    On Cunningham Hernandez. Bloody good work, he is better than Nick Halling.

    He did well given he was on his own which cannot have been easy. Much prefer him as the studio pundit where is excellent imo.

    I enjoyed his commentary all night TBH, i think he is suited for doing a single commentary, ive had to deal with Premiersports commentary and that guy was one miserable boring *******.

    Hope Bunce does more foreign fight commentaries by himself.

    Also he clearly was not at the fight, he was watching it on tv. Box Nation provinga nice earner for Bunce, no wonder he is in favour.

    Why do you say he was not there? He was making non-stop references to the heat and the atmosphere in the arena.

    He was also speaking to the German's sitting next to him.


    For a one man commentary Bunce is much better than Rawling / Halling because he can just talk all night about anything.

    I enjoyed the Abba reference after one of the knockouts.

    It sounds like he is a box in London, listen to his commentary he is watching only the monitors.

    Didn't think he was great. For the whole first round he didn't actually call the fight and there was some fairly good exchanges. The Cunningham knock down kinda caught him unawares beacuse he was rambling on about something else other than the fight. Great in studio though.

    I Like his commentary, he brings a leftfield, less formal approach to the job which I like.
