Rick Powell must go

True he really is a good analysist, frustrating though he has a boxing brain but he doesn't use it when he was in the hunt with Adamek, it was like ffs practise what you preach.

 

Hussy Hussein is another good commentator, I like hearing him but he tends to be a little quiet.

 

They just need someone with some character that can stand up there with confidence. I.E. A professional. Not a spruiker from a Pitt St Mall $2 bin shop...

 

Totally agree.:good
Really enjoy Hussy & Briggs when they commontate as the expert analysis type.
I reckon Jeff Fenech could play the 3rd commontator role like Larry Merchant.
He says some funny punch drunk random things at times which i like.:yep
His comments about Nader Hamdan a couple months back had me laughing.:rofl

 

Sat near rick in the corner one night ( wyong leagues to be exact) and the peroxided one dropped a putrid fart that almost killed us. We blamed him but he remained calm and professional throughout the ordeal.

True story.

 

Listen lads if you give yours truly $100,000 i will get over there to do the announcing ,ask Choc TWO questions and beat the bollocks out of that Ty ****er . Deal ?

 

Some of you seem to think ring announcer means commentator?

 

Must have been a ripper to revive this thread 4 years later :rofl

 

He certainly farks-up when faced with split & majority decision announcements
e.g. Judge X scored the bout 57/54 for blue corner. Judge X scored the bout 55/57 for red corner......

 

doesnt the ring announcer just introduece the fighters, their weights, and a quick couple of words at the end, etc?? i didnt think they commentated
