any of you guys actually watch the fight live on mute?

8-4 Algerie. easy fight to score.

[MPX309]

No, I just don't pay attention to commentary. (If it's not how I see the fight)

[#CaneloKhan]

yeah we always watch live fights on mute and in slow-motion.

[tocayito1]

lmaooo 8-4 algieri haahaha. the butthurt is strong with you

[Hype job]

8-4 Algieri I 100% agree.

They need to give viewers the option of watching without the commentary and only crowd noise.

It's disgraceful how commentators fool people's perceptions of what is happening.

[Blueduck]

Never wasted my time doing that, whatever you gain by ignoring announcers and crowd, you lose from hearing the impact of the blows.

If a fights anywhere near reasonably close I don't sweat it much. If you had 36 minutes in a ring with a guy and could not finish it, you really could not be all that much better than him anyway

You can not apply that on every 12 round fight. Calzaghe-Lacy went the distance but Calzaghe showed he was multiple levels above him. Hopkins-Pavlik/Trinidad/Tarver are other 12 round examples of how the winner was much better than their opponent. Rigo-Donaire, many many 12 round fights in history where the winner showed he was much better.
