    Him and Ian Darke will be the commentators in Vegas.

    I like Darke, no matter what people think. And I prefer him with McCrory, despite my opinion that he is not a good commentator.

    But Darke and Watt will do, I suppose.

    I just get sick of Watt's relentless repetition.

    Watts bitter situation, though i admit, in months gone by, maybe more recently he has eased up.

    Sure he is critical ..............ok lets leave it there

    It's been a while since i've heard two commentators i really like (tho the Radio 5 Live commentator for the Froch fight was incredible)

    When i used to like the football i would always mute the TV and put on the radio commentary (unless the delay was too much)

    It's become fashionable to rip Darke "he took it Jim, he took it!"

    But i've always loved these guys. It stemmed from the Coralles Castillo first fight. I was screaming my ass off and they were both right up with me. My fave commentary team by miles :deal

    I like Watt, he says it how it is .. Most other British commentators are so biased towards our guy that it gets embarrassing .. I want a commentator to say it how it is regardless of nationality, thats were Gutteridge was brilliant and Watt has learnt from him.
    The blatant sucking up from guys like Woodhall, Rawlings and especially Mckenzie is totally unprofessional

    Just seen him sitting at ringside.

    He's picked Pacman ain't he. He should be

    a) strung up - he's there to back 'our' Ricky
    b) commended for expressing an honest opinion
