    How about a bit of public-expert debate using that thing called a phone or some e-mails. I'm tired of the same bull****. SKY are a joke.

    Mayweather ball licking fest, Jim Watt intent on declaring Mayweather's brilliance every 2 fricking seconds!

    Nelson and Mcrory are becoming 'too long in the tooth' and boring, its about time they let other fighters step into the studio.

    We've all said this so many times now that the reaction to this thread is no suprise at all. I'd just like to know why Sky still persist with the same commentary team and panel even though they are universally loathed. It's odd as hell.

    I've been looking for a torrent all morning to get my ratio up and only Sky ones are around! Won't be downloading them:bart. It was pathetic.

    Anyone see Watt's scorecards for the Katsidis-Escobedo and John-Juarez fights?:rofl Showed up by the HBO team and the real scorecards! Priceless:rofl. God knows which fights he was watching:lol:.

    Yeah - they could have studio guests that are relevant to the fight that is taking place.

    I'm not saying generate bullshitfests and have calling out going on constantly, but use Setanta's and ITV's examples..... Thaxton at ringside for Murray's fights, Maccarinelli in the studio for Haye vs Mormeck etc etc.

    Anything is better than the set of Churchill nodding dogs we have now.

    The whole team needs changing. I'd have woodhall in insread of watt. Bunce as host, and scrap the 3 wise monkeys and get some people that the public will actually know. Eubank would be good, i think David haye would be an exellent puntit. Then maybe an american for something different. Anything would be better than the current lot though.

    bring bak ian darke, smith knows **** all and just jumps on anything watt says, watt only knows how to criticise fighters and cannot commentate, he is looking worse for wear lately so i reckon he is gone in a few years, he is such a ***** he ruins fights for the viewer

    lol at the hate

    why do you guys hate them so much? i hardly noticed them last night, was too caught up in willing Marquez to last the distance

    would love to see Paul Dempsey, Bunce and McGuigan back
