    I would but I need some bit of atmosphere.

      Sky commentary is why I first got into watching streams of HBO and Showtime.

      It is sickening. Absolute nuthuggery.

      Boxnation isn't much better either.

      The best thing about the US? Boxing commentary.

        Clarke and Macklin were fine during the undercard, if a little low energy. I wish they were the main ones

            Yeah it was trash. 3 rounds in and they made it sound like a mayweather masterclass was in session

              Macklin is their best colour guy but he is definitely dull and a bit repetitive also. It really is a dismal pool.

                  I made this thread 3 rounds in, AJ was throwing punches and Smith was going "and AJ with the right hand!".... It didn't even land! lol

                  Every single time!

                  Froch was saying AJ is totally dominating while Parker was boxing on the back foot well, it was obvious they were looking for AJ to tire and take him deep. AJ certainly was not dominating the fight, he was centre of the ring yes, but was not landing any punches.

                    I had to switch over to a Showtime acestream because the Sky presenters were talking so much crap. The highlight of the Sky feed was Bellew shouting "HE'S ****ING GOOSED IN THAT CORNER LAD" over and over at Price after the 3rd against Pov.

                      I mean, it's not unusual to see a bit of bias from commentary teams, but this was above and beyond. That **** was so bad it made me feel embarrassed on their behalf.
