    Although I really can't stand Mark Burdis as a ring announcer, it is pretty funny just how bad he is. The number of weights, records, scorecards and boxer's names he gets wrong is incredible and that's normally just on one night!

    "Ladies and *checks cue card* Gentlemen.. ARE.. YOU.. READY!?" "In the *checks card* red corner.. fighting at light middleweight.. AMIR! KHAN!"

    Some of our MCs are pretty bad but I think Gary Logan and John McDonald are probably the best.

    What do you expect from someone who dumped the gorgeous Claire for Annette Firman?
