    I've been watching IFL for about 10 years, I love the channel
    Only just found this channel. I hope it becomes a hit for Adam, a true legend and gentleman of British boxing.

    Kugs gets so much stick from Boxing fans, but no one can ever deny his contribution to our sport. Of course we have the right to criticise, but the man deserves all the respect he gets from true Boxing fans🙌🏾

  • @johnnydeco5508
    @johnnydeco5508 19 дней назад +15

    IFLTV has to be one of the most unprofessional RUclips channels ever created. The only reason it became successful was because it gave the fans a very raw and informal behind-the-scenes glimpse of boxing.
    Back in the day, IFL was dreadful. The audio was terrible, the camera was wobbly and out of focus, and the questions were 💩.
    That's the ACTUAL REASON we have so many youtube boxing channels today! Kugan was just bad at making videos! And literally everyone who watched IFL would say to themselves,
    ... "I could do better than that!"
    But today Kugan is trying to act all fancy and sophisticated, saying stuff like, "I believe there should be a women's fight on every card."
    Do you actually believe that, Kugan, or are you just saying it because it's what Eddie would like you to say?

    You sat on the fence for every bloody question. You didn't answer one question straight. I don't know if that's because you couldn't work out what Adam was asking you (which I probably assume is the case) or because you genuinely wanted to sit on the fence and give a nothing answer. All in all, a pathetic showing from you but not surprising.
