Gareth Davies book (at least in part) - 'Call of the Warrior'

Can`t stand the guy would not buy his book if it was 10p

 

No opinion really but I do struggle to trust him as a pundit as he has never done the thing he’s punditing on. Amplified by the poshest of poshest voices. Fair enough writing for papers etc but I think in the thick of the action it should be left to the ex pros.

Whenever I see/hear him now all I can picture is him pretending to kick Froch. You know in his head he thought he looked great but in reality he looked like the slow, cumbersome, stiff arl man he is haha.

 

**** sucker this ****

 

He is the last of the old school journalists still doing it and to be fair he has done well to stay relevant. He has made some shocking comments over the years though.

 

No particular reason he just rubs me up the wrong way. I know its crazy but you take to some people and not others

 

Yes, Smith is a commentator though not a pundit, that’s fine for me just not the expert analysis. As I said I don’t mind him.

Not that posh!? Kinell mate where are you from haha?

 

Like me with Kell Brook. No reason why. I think it was the voice haha.

 

Yes every time he said 'Eh Day Hearn is going to get me a fight with Khan'

 

Same reason football commentators are there for their good voices and eloquence but need a respected ex pro next to them to disect the minor details. Of course it would be better if the commentator has boxed, but it’s not necessary. There are always anomalies such as Enzo Calzaghe but having done things over and over hives you far more credibility. The pundit there for expertise however, should certainly know his way around a professional ring.

 

THE GAD is a breath of fresh air. I would much prefer hearing him talk than FROCK who would lack the self control to not insert his dead attendance joke. The only fighter i can tolerate listening to is Fabio Wardley.
