    I know sky can be biased and other broadcasters, but these guys were on a whole new level. You would have thought both Charlos were the best fighters on the planet from what these guys were saying.

    Should be banned from commentating, that was an absolute embarrassment to the sport last night, it was cringe inducing listening to it. Some of their quotes should be made into memes, they were that bad. The shilling and propagandizing was some of the worst I've ever heard. They were literally pissed at Korobov and Harrison for not standing there and letting the Charlo's KO them, and were stupid enough to actually say something that IDKSAB on live mics.:lol: Utter trash from all of them.

    The house favorites get the praise, I get that, but don't ignore the other fighter in the ring. This is a problem at every network it seems.

    every American sport is terrible about this. when John Madden was alive, he rattled on about the cowboys, even when they weren't playing.

    I think it would be pretty cool to see a video similar to the "A Tale of HBO Nuthuggery" video with Bradley vs Pacquaio done with Harrison vs Charlo.
    Only problem is it would just be the entire fight reuploaded.

    It was ****ing painful. They kept talking about how Jermall was going to figure out Korobov as if it was a given. And they seemed shocked that Korobov was holding his own, but still downplaying his performance. As if it had more to do with Jermall and little to do with Korobov's skill and craft.

    I think it was in the 6th that it was again said that it's basically just a matter of time.... Oh **** off.

    And Harrison was given 0 credit that night.

    On a side note. Larry Hazzard Jr shouldn't do crack before judging a fight.

    I was gonna mention that. “Left hand from Korobov, Jermall will figure that out so it doesn’t count and we won’t score that”, was so biased it was bizarre. I get they work for people and those people want a fighter to win to suit their future plans/agenda but it’s just cringe and a bit boring to be honest...

    The funny thing is it only takes one commentator to go rogue and then the wheels fall off in hilarious fashion. It's why I think Paulie is a good commentator, I've seen him challenging shameless shilling on both UK and US broadcasts.

    Korobov tagged him with the left hand every ****ing round! And they at one point said that Jermall had adjusted to it.
    Adjusted to what? To the pain?

    The whole PBC commentary team is biased and suck at their job. And the fighters themselves are complete divas. FFS, Thurman just said that he doesn't give Crawford any credit at 147...
    None of the WWs want to fight each other. Wilder is living in lala land. Charlos are coked out of their minds. Everyone else is just getting recycled.
    And boy oh boy do they looooove to marinate fights. Jesus A ***k! Did a real great job with Jermell and Hurd.

    I miss Tarver. He was brutal at times, especially when criticizing fighters. Kayode had enough of it and called Tarver out. The 43 year old Tarver obliged and gave the younger Kayode a lesson. :lol:

    “Brilliant block with his face from Charlo, there’s nothing this man can’t do” cringe.
