    Anyone else starting to enjoy his commentary. Thought he was very good, had some good lines and banter all through the night made me chuckle.

    All though the scoring of the Chisora fight i will never quite understand, if i didn't know he was black, i would think it was Nick Griffin scoring that fight the way he had.

    It was 10th or 11th round i think in which he was only person in world who gave Helenius the round, even his co commentator was lost for words.

    But Duke comedy value is going through the roof so im liking him atm.

    On another sidenote, i pointed out this last night in my chat. but what was up with Enzo i did think he looked like Stephen Hawkins sitting in that chair, his legs look bent and he was slanting to the left side in the chair. Was very bizarre.

    Dreadful Duke and Appalling Rawling. The worst commentary duo world sport has ever seen.

    I kept laughing at John Rawling when he asked Duke about his scoring.

    Think it started when Duke said he had Chisora 2-1 up after 4 completed rounds, after that whenever Duke gave his score Rawling would make him repeat his score, than ask him another 2-3 times if he was sure that was the score he had.

    "I've got it even John"

    "So you have it even Duke?"

    "Yeah John, I have it dead level"

    "So you have it 4 rounds a piece with 1 even round"

    "Thats right John"

    "You sure Duke?"

    My favourite was...

    "I don't think Chisora won that one, John"

    "So who do you think won it?"

    He lost count of his card after 4 rounds and Rawling was doubling checking him every round like a school teacher.

    "So, 5th round starting now. Youve got Chisora 3-1 up haven't you Duke?"

    "No, 2-1"
    .
    .
    .
    .
    .
    "Yes, 3-1 Chisora"





    "Great round for Chisora, don't you think Duke?"

    "I scored that round for Helenius"

    "Really?"

    "Yes John"

    "You didn't give it even?"

    I watched the fight last night, & had the big finn winning 115-114, but 2 of my rounds were tighter than a ducks arse.

    What made me laugh is that if Chisora stuck a tongue out or did some sort of poor showmanship, then according to Duke, that was it round lost. This happened twice and to me, apart from the unsportsmanship incident which lasted 10 seconds, Chisora would win the rest of the round.

    Inexplicable.
