    Just watched it on youtube thanks to Griff, great stuff.

    McGuigan, Watt, Hatton and Nelson were all brilliant and Smith let them do their talking.

    whos tactics where best
    Hatton block punches and get inside and hit
    Mcguigan Punch at the same time
    Watt back off then fight in bursts

    jim Watt IMO

    Haye dosent block as much, mostly head movement and using quick feet to get out of range

    Yep, Watt's tactics suit Haye best.

    He obviously knows a lot about boxing so i respect his opinion big time but he can be a bit overbearing when he's on TV and i sometimes think shut up and let someone else speak.I think Watt had the best tactics

    Jim Watt for the all the hate he gets was bang on the money regarding the tactics, I fully expect a similar Valuev type performance and when he commits he must do so 100%.

    Another thing that Watt said that none of the rest did was mention Haye's chin whilst the rest were too happy to mentions Klitschko's

    I think Watt would be a better pundit than commentator, he has good insight.

    Watt is class, he will be missed when he retires.
