    She got a bit of stick about how clueless she was from the viewers and decided to can it. She’s mugged them right off to be fair to her because instead of just out n out leaving she’s sort of saying ‘ill do the next show!’ Then just continuously letting them down. God that Dazn broadcasting lineup was a disaster, Hearn had people thinking it would be Paulie etc and full of real characters and it turned out to be a couple of tarts and a few of his mates. Not to mention Costello who Eddie tried to convince everyone was the best commentator of all time, anybody beats Adam Smith but Jesus he’s boring, not kidding anyone with that

    Tbf I do like Costello on radio commentary but no I agree he's not as good on TV.

    Talks too much on TV, as he forgets we can see the fight.

    Wonder if it ever crossed Eddie mind that he won't see his own shows live on TV and never really appreciates how they come across? Watching replays won't be the same...

    The "social media fanboy" view of his shows is probably his market research and no doubt sticking a bit of mainstream eye candy in there probably went down well with that lot.

    Thought it was comical to see cocaine Barker and the other geezer analysing the fight in the ring with boxing gloves on.

    Next you’ll have Souness, Neville and Carragher pre-match on the pitch in studs and shinpads.

    Cringeworthy production.

    Costello might be boring but he is also a massive irritant. Malignaggi is an enormous irritant, just in another way. Horrible to listen to and talks shite.

    Radio migrants to TV never work out. Look at that wally Sam Matterface. He's an absolute wally and he managed to lose Natalie Sawyer. So thats makes him an idiot and an absolute wally.
