    Yeah, "Where's my ****ing tie, Clarence?" I think it was. Pretty rough decision by Sky to sack him over that, as said he was pretty clued-on for commentary.

    For instance, I vaguely seem to recall he was on the British commentary for Holyfield-Douglas and said extremely early on that Douglas was looking 'shot' and would lose.

    RIP Gary

    I remember watching the commentary and there were 3 commentators and Gary said Holyfield would win within seconds of the fight starting and the other commentators, maybe Colin Hart and Dempsey my memory's ****ed, were having a go at him saying he could no way say that so early in the fight but he stuck to his guns.

    A sad loss.
