    Default Steve Bunce boxing hour or SKYs Ringside? which is best?

    Glad Ringside is back on sky but miss The Boxing hour.It was raw and off the cuff rather than Ringside which at times seems quite scripted.

    Love both shows but I think the Boxing Hour was better for hard core boxing fans.

    I feel Ringside has gone a bit shirt and collar for my liking. Buncy was funny though.

    The best ringside's have been the one's where Wlad has been a guest.

    Apart from those two episodes, I don't like the way Johnny Nelson sticks his tongue up every guest's arse. It was funny when George Groves went on there and put him in his place, though.

    Ringside feels too sanitized & I always admired how on Setanta they wouldn't balk at mentioning fights being shown on Sky. Contrast with how Sky have appeared to try & airbrush Amir Khan out of the boxing landscape recently

    I like boxing hour, bunce is very good, he gets deep with the fighters mind.
    Ringside is good but agree it seems abit scripted.

    Johnny Nelson is terrible in this role. He is totally cringeworthy. He asks questions, that are provided for him, but doesn't know how to improvise when the question/answers merge together.

    Like Jaz said, the Bunce show pissed all over Ringside purely because Sky still virtually ignore any fight that doesn't take place on their platform (plus Bunce is far better at interviewing). A few weeks ago Carl Froch turns up on Ringside, which was strange considering Sky had nothing to do with him, then surprise suprise, a few weeks later FRoch has left Fat Mick and is now live on Sky.

    However, it's certainly better to have the programme than not

    i have to say i like ringside

    the boxing hour was good, but some of it was well shit, people on the phone you couldnt hear and guests who couldnt speak

    and buncey big upped everyone too

    ringside has some good features on and its not just 3 dudes sat at a table

    Whilst i think Bunce is way over the top, I prefer his show.

    I am also slowly not liking Teddy Atlas, he was being a prick to B Hop. FFS show some respect.
