    Who though? How many well known retired British Asian boxers could they get?

    Naz isnt exactly suited to a TV role if we are honest

    Benn did punditry for the BBC during Audley's reign of terror. Needless to say that didn't last long as he criticised Audley for not being busy enough.

    What is Lennox Lewis doing nowadays? They could employ him for the American fights.

    I like Paul Smith as a pundit. Doesn't seem bias even when asked about Quigg and Frampton

    that's **** that sky have binned off Glenn, he was easily one of the best pundits & could have a bit of a joke as well. Alot of the others are all brown-nosers towing the party line. They all to a man picked Froch (the matchroom fighter) to win the re-match when it was a 50/50 fight & that really showed how they were all towing the line. If you want a clearout, get rid of Halling & pension off Watt. The best commentary partnership was Ian Darke & Glenn.

    Glenn made a bit of an arse of himself around the Froch, Groves fight getting involved with Frochs' brother, I'm afraid the writing has been on the wall since then.

    No he didnt make an arse of himself at all, he stood up to the moron who started on him.

    So wind it in Lee

    Correct! And it's started all over again on Saturday with the Bellew-Cleverly fight and all the "brown nosers" picking Bellew to win because he's the "Sky pet". It was good to see Glen McCrory disagreeing with them all again especially Froch as he looked him in the eye and said he's going for Cleverly because he always sticks with the underdog. Priceless.
    Glen's the f*cking man :deal

    incorrect, they picked froch because they knew it wasn't 50/50 and were proven right.

    to be fair to watt though, he does speak his mind about fights (wewhether it's right or wrong).. his been ripping Burns a new one lately, First Froch - Groves was all over Groves work, he was giving loads of credit to Brizuela against Coyle ... Nick Halling for me is much worse, guy does my head in with his cliché bull****... Every Joshua fight makes me wanna vomit with the amount of smoke he blows up his ass

    Given that Andrew Strauss called another cricketer a c unt during a tv break which happened to get broadcast and nothing happened to him, how can McCrory get sacked for being straight but fair with people?

    Seen a few recent tweets he's put on twitter - shame this.

    McCrory wasn't one of the Sky (and Matchroom..) yes men, at least he spoke his opinion and didn't kiss arse.

    That said, there does need to be more of a shake up at Sky. Paul Smith, I know he's not the most popular on this forum and isn't a fan of this place himself, does talk a lot of sense whilst not being bias - would like to see more of him.
