Did anyone hear the Bob Sheridan commentating?

  1. Absolute phaggot of a commentator. he didn't accurately describe the fight at hand, what a joke. Would have preferred the regular guys any day

    Was the most biased commentary I've ever heard, not only that he never shut the **** up for one second.

    He scored it 117-111/112

    That's generous to Cotto.

    So I don't see where you're coming from.

    What Floyd does in the ring is great to watch, so no problem with giving him praise.

    What rounds did Cotto win definitively? To me, none. But you would probably give him a round or 2 based on Mayweather's inactivity (taking a round off) and Cotto pressing the action.

    Not a difficult fight by any means. Easy work, imo.

    Yeah listen to Peter-Mccline. Mccline won the vast majority of the rounds (around 9) and scored 3 knockdowns but it was a Peter shutout according to Bob and the scorecards. If you pay Bob he'll give you the most bias commentary for your fighter possible. He's shameless.

    I know, Floyds the best ever boxer he says, what about, Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, Duran etc etc

    Commentators should be impartial IMO Cotto did excellent against ONE of the greats.

    Just emailed boxnation, got them to tell Bunce to stop hogging all the chat too. I said it in nice word, mind.

    Really? Because that explain a lot, the Ali-Foreman commentary was absolutely horrific too. Everytime Ali took a big right hand he was "that punch did no damage", then Ali lands a light jab and he goes "GREAT SHOT by Ali, almost staggered Foreman".

    **** him, he's one of the worst.

    In the email I just sent I mentioned how I'll just get told Sheridan has covered some high profile fights, I also mentioned how that doesn't mean anything at all to me.

    The guy's probably a nice guy, good commentator he isn't.

    IB suggested someone do that in his RBR, I appreciate that option, but don't you just need the atmosphere (crowd screaming?). There should be a 'lose the commentator' option like Sky used to have on their football commentary.
