      He does? I don't like Jim Watt commentaries, try and shut my ears. It goes like this:

      (For the US crew, Jim Watt is a former Scottish boxer, ('68-'81, most famous bout with Ken Buchanan) who commentates on the UK broadcasts for SKY).


      "Good point, Jim, you know your stuff."

      "Yeah, good point, Jim, deserved to be made again."

      "Yeah, you've said that three times now, Jim."

      "Jim, you've made that same point four times now."

      "Jim, we get it."

      "Yeah, Jim, you've SAID."

      "For ****'S SAKE!"

          Skipper Kelp gets the shaft whenever he is on tv!

          Scotty Olson is everyone darling and can do no wrong when he is in the ring!

            I'm used to getting the US versions of fights and hearing any UK contingent getting slagged, but I was amazed at the (largely unfair) panning Glen Johnson got last time out. Even when he looked to be about to KO Tarver in the 11th(?) they were still on his back.

            So which fighters do you think have the most bias against them? While we're on the subject, which boxers have the most bias for them?
            prince naseem hamed had the most bias against him.
            and now floyed mayweather is beggining to get it too.

              Yeah, Morales hasn't changed, he still does it the hard way whereas Barrera has had to alter his style etc. etc. He does tend to make a good point & if Darke agrees he'll beat u to death with it, maybe it's just cos he's Scottish but his voice does my head in I would say get McCrory back but he's the same when it comes to Barrera.

                Too Much Criticism:
                Zab Judah gets a lot of hate...
                Mayorga like the earlier post mentioned...
                Hopkins was lambasted during the Taylor fight and throughout the entire Hakkar fight...

                Too Much Bias:
                DLH wrote the book...
                V.Klitschko ever since Lewis
                Trinidad
                Mosley
