    Much prefer the BT team to the DAZN team. Actually prefer the Sky team to the DAZN team too. I may be the only one but I like Adam Smith on commentary.

    Lewis amd Bunce arre dreadful for BT.

    DAZN had a very good pundit team, but had to spoil with now getting Froch.

    You are not alone. I also like Adam Smith as a commentator.

    Both BT Sport and Sky Sports boxing teams are miles ahead of DAZN UK.

    Lewis is bland.
    Haye looked like an idiot.
    Bunce is a joke in that role.
    Frampton is very, very good.
    Dempseys best days were in the 90's.

    DAZN is awful with the setup. Just a Matchroom echo chamber, so I can see why you like it.

    Matchroom is just absolutely boring no personality clashes no outspoken opinions absolutely nothing apart from towing the line, the only entertaining one is froch when he gets a gig.. game changed.. more like game ruined. At least BT have some outspoken and animated characters, Eddie just got his pals together and a couple of sorts and thought he’d cracked it, BT all day

    That's DAZN UK / Matchroom's big problem. It's so boring you almost lose interest.

    Adam smith is a little corporate virtue signalling soyboy weasel, his comments about the Manchester bombing shouldn’t be forgotten, that was a ****ing disgrace, imagine your daughter gets killed at a concert and that weasel brings it up before a fight talking about somebody’s tattoo haven’t no connection to it ffs, he’s a disgrace, virtue signalling little nonce

    I still don't get how Bunce is still relevant. He's been awful for years, surely there's better people out there that could do his job?

    BT is much better

    Its more raw ,and I'm not certain that's intended but i like it either way

    DAZN is truly horrid and their American coverage is even worse

    I actually missed Adam Smith as a commentator last night. That had been the icing on the cake.

    Dempsey is class and I like Frampton. Lewis and Haye are sub par though.

    BT's production is what let's it down.

    I'd rather Colin Heart than Bunce.

    Bunce is a charlatan.

    100 per cent right. He's a terrible commentator who shouldn't be anywhere near a microphone. For a sport that once had Harry Carpenter, Reg Gutteridge, Des Lynam ( radio ) and Ian Darke, he is an embarrassment to the sport. Also for the head of boxing to make himself chief commentator is an example of an ego running wild.
