , and like you say it will be interesting to see what channel 5 do if/when he does get ko'ed , i cant wait for boxnation all the behind scenes , bunceys boxing hour , etc etc , ive got sky sports , i would love to get rid of them (pricey) , but cant because they are still showing some good fights , it would be great if boxnation worked with matchroom who have a great stable of boxers and prizefighter , and hatton ,and hennessey, we would no longer need sky sports
