HBO/Showtime urinate on Sky Sports.

Over all I don't mind Sky too much. Ian Darke is very knowledgable, a good commentator, Brit bias aside! Adam Smith is far too excitable and he gets on my nerves. Ditto for Watt; Watt's a lunatic, he shouts right into the mic. The best Sky commentary team is Darke/McCrory. HBO's okay, Lampley overdescribes the fights a lot though, I've noticed, sometimes he goes on a 20-30 second monologue where he's basically just describing the action even though we can SEE IT, i.e. 'Good left hook there by Pacquiao, but Cotto comes right back. Cotto moving forward, lands a left jab. Didn't faze Pacquiao, he comes back with two flush shots. Cotto backing away....' etc. etc. ( I made that commentary up, you get my meaning). Lederman, at times, is a total buffoon. His scoring is sometimes awful. But he's pretty funny. 'A fighter can only be saved by the bell in the twelfth and final round...JIM!!!!' I actually quite like Merchant, and I think Steward is a great analyst. Lewis is pretty hit or miss

The bias is irritating sometimes with Sky. I don't mind Darke and Watt commentating at all, but a fresh face to the team would be good.

Bring back Setanta......

Agreed, I remember people on here giving Setanta stick, but at least they got us lots of fights.

I like Showtime more than HBO now....

[TysonFury_ATG]

lol, yeah he was.

I just think overall the sky commentators dont know much compared to the HBO and Showtime. Jim Watt is so annoying, He is like an even worse scottish version of Larry Merchant.

Yeah but at least when Larry Marchant finally gets something out, he usually makes a good point. I'm still yet to find anything Jim Watt says remotely interesting.

i like Ian Darke as the best commentator in boxing
