Good read and some good points raised. Recent undercards in the UK have improved but some, especially in America, are terrible.

Ringnews 24 and Topclass boxing, Eat sleep repeat boxing also take them
It could be improved by one of the terrestrial TV channels doing a similar show to ESPN in the States (Friday Night Fights). They could use this to showcase some of the talent coming through and spread the boxing out to smaller venues.
Whether its viable or not commercially is another question but it could certainly improve things and get viewers for up and coming boxers for when they move on to bigger fights and venues. If these could show British/European/Commonwealth title fights then that would be better for both viewers and fighters.

A platform that consists of a boxing population in excess of 10 would be ideal

Boxing 24 Forum bud. There are a few guys with youtube channels that use it a lot, quite a few other writers also.
I find that the "general" sections is just idiots and fanboys but the British section is far better.

D4 banned from there too?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sadly there are a few D4's on there on the general forum bud. They get banned but come up with alts as they ban the email address but not the IP's I think?
the fanboys are the worst. There might not be loads of boxing fans on JA but getting rid of him improved the boxing section 10 fold.
Being genuine if I met him IRL I would spark him the fook out!!
I was at the Towell night at the Radison in Glasgow and he tried to use his death as a point scoring effort. I could deal with his normal bull$hit but that was a horrible night for me to watch what happened there in the flesh got to me a bit.
I wouldnt say Im really that violent a guy sure Iv competed at karate and boxed a bit but im pretty calm in the most part. If I had met him shortly after that thread god knows mate.... god knows !!!
