    John Rawling's star is certainly on the rise. I was surprised he jumped ship from Five Live to ITV. At times he ventures into the pompous - but he stands no bull****. Richie Woodhall has excellent boxing knowledge, although his monotone delivery can be pretty lifeless.

    I wish Reg Gutteridge were still around.

      I personally think that the partnership of jim watt and ian darke(especially watt) is the best in world boxing.They are slightly biased towards british fighters but dont go overboard.
      Those two clowns were so biased on saturday evening it is not funny. Hatton landed a shot early in the second round and they thought he was coming back. Right before he got knocked out, they were claiming that it was an exciting war. It was a one-sided massacre!!!!! They were not watching the same fight that was taking place

        You are right sometimes I switch off the sound of my telly because of biase.I would rather depend on the sound from the American stream than some of these so called commentators

          I got annoyed by some commentators. I guess they just have to limit side comments.

            Most British Commentators are total fanboys of the British Boxer. I cant stand Johnny Nelson or Steve Bunce. They get on my wick something shocking.

            Don't know the guys name but he was with Jim Watt on the Wlad-Haye fight. Cant stand him most times either.

            My fave pairing was Jim Watt and Reg Gutteridge. Harry Carpenter was damn good too. I love Barry M.

              Adam Smiths knowledge is superb, he's a good front man but I don't like him as a commentator.

              Jim Watt has the voice but he can talk some ****e at times.

              Glen Mccrory is useless, he also chatted up my mum once, prick.

              Barry Mcguigan talks the most sense out the lot, he's the best analyst by a country mile, he got Haye v Wlad spot on.

              Richie Woodhall talks sense but gets far too excited at times and his accent doesn't sound right.

              Jonny Nelson is hit and miss, without being racist, he favours the blacks a hell of a lot, his dick sucking of DeGale was embarrssing.

              Ian Darke is the best commentator by a country mile.

              Nicky Piper looks like a lesbian.

              John Rawling is okay, prefer Darke though, it's a shame Darke only seems to do the big fights now.

              Dave Clark is a good anchor.

              Who have I missed?

              My dream setup would be - Dave Clark as anchor, Jonny Nelson, Barry Mcguigan and a current relevant fighter in the studio.

              Adam Smith interviewing and Ian Darke and Jim Watt commentating.

                Shouty Scottish guy? WTF

                Australians have yet to figure out how to pronouce any sentence properly.I'm not joking either. You raise the last syllable on every sentence (it's called raised intonation) which means you's can make ANY sentence sound like it's a question.

                Put that in your pipe and smoke it. "Shouty Scottish guy" tut tut lol

                  An Aussie then a SCOUSE saying a Scots accent is annoying. This is beyond......
