UK fans, agree that Sky's coverage sucks?

[20LH20]

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of Sky's coverage.

Darke and Watt on commentary are fine by me. I ave no problems with that, at least when they aren't hanging off of a fighters wang with their bias.

The analysis isn't very good. No real detail and Glen McCrory's eyebrows scare the **** out of me.

The pre-fight run-down and details isn't very thorough and doesn't set the fights up as well as they can be.

The adverts between rounds is annoying. Only really good for a 60 second sprint and piss dash.

And no post-fight coverage is the worst of all the annoyances. Why are they hurrying away so soon? Nobody is awake at 5.30am and who wants to watch 3 continuous hours of adverts for the perfect pushups, or whatever.


Yeah, the coverage definitely has room to improve.

I know we should be grateful that we even got the fight but I am just sick of them not showing post fight interviews. Also talking over the cornermen. HBO and Showtime for all their faults urinate on Sky.

why?

did jim watt say **** **** 30 times in a row?

[Chrismart]

Its good Sky are showing some big fights free of late.

I do prefer the HBO commentary though.

I think we should be grateful that we receive the fight for free in the U.K,

But we don't, we have already paid about £45 for a sky subscription with the Sports package, and if you are going to charge for the privaledge at least have the decency to cover the whole event uninterrupted, and perhaps give the people who want the corner work covered (which is fundementally part of the sport) the benefit of the doubt??

Nah i enjoyed watching the fight on Sky Sports

[S.G.]

It's as if Sky purposely assembled the biggest bunch of cunts available purposely.

Seriously, Sky's coverage last night made me wish that was me in there getting battered by Pacquiao. It can't have been more painful than listening to Jim Watt's commentary.
