Aside from what i thought was an early stoppage, i thought the worst part about the night was the fox sports net announcers. They could take all the excitement out of a Gatti and Ward fight and then go on to suck the joy out of a fair with their tedious commentary.
please guys don't be boxing snobs. not everyone out there has the knowledge we do. i thought they did a good job. tom arnold was terrible but the other guys were ok. and like a few before said, alot of the tv audience that normally watches bdssp aren't huge boxing fans so they had to cater to that audience.
The horrible ones were the BDSSP hosts who were trying to pretend they knew anything about boxing. You know Tom Arnold doesn't know much when he actually thinks a big bicep can win a fight. It was good to hear Moorer tell him that has nothing to do with boxing.
They seemed to be speaking to a different audience than those who buy boxing on PPV; lots of generalizations and stuff that was pretty basic and not necessarily related to the fight specifically.
agree 100%
are casual fans dumber than non-casual fans? :)

well i think the ref made the right choice by stoping the fight jorov was in no shape to continue that fight as for the announcers i agree with you there are awful
They acted like they were commentating to folks who didn't watch boxing.
Maybe they were told to dumb it down since some casual fans who normally just tune in for BDSSP would be watching.
