    The worst bit was after each round he was saying something akin to 'they're biased so i give that round to Valuev' and before they announced the result he says 'they won't have it as close as i did, because they are biased'.

    The most biased people scoring the fight worked for Sky.

    It's amazing how much difference it makes to have one sided commentary. I make a conscious decision to be impartial and it seems to work.

    I'll always remember explaining to my friends that are 'part-time' fans that Haye was winning, they wouldn't buy it. Sat them down a couple of days later with the sound off and made them watch it again.

    I'm a 'fulltime' fan, and even impartial I wasn't sure Haye had done enough to win.

    I turned the sound down on Holyfield-Valuev and scored it the same twice. Never again. And that was a better fight than Haye-Valuev.

    I didn't score the Holyfield fight but thought he won. I don't know what commentary was like because I had to watch it in a foreign language.

    Same here, if I'm not wrong I've got another version in a different foreign language with one or two different shots. It really isn't worth me checking the validity of that :lol:

    i like adam smith as a commentator but think his role should be more behind the scenes.

    i watched the valuev vs holyfield fight with german commentary i couldnt understand and scored it to valuev. the us commentary were very biased.

    allmost of neutral ringside journos scored it to valuev to.

    holyfield being robbed in that fight is one of boxings great myths.

    I like to think it should be the opposite. He is anawful commentator and should stay well behind the scenes.
