    Woodhall has to be the best analyst on TV these days. Never gets carried away, makes sound arguments and gets his point across in a clear succinct manner. On the other hand I hope David Haye doesn't end up working on more shows, he's awful, he kept getting the names mixed up and at one strange point he actually forgot Groves name! highly strange.

    Agreed.

    Knows his stuff and tells it how it is.

    I thought Professor X was quite good on Saturday- Woodhall is decent but he's seemingly on every channel every weekend. Spreads himself too thinly.

    I like Al Bernstein in any capacity- how on earth Channel 5 lure him over is beyond me.

    Really like Woodhall myself. Very measured in his views and never biased. I also very rarely find myself disagreeing with Barry Jones.

    Woodhall Barry Jones and Tony Bellew all do a good job as talking heads

    Like many, he underestimated Groves. Saying he didn't have the power to hurt Froch but yeah he's quite calm and impartial. Pretty good overall. Didn't have a problem with Haye.

    Him, Bellew, Barry Jones and Jamie Moore are the best pundits for me. He speaks he most knowledge and the only time I've really disagreed with him is last ringside. Thought he was favoring Froch too much. I guess it's because of his connections with Rob Mckracken.

    I like his analysis but he is one dull person. Does he ever smile?

    I'd like to see Alex Arthur get more gigs as a pundit.

    Top analysis from Woodhall. I found Khan even worse than Haye on the weekend. He really doesn't have anything insightful to say. Top boxer but definitely not a commentator.

    Ritchie woodhall is good, never gets carried away and always delivers in a calm impartial manner. Though a bit boring.

    Personally thought David Haye did well.

    he's an analyst, and a good 1, not a comedian. sure you ain't just stereotyping his accent?

    I normally like Richie, but in the ring on Saturday, didn't he say that Groves couldn't hurt Froch with his right hand?
