    Jim Watt is terrible, how many times Iv watched a fight and he's claimed the man winning it is losing. He talks utter bollox.

    Ian Darke is pretty much the British Jim Lampley. Overly excited (perhaps to the point of hilarity) but overall not that bad.

    Lennox Lewis is unintentionally hilarious and a welcome addition to any boxing card.

    Bump.

    With the end of Setanta I guess we won't be getting the blunders that much.

    That must be recent then!! Go watch the Chavez/Taylor 1 fight & all he sez is "Thats nuther round 4 taylor nuther round 4 taylor" & i think he said Chavez needs KO after 6 too win, but he's better than the **** suckers we have 2 put up with.

    Gary Newbon is def the worst ever, so rude, all he ever said about any guy that lost even by KO was " HE SWALLOWED IT HE SWALLOWED IT did'nt he frank or He's a shot fighter he's shot.

    Jim Watt was OK at first & back in the 90's but now he's getting 2 pissed on Hatton sperm.

    That little turd is called Andy "smug little kunt" Kerr, an absolute useless little runt but i suppose yer need a ***** like Kerr 2 make buncy shine & 2 direct the camera away from Buncy as he checks an old 80's Ring/KO mag 4 a quote that he can filtch & off course claim as his own, watch hs eyes scan down 2 his left & thats the sig for gobbler Kerr 2 get the camera off buncy.

    Jim Watt's commentary during the Hatton-Pacquiao fight was hilarious, I thought he was going to have a heart attack. :lol::lol:
