I realise that putting on even a small show requires a lot of effort. I'm a competing thai boxer who loves the sport but even I don't enjoy watching 3*2 novice fights.

I was at that level once and I realise that we all have to start somewhere but how the hell some fights get on TV is beyond me!

I've stayed up till late at night to watch thai boxing and the quality of SOME of the fights has been abysmal. Two guys bitch slapping each other for 30 seconds then holding onto each other falling about the ring for the rest of the fight.

Why is that shown on TV? Its hard enough to watch that if you do the sport but ask yourself, if you had never seen MT before would you sit and watch it?

As far as I can make out, a production company is paid to film the event and the footage is given to Sky or Channel 5 to air.

Can you blame them for putting it on so late? At the end of the day we moan about the other crap that they show like footballers wifes but thousands and thousands of British people will watch that. How many people will sit and watch thai boxing of poor quality?
