    I have to say it, This is a great program on setanta-i learn so much about boxers that i would not get anywhere else on this show and the hour flies in, if you dont watch it, check it out, or for those who feel that they dont get enough mainstream news about boxing this is for you..

    Opinions from others welcome..

    Rush Boxing club and Rush Martial Arts head coach.

    The only thing I dont like about Bunces boxing hour is Steve Bunce. He does my head in - he knows his sh*t but he is a headwrecker...his 'telling it like it is trying to be controversial' irritates me. Some people like Bunce because of it, I just find him annoying.

    Good show overall though. The news, fighters and trainers they have on are great.

    I really like his passion and enthusiasm and his non stop
    verbal rants. He sure can talk and he makes you listen. He's so far
    from monotonous and boring, and he is very articulate and concise with
    it

    I thought I was the only one!Steve Bunce get's on my wick big time.
    Tell it like it is my ass, did you hear his rant about Amir Khan, leave the kid alone!!!
    Informative show though with good guests.

    steve is great i used to hate him but i have taking a liking to him . very informative show and you have to love the guys enthusiasum for the sport him and the kerrminater work well together altoghether a very good show in my book the only problem id have would be that its on too short

    Didnt see the leave the kid alone rant about Khan but I have seen him on more than one ocassion go off on one and then have to apologise live on air for offending people.

    I like the co-host - but bunce talks over him and sometimes he is just plain rude to the bloke.

    No doubting his knowledge and enthusiasm but no amount of either will change the fact that he bugs the life out of me.

    I like him. Sometimes, like when he's on about David Haye especially, he's irritating.

    But generally it's an informative show, I just wish they'd make it available online on their site, I only have Setanta back at my Dad's so I miss it all too often.

    Bunce is best though in the middle of the night, when he looks like ****, gets ridiculously annoyed, and bollocks someone out of it.

    Then he goes 'Look, I tell it like it is, I'm the man, etc'. Classic

    Me too, only get to see it in dads house. Youtube do clips, but it can
    be a pain searching

    It was Bunce saying "Leave the kid alone" btw, he was giving out about people poking holes in Khan's "victory" over MAB.
    Here is the link for the whole show on Setanta:

    Its a great show, they really get through alot in an hour.
    I could'nt imagine Bunce ever not speaking, that man was bulit
    to to speak, talk about the gift of the gab.

    I gets a good aul buzz off him. he's a mad bastard. Wired to the moon !

    Great show, love his passion for it, id say he could stay on for the whole day. He's like a cross between one of the lads and a boxing encyclopedia.
