    Setanta commentary of Cotto Vs Margs

    Anyone else thought it was utter balls? Who were they, for a start?

    I know Lampley is getting dog **** abuse for his bias towards Cotto but, my god, at least they know how to build excitement. I mean, Cotto Vs Margs didn't even need excitement building but the Setanta commentators were hopeless. It was almost as bad as the times they've had Slater from Saved By The Bell on.

    Where was Richie Woodhall? At least he's half decent.

      i downloaded the klitschko thompson fight w/ Setanta just cause I already heard the HBO version... it was a joke, Setanta sucks about as bad as possible.

      The Klitschko v. Thompson fight was more like a couple guys circle jerking about David Haye and commenting on the fight once or twice per round.

        I'm feeling you, man.

        It's a odd situation in that I really appreciate Setanta actually covering the Boxing, and making it so we Brits can at least watch the fights without having to rely on ****ing Justin TV or a dodgy Sopcast stream.

        But, my god, the commentators....what is with that?

          I know what you mean. Who was presenting this one, I've heard a couple of slightly lame ones but not too bad. Perhaps some guys but worser night. I thought they switched to the US commentators for awhile that night anyway.

                Setanta used a feed from the Top Rank network, they were american commentators.

                  LOL, that's what I said above, I thought it was just a US feed over Setanta.

                  Hehe, kidding

                    No, I think we all knew they were Americans. We just didn't know WHICH Americans.

                    I'd rather they sent Bunce and Woodhall out there, tbh.

                    Using a feed is too impersonal, if that makes sense.
