    I used to really like Watt but his scoring has become progressively worse over the years. Now we're at the point where I'm surprised if he scores for the right guy.

    There's too many ball lickers on SKY as it is with Bellew, Paul Smith and Jamie Moore.

    No wonder Glenn McCrory got the bump with people like this!

    If Jim went it would be a sad day :-(

    Saying he's "shot" may not be too far from the truth, I havn't even watched tonights Sky card but Jim Watt is uncomfortable to listen to these days, when Redge Gutteridge was the leading man back in the day reeling Jim in and guiding him a little he wasn't too bad. Now he's old and Redge is long gone

    He calls a fight as he see it, unfortunately he sees it through the eyes of a senile old man

    I still love a game of Jim Watt Bingo (BANG ON THE CHEN! edition).

    exactly, and he's certainly not going to start using boxing buzz terms like "catch and shoot" now when he never did it before, to fighters like Watt, they were just "moves"

    :yep He needs to keep quiet and not score a fight- get an unofficial scorer in like HBO and Showtime do.

    Watt isn't a dumb guy, he's obviously encouraged to be biased in favor the British fighter.

    Thing is, he's not. He seems to hate them. He had Porter handily beating Brook for f-sake. :-(
