    The guy who commentates British amateur boxing is annoying. He commentated on Callum smiths last fight. The way he talks is like he trying to recite Shakespeare.
    He just weird

    Jim Watt, his voice grates on me and he's so biased all the time.

    Roy Jones sucks so bad at commentary. He never actually contributes to the commentary he just.... says things

    Jim Watt sounds a bit too much like Groundskeeper Willie.

    Totally agree, especially about 2 and 3. Interviews a guy who doesn't speak a word of english, and will ask the most ridiculous questions that even an english scholar might have problems with. Lampley too. I think him and Max spend the entire show trying to come up with some kind of iconic catchphrase for every fight. Also have lost respect for Paulie M after as a member of the press he interjected himself into the middle of the story in the money grab farce. Bring back Cosell!!!:lupie:

    Lampley and Kellerman.. Both. They both try to make fights greater as they are happening instead of just commentating. You cannot make a great fight with the commentary.

    Not commentators but Steve Farhood and Harold Ledderman annoy me.

    From a UK perspective, Darren Barker and Carl Froch are awful.

    I suppose he's probably retired now but when I watch old fights on YouTube I find Ferdie Pacheco especially grating.

    Ronald macintosh is absolutely shocking, teddy atlas talks complete rubbish and Larry merchant should be in a home.
