    He's had his critics, but I've always found Jim Watt to be a MUCH better commentator than John Rawling, who is repetitive, monotone, boring and biased.

    And for me, Jim Watt is better to listen to than Barry Jones.

        Aww, i really loved this man and his commentating. And his accent was the sweetest aspect of his craft to me.
        And you guys speak English and call this Scottish guy's accent a gypsy accent or have no clue about it? How ignorent of you.

          They'll probably get Adam Smith in now as co-commentator. From a business perspective, why use some of the budget to get Paulie in when you have Adam Smith lurking around in the background like a weirdo anyway. Then Johnny Nelson to do the presenting. He's awful but it is what it is.

          Anyway good luck to Jim Watt, Hope he enjoys his years off now. Didnt like his commentary but he has been through some tough times, lost his daughter recently which must have been devastating.

            Fury has never been dropped by a cruiserweight.

                He weighed 205 for the Fury fight so technically he was above the cruiserweight limit, hence not a cruiserweight.

                    Was Joe Frazier a cruiserweight?
