    like someone said I think it is the bosses at Sky who basiclly tell them what to say. They do it with every sport that involves the English/British teams. Football, Rugby union/league, Tennis, Boxing. It's always biased towards the brits. Steve Bunce and Colin Hart are only ones in British Boxing who say what is on there mind and not arsed if they offended someone.

      maybe they are in a robotic state with a chip in their heads,if you do not like it do not watch it,no body told you to watch it,it is none of my business who they talk to after the fight,my business is who is fighting and was it an entertaining fight,i could not care less who and what they do when the fight is over

        You say that like we have a choice...its either HD on Sky or an internet stream that COULD cut out at any moment.

          In most occassions only SKY will be showing the fights unless I go to watch a stream which I do to get full coverage.Sky are so poor at broadcasting,when Ricky Hatton fought Manny Pacquiao I ended up watching the ESPN stream,it was more informative and enjoyable,they were actually interviewing real boxers like Hopkins,Mosley and others who were there,meanwhile SKY was just showing us their commentators and a set of scales.

          After every fight,it's important to hear what the opponent has to say.If you notice on HBO,they dont just interview American fighters,they will interview the winner and the loser.Those are things that add value to the whole fight.Remember with such services these are the things which add enjoyment.

            i am not interested in any after fight excuses i pay to watch a fight and afterwards there is a winner a loser or a draw i do not care what they are thinking or saying,they do not have any influence on me i am university educated and i do not need a pug to tell me anything about the fight,do your talking in the ring,so you at hbo could learn a lesson or two from sky,sky knows they are not interested in lame duck excuses that american fighters have to say after a bout

                The only gripe I have against SKY is Ian Darke. I just don't like the way he is so over the top. He blows everything out of proportion.

                From what I've seen, I like Johnny Nelson and Colin Hart the most.

                  I'm a post grad myself and so are many boxing fans.Good for you if you only watch the fight but to many the build up and the post fight stuff is all part of the experience.Those who do not care about post fight stuff can always change channels because all sports always show post fight interviews eg football and rugby.When Football fans watch interviews of the man of the match and managers that all add value to the event.

                    Why the fuck did they not show the Merchant interviews?

                    I wish I could firebomb the Sky offices for pulling this **** every time.

                      **** up ya clown.

                      I'm not one of Watt's biggest fans but I've never heard anyone coming away with that BS before, that they can't understand him.
