Thoughts on Sky commentary last night.......

Our commentary in the UK is awful compared to our US counterparts, that's why i'm glad that for Primetime PPV fights they just stream the Showtime broadcast so that we get exactly the same as the US. The Sky commentators are too biased and are acting as though they are still trying to sell the fight to us even though we have already paid and are watching the fight they're trying to sell.

As a blow-by-blow guy he should just put words to what happens and provide the appropriate level of exitement. Just off the bat I cannot remember any blow-by-blow guy giving a good scoring on a consistent basis. BITD Jim Watt was excellent in analysing fights IMO. Has he slipped? BITD Jim Watt was excellent in analysing fights IMO. Has he slipped? __________________ My problem with what Watt is when he makes a point he bemoans the point constantly throughout the fight, its like he is constantly nagging, he says stuff like " see Ian no jab what so ever" but he will say it like a 1000x and your like, yeah we know Jim we heard you there first 500 times you said it, he also says bang on the chin all the while Lol, a shot could land on the temple and he would say" full bloodied shots bang on the chen!!

glens and ian do make a good combo but glen is really busy at the moment,hes training a few good prospect fighters up in newcastle,i think they are cubans yeh i remember that...how are they doing ??

It'd be nice for Jim Watt is get off the fence and give an opinion of what's going on.

I dont why they dont just keep Ian Darke with Glen Mcorey...they are a much better pair up IMO:boxing: glens and ian do make a good combo but glen is really busy at the moment,hes training a few good prospect fighters up in newcastle,i think they are cubans

I think Darkie is good for excitement as a blow by blow man but you dont get much from him from a tactical stand point, although i dont mind that so much as i like commentators to make the fight seem more exciting, thats why i dont mind Gus Johnson besides him not being very clued up on Boxing and being a bit of a homer when its a Showtime fighter. BTW Darkie cannot score a fight imo. As a blow-by-blow guy he should just put words to what happens and provide the appropriate level of exitement.

Gutteridge was superb. Great sense of humour as well. I think Ian Darke is OK. At least he has been in the fights I've heard. First time I heard him was in Tyson-Douglas (live). He was excellent there I think.

jim watt said froch would never be world champ... Haye was shite yesterday but the commentators siad otherwise... pretty much everyone is surprised froch became world champion, he has a very amateurish syule and lots of flaws but its to his credit he accomplished as much as he has with just heart and durability. none the less its against all odds he managed to become world champion, i wouldnt expect someone as delsusional as yourself to see that. haye wasnt shit last night, he wasnt great eighter but certainly not shit. decent performance, got hit way too much but he still got the job done in style.

Gutteridge was my favourite commentators all-time to, miss his commentary, Jim Watt no so much Lol Gutteridge was superb. Great sense of humour as well. I think Ian Darke is OK.

worst commentating I've ever seen in my life "oh those punches didn't look like they hurt" after Haye blasts the back of Ruiz's head. Yeah I guess if illegal blows don't "hurt" that makes them legal. What a ****ing dipshit.

Saddens me. Watt & Gutteridge was my favourite commentators all-time. Do you think Watt is losing it as in punch-drunk syndrome? Gutteridge was my favourite commentators all-time to, miss his commentary, Jim Watt no so much Lol

im not a fan of watt. i like his insight in the build up to fights but his during a fight he drives me mad

Our commentry is shíte.

Thoughts on Sky commentary last night. what did you think? They called Haye the fastest HW since Ali and Jim Watt was calling Darkie, Reg, he obviously thought he was talking to Reg Gutridge for a min. 1.06 of round 1 he calls Ian Darke, Reg. Saddens me. Watt & Gutteridge was my favourite commentators all-time. Do you think Watt is losing it as in punch-drunk syndrome?

Fastest HW since Ali and saying the rabbit punch didnt count because Ruiz was on his way down was enough for me. I turned down the volume and listened to music.
