British commentary vs American Commentary

[The Gully Gad]

Its it me or is British commentary so boring and unenthusiastic , i love lampley and atlas.

I second that...

But i love you Duke your in a class of your own...

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

British boxing coverage as a whole is vile.

[Duke McKenzie_]

Check my sig for an example of The Duke in action, kids.


HBO:
Lampley - flag-waving HBO boy homer. (Note how Lampley even has to pronounce other countries in an accent... when he did a Katsidis fight he kept going "and Katsidis is from (puts on inexplicable Australian accent) Australia")

Kellerman - Boggle-eyed, ****e-spouting fanboy.

Merchant - The good guy. Rock solid, even if it takes him ten minutes to complete a sentence.

Lederman - A eunuch.

Lewis - Without the word "definitely" the guy has no commentary.



The Best:
He's getting old, but still Col. Bob Sheridan



ITV:
McKenzie and Rawlings are a pair of ****wits. Except.. I AM Duke McKenzie, so I'm the best, kid - I JUST WILL NOT BE DENIED!


The worst:
Atlas. Yeah, he talks sense. But REPEATEDLY. Incessantly. Shut the **** up.



The funniest:
Steve Holdsworth, Eurosport. The guy is totally INSANE. I was gonna link to him here, but my youtube vid of it has been rejected due to "copyright claim by TF1".

I love it when he starts being racist and you can hear his co-commentators cringe.

One of my favourites was when he said "I wonder if there'll ever be a fight between a man and a woman? Mind you, I guess you can say there has been if you count Jane Couch."

His co-commentator (think this time it was Richie Woodhall) audibly cringed and tried to joke out of it: "Careful, Steve, she'll be after you."

"I'd knock her out right now" comes back Steve.

I like HBO's team the best, but I really like Setanta's team even though I haven't heard much of them. Watching Pascal Froch, I didn't really care for ITV that much.

Also is Holdsworth the guy who said "TYPICAL ITALIAN REF. WHAT A LOAD" something like that. If so, then he is by far the funniest.

Setanta regularly have a broadcast that includes Fat Yank commentators these days, though not the main HBO boys.

And yes, that's Steve.

Haha i missed that one! lol Can imagine him saying it right now tho! lol Peach!

[Chunk..]

Richie Woodhall is the best boxing commentator.

''Right down the pipe!''

I enjoy Steve Holdsworth, he's the funniest of them all, and he knows his stuff too.
