Most irritating boxing pundits & commentators...

    For my money, the bloke I'd most like to fill in is the cantankerous, self opinionated jerk that is Steve Bunce.
    This bloke is so up himself, and has the temerity to talk down to seasoned pro's, it's amazing no one has knocked him spark out yet.
    The sooner he's kicked off Setanta and BBC's 5Live radio shows, the better.
    What a dickhead.

    ..........mind you, ITV's Adam Smith, who clearly has zero boxing knowledge, but talks like he's a world authority on the sport, runs old Buncey a close second......

    Sorry, I'm on a roll now!
    Isn't Larry Merchant the dullest, most embarrassing post fight interviewer you've ever seen?!
    I cringe with embarrassment every time he clambers through the ropes to thrust that microphone under the nose of the unlucky winner(!) who clearly wants to get away and celebrate with his pals, and not listen to this daft old codger droning on endlessly about nothing........!

    ...........and finally, there's Mr Charisma by-pass himself, Steve Holdsworth, who could make Hagler v Hearns sound like a boring fight!
    Dear old Jim Rosenthal's job's safe all the time this is the calibre of commentator he has to compete with!
    Oh, how I mourn the passing of Reggie.......
    Sorry. I'll go to bed now.

    It'sonly healthy that you talk to someone other than yourself, i'm here to help!!



    I can see why Buncey could annoy ardent fans of fighters but doesn't the sport need people to question and counter their comments? I am happy to say i think Buncey does a good job. I think he is fairly unbiaed other than his own opinion holding sway and he always concedes it's about opinions. I don't always agree with him but then he isn't my *****, yet.

    :lol::rofl

    I hear you on Merchant's interviews, but personally I find him vastly more acceptable in this scenario than Max KELLERMAN. His ignorance, downright rudeness and annoying voice annoy the living **** out of me.

    Your opinion of Buncey will go down like a lead balloon on here. People are crawling out of his fat ass these days.

    Getting wood on a boxing forum just don't seem right, somehow!

    Bob Sheridan is also a PITA. Never shuts up, even when he's got nothing to say.

    Why does Larry Merchant sound so considered and thoughtful when asking the questions..yet when you actually repeat what he just said in your head its really boring. Does anybody else just completely lose what Larry just said...?
