    Halling should have got the gig for that godawful Prizefighter abomination and Darke should have been in AC

    Yeah, Halling is crap. But I'm guessing Darke has a Premier League game to commentate on today so couldn't be in the US.

    WOW! Nt even showtime? Showtime is a good setup. Sky is terrible so of course that should be muted, who wants to listen to Amir Khan's wedding arrangments and Nicky Pipers thougths on anything? Nobody.

    I don't know about biased, but they are completely ****. Valuev barely lands a punch on Haye and Watt reckoned Valuev had won:nut. Chilemba landed many right hands on Bellew that were not even acknowledged by those ****tards. You'd be better off putting it on mute and letting one of your mates do the commentary. Sky are a bunch of Clowns.

    Very much so! It's cringe worthy.

    How could you give him any rounds? He covered up for 7 rounds. And Sky saying he showed heart and bravery? How? By covering up and been taken apart for 7 rounds. Purdy had no right being in that ring.

    All they have to do now is hire Benny (The ****ing hair) Ricardo and the set up will define the word shitness.

    Sky are biased across the board- today for example Jamie Redknapp has asked "Who wants to play in the Europa League?" three times today.

    If Sky don't hold the rights to a competition then they usually either ignore it or try to devalue it. It's sometimes cringeworthy but understandable given their revenue model.
