"Steve Bunces Boxing Hour" on Setanta News

[Fenster]

I may not be the most qualified to speak on Bunce given me only having seen him a handful of times, but he always seems to come off as a bit of an ass to me. Never more then the Wlad-Thompson fight where he was disappointed in the fight and rightfully so. But after the fight he was just childish imo, maybe it was in haste or disgust, but I was a bit perturbed when he blamed it all on the American heavyweights, and that no American fighter should get a title fight for 5 years, they are all gutless, spineless ect. Those were his words.

Now, I admit that the heavyweight boxers in America have been pretty lacking lately, but who the hell is an English sports pundit to talk about gutless, spineless heavyweights making for boring fights? Excuse me, Audley, Danny, Skelton, Sprott ect. The British heavyweights are none for the better at all. It just bothered me. America has some exciting heavyweights out there, just the talent level isn't high. Britain doesn't have any talented heavyweights either but the difference is the majority of them suck to watch imo. This is true for the heavyweight division in general, so for him to single out American heavyweights just kind of pissed me off, thought it was unprofessional.

But I can see how someone like that who obviously has a passion (although at times misguided imo) can grow on someone. After all, just tune in any Wednesday or Friday to watch ESPN2 and see Teddy Atlas. I can't imagine how he is recieved overseas, it can't be good. But he's someone who FNF just would not be the same without.

Yeah he does go off on one sometimes. That is sometimes as in ALL the time.

He was always shouting about Chazz Witherspoon being the "saviour" of the heavyweights a couple of years back.

I don't think he was having a pop at America, amat. Just depressing that how could Thompson be the best America has to offer? He can't say that shit about the Brit heavyweights - publicly - because he has to interview/chat/see them all the time

Sounds like a decent shoe, didn't realise they had a lot of interviews and that. His enthusiasm can be misplaced and annoying, but he's ten times better than the dull Hart, he was commentating on the contender UK v US and he was excruciating.

Ive known Colin years, I have the same opinion of Him now as I did when I first met Him 40 years ago. He only listens when He is talking Arsehole. Buncy Lives Boxing, He does go on a bit but a good listener. Youll see him at Junior Amatuer shows all over the country He loves Boxing. Hes one of your own comes on Boxing sites Regular and will argue the Toss with anybody. So does Rawlins.
