    Comments Thread For: Determined Brian Custer Is Years From His Last Stand

    When Brian Custer landed what, for most, would be a career-defining gig with ESPN in 2021, it was a major milestone in his broadcasting career, but he did have one point regarding life outside of the worldwide leader that was non-negotiable.

    The crew sounds good to me. Al Bernstein and Steve Farhood would be nice additions too but I can work with this. Is there going to be a Spanish announce team too ? Sometimes I feel like watching in Spanish.

      Glad Bernstein is not involved always found him to be wishy washy and always rolled over when someone challenged his take.

        What I like about Custer is he’s both knowledgeable AND likable, and those are the tyoe of announcers you need if you’re a broadcaster asking people to pay to watch your fights. That’s what DAZN still hasn’t figured out: (at least on the US side). Mannix, Mora and Grantham aren’t particularly likable or relatable, and Mannix in particular, doesn’t seem to realize how his snarkiness has a nasty edge to it. Why do executives and boxers come and go at DAZN but these three clowns are still doing the fights years later?

          Al is going to be working for DAZN. His first announcing gig there will be March 30th on the Pulev card. I don't know what Farhood is going to be doing or what the Spanish broadcast team will look like. El Diamante is awesome, so hopefully he gets a high profile gig somewhere soon. I know he was doing some stuff for Overtime Boxing recently.
