Which brit commentator is the bigger insult to boxing?

We all know they suck at what they do the most,but which ones tops it?

Steve Bunce:''Those american HWs are nothing heartless bufoons.They're ga'bage!Pure ga'bage!And that Doug Fisher boy or whatever?What kinda interview is that?Abomination!'ey Andy boy,how's my shirt?''


Ian Darke:''HE ****IN TOOK IT,JIM!AMIR KHAN TOOK A HOOK FLUSH!FROM BARRERA!HE DAMN NEAR TOOK IT,JIM!''

Duke McKenzie:''His legs have gone.I'm telling ya Jim,his legs are gone.He is out of it!''

Lennox Lewis:''Definetely''

Barry McGuigan:This is....I'd say this is....I mean I'd say this is biggest fight since Eubank with....em.... Benn.''

Richie Woodhall:''I pick Joe,easy.Why?He beat me,that's why.''

Jim Watt:''His punch resistance is gone!His punch resistance is gone but he takes a good shot''


Where are the days of good commentators(not british offcourse)?Lampley and the others aren't great either but they sure are better tha nthese jokers.
Anyome remember Howard Cosell on Lyle vs Foreman:''Lyle is in trouble,Lyle is in trouble.....DOWN GOES FOREMAN!''
Foreman is in trouble,Foreman is in trouble.....DOWN GOES LYLE!''


Feel free to continue the list,I must have forgot some cuz they all are ''ga'bage''!

 

Some of them are awful, right enough. I always liked Ian Darke though, if only for his ability to make a meal out of everything. It gets repetitive, but I have a soft spot for him.

They are all pretty awful so it is difficult to choose.

Jim Watt gets my vote for being the most irritating.

 

Send Buncey a PM if it means that much to you.

 

I like McGuigan.

Darke makes me laugh with his dramatic delivery.

HE TOOK IT

 

i havent seen manny fights whit those comentators but from those ive seen i would pick Watt mostly cause hes a huge Morales nutthugger,in the Morales-Pacquiao I and Morales-Barrera III the only thing he talked about was "the quality of Morales punches" and ignoring any punch the other guys landed.

 

****** is definetely one of the worsei in the bunch,his hard knocks commentating along with that drunk Liverpool supporter face makes him hard to take serious.

 

He took it Jim! He took a clean shot! :rofl

 

Yes,I remeber that,obviously he picked Morales to win all three fights.
''This round goes to Pacquiao on the fond of that late rally but in the end I think the quality of Morales' punches will take it's toll''.

 

That's your choice?

 

I think Ian Darke is an excellent commentator - though he can get a little over-excited.

That is how Sky want the commentators to be - notice how they are always nuthugging someone.

By far the worst is Adam Smith.... he does Friday Fight Night usually for the smaller fights (Darke does the major ones) - annoying voice, knows nothing.

He describes a closeish fight as a one-sided Floyd vs Chico style beating if the house fighter is on top...... if the house fighter is receiving a beating you would think you were watching Hagler vs Leonard!

 

Who were the commentators during John Duddy's European fights and Irish Ropes days? Those guys annoyed me to no end (and still do, since those fights are on tv constantly here).

"He's down! Duddy has his man dow... oh, it was a slip. A slip, only, but, nevertheless, it served its purpose!" That and them always calling him a "Derriere."

Oh, and my favorite Lennox comment is definitely "Hellooooooo!"

 

the guy just couldnt stop talking about the quality of Morales punches.

 

Lay of Duke McKensie man he brings real insight and intelligence to boxing commentary. He knows his stuff he was a 3 weight world champ.

 

I just hate it and start to bite my nails the moment they introduce Smith.

''more on that....with Adam Smith''

 

Good one:good
