I see some people twitting that the British commentators were really biased to Porter and Jim Watt was really hating on Brook and it might have swayed some UK fans opinions. Any UK fans here know what the hell Jim Watt was talking about?
What the deal with British commentators?

Well basically Jim Watt needs to be sacked, I don't know a single fan of boxing who listens to anything he has to say. . . If you want to see some biased commentating from him, go watch him commentate on any Ricky Burns fight. Dude is a joke. -
He basically was watching the wrong fight lol. He had Porter winning and even when Porter wasn't landing anything he was scoring points for Porter for his hyperactive aggressiveness, totally ignoring the poise and calmness of Brook or anything that Brook was doing for that matter, basically making it look like Brook was losing when that was not the case.Comment

Well just like Al Bernstein was doing the inverse for the fight, favoring Brook and ignoring Porter.Comment

To be honest I don't think SKYSPORTS should let a Scotsman commentate on an Englishman fight against a foreigner. Whenever Watt commentate on a Scottish fighter he would have them winning even if they appear like they are losing.Comment

Literally nobody in the UK who knows a lick about boxing takes Jim Watt seriously.
The only thing he's good for is this:

Dam, it sucks because i thought Brook really earned this win. I was also a Brook hater that thought he was some eurobum.Comment

Watt is just negative. Sky sports needs a big shake up and bring in some young blood that have passion for the sport.Comment
