    Remember Adam Morallee too. What a lad! Coldwell was nerved by Morallee in the build-up.

    I feel like he has two personas like Bellew. On IFL / Boxing Social interviews you get most people saying how much they like listening to Coldwell, how he's a family man, and talks sense.

    His son is actually class at football, I've seen the videos Coldwell posts on his Instagram and he seems really talented. However, I remember when Dave posted on his Instagram asking for "an experienced u9 goalkeeper". :nusenuse:

    Laura Woods was really good. Nothing against Maya Jama but they need someone with more experience than her involved in the sports field. However, I don't want to just blame her, they could have helped her out by putting someone else alongside Bellew rather than just Jama and Bellew, maybe someone like Froch or Adam Booth.

    Basically we can't have ring card girls so we've got Maya Jama instead

    Maya Jama is just the flavour of the month, eye candy. Nothing else. She obviously knows F all about the sport, its really bad but i guess who cares? Eddie knows she will bring in viewers. As i said she is pleasant on the eye. There aren't many females that look good and know about boxing that are available tbh. The bird on ESPN and the other one on Sky (forget their names), are very good but obviously have jobs.

    Maya Jama belongs nowhere near this broadcasting team. She's more at home on a show like Keith Lemon's Celebrity Juice.

    Kate Abdo and Laura Woods though are proper sports presenters, I'm not sure where Maya Jama came from, think she's most famous for receiving a love length from Stormy and presenting other fluff

    I really find it hard to believe that Jama will bring in viewers. Is there anyone that sad that they wouldn’t pay (let’s say) a fiver a month to watch the shows, but would if they’re presented by a fully clothed woman?

    I genuinely dont think one person will subscribe to DAZN cause Jama is on there. I can only assume that if 1/10 of 1% of her followers are introduced to the fact the fact that DAZN exists her job is done.

    LOL

    No, they're not. It's a shame to see that people's expectations have been *******ised (no idea why this has been censored) this much to think that Abdo and Woods are "proper sports presenters". Fecking hell.

    Would you prefer Clare Balding then?

    Tbf, Balding is actually very good at her job. Not sure the same can be said about the others.

    Why do you think that it has to be a woman who has no clue about the respective sport?

    Claire Balding is brilliant. So is Hazel Murray. Proper female sports presenters.

    I guess you’ve never watched or listened to any of the boxing related stuff she’s done then?
