    Was the American commentary as bad as the British commentary?

    I've seen some posts that suggest some bias from the HBO commentary, but I was watching the Sky coverage of this fight and had to put up with the truly appalling Nick Halling, who seemed more content on concentrating on what Marquez wasn't doing rather than the actual in-ring content.

        I had a Russian stream so for me it didn't matter, easily scored it for Bradley.
        The only thing I noticed is the pro Mexican fans going crazy for every punch miss or not that Marquez threw.

            I found it pretty funny that Richie Woodhall was so adamant that this was such a clear and comfortable victory for Bradley, but then credited Pacquiao as being among one of Bradley's wins.




            For the record, I thought Bradley did win a well earned decision, so this isn't me whining over the verdict. I had Tim by two points and don't see anything wrong with having the fight even a little bit wider, but the commentary was so overly biased in Bradley's favour that you'd think Bradley were dominating almost every round.

                He's a big fan of Bradley for sure.

                    yeah the Sky Sports wasn't the best commentary, although I did agree Bradley won, it wasn't the shut out they were making out, Marquez done alot more than they gave him credit for.
