I usually like Kugan's videos but the Haye interviews seem really biased towards Bellew and make Haye look bad. Even the titles are biased e.g. Haye Loses The Plot, Goes insane, Intense Haye..and some of the questions are not the usual quality e.g. Do you think you lose your cool in there?
is this channel owned by Hearn or has connections with him? **** i thought i finally found a good video channel....
who do you watch which isn't biased to recommend
i thought kugan was from essex?
I concede. You are correct.

yea IFL has gone full on retard in the last few months
kugan and the other chap are up eddies bumhole, i dont even visit the channel as much
there is a clear bias for certain fighters of the matchroom variety
Kugan is a nob. cannot take even constructive criticism about his channel. the sound quality is terrible too.
however if you want to see real bias, then watch a channel like dontae's boxing nation or sally eckbach's ESNews.
IFL TV remain pretty much neutral for the most part and they consistently upload videos of press conferences, post fight interviews and extended interviews where other channels are not as active. So have to give them credit for that.
If you're going to get money from sponsors Kugan and make us sit through the sponsor filled intros then get a better camera with better sound you fat cnt and sort your nasty cough too.
Did he block you on Twitter then or what happened?
Agree about the terrible sound on some vids, like the Eubank vids at Xmas, a directional mic would have cut out the sound of plates and background noise, not to mention a separate threshold mic for kugan so his Darth Vader doesn't dominate. Small changes like that could really push them to next level.

I think these video's below where IFL TV's peak for me! what bizarre surreal footage! IFL has transcended alternative sporting media in my opinion! I don't even bother to watch Sky Sports News or even Box-nation's Bunce's hour! because of the amount of raw news IFL produces on a weekly basis.......
Boxing at its best is a story line, it is theater! Boxing is not just violence! every single fight has a plot, that is played out through alternative media coverage!
It's seemed quite strained between kugz and Hearn lately, maybe since helder and kugan got a boxnation job, i.e Frank Warren, but they seem you still get access to Hearn,matchroom and sky, regularly interviewing Nelson, Adam Smith, froch etc. Dillian whyte is pissed off with fast Eddie at the moment too (his interviews are funny as hell though), as was quigg a few months ago after the frampton loss. I guess kugan spends time with these guys and relays their frustrations to Eddie in the interviews, where he then has to justify himself

Kugan is friends with Tony Bellew and that camp, while he seems to have near no interaction with Haye; you add that it's clear that there's beef between Bellew and Haye, and Kugan acts accordingly.
Like most of the quality video reporters in boxing, Kugan seems to want to keep objectivity but he also leans heavily on his relationships/places he can get access/folks willing to give him some time.
Eddie Hearn seemed to give Kugan the access needed to get his thing going, but you bring up anything related to the Warren/Hearn rivalry and it becomes painfully clear that Heearn doesn't own Kugan.
I think considering he started as basically just a bloke with a camera, without any formal training or anything, he does a good job staying relatively unbiased during interviews. He generally keeps his thoughts to himself and lets the interviewee do the talking.
He is naturally biased as a journo towards those who give him access and soundbites. Hearn gives him a hell of a lot of access. Tyson Fury used to as well, and BJS.
I like his videos a lot more than other hand held camera interview guys. IFL is quickly becoming an essential part of British boxing fraternity, and big part of fight week hype for major events.
There's an interview where they say they're somehow related through marriage.
Saunders isn't a "pikey' by the way, Irish travellers are known as Pikeys. Saunders is Romani gypsy.
i was being super cerial obviously..
I'd love to hear more about romanies tho m8
why would you bother watchin the channel? I liked it years back when it first started but now its just internet baiting with its videos and titles and content.
From the UK, I prefer boxing news or boxing online, can't remember the name but I have it liked on my fb and I read a lot of the articles they post up as they pop up on my newsfeed.

He is very friendly with Hearn. I believe they're from the same neck of the woods too? - I wouldn't put too much stock in the titles of the videos. He's going to put the titles that are going to entice people to click and Haye is a bigger name. In general i think he's much closer with the Matchroom team and fighters than he is with Haye anyway.
The channel definitely isn't owned by Hearn or anything. Kugan and James also work for Warren/Box Nation. In some of their videos they use BoxNation microphones.
Kugan is also friends with Billy Joe Saunders away from boxing and they had known each other years and they actually are related some way, like one of Kugan's relatives married a relative of Saunders, something like that. So he's obviously going to have some emotional involvement there too.
I've no doubt they're biased in some ways. They spend a lot of time around fighters and promoters and have probably become more friendly with some over others. I don't see a problem with that, it's probably unavoidable but at least they're professional enough to remain impartial on camera, unlike Elie Sechback who comes across as a fanboy with a camera phone and just sucks certain peoples c0cks and acts like a bitter ***** towards others.
