    An absolute disgrace.

    Tony Bellew should be ashamed of himself for how he acted in the post fight interview.

    Chilemba was hitting him cleanly and taking no punishment himself. Honestly just an unbelievable, how could a judge give Bellew the win as well. crazy!

    A shame to see good cards vomited on in this manner. We need new-age commentary.

    Hope Eddie reads people thoughts tonight on here. Shocking commentary, and terrible behaviour from Bellew a lot of the time.

    I usually don't think they are that bad but tonight was just horrible. The Bellew blinkers were on tonight.

    The crowd were itching to make some noise to support Bellew but you could hear a pin drop for most of the fight......

    Do the Sky Sports team think we're stupid :patsch

    They were expecting Bellew to get a robbery decision and then be like "See just as we expected"

    Halling is ****ing awful. Just a puppet who echoes anything Watt says rather than have an opinion.

    The yanks are always honest. Just like rees suffering so many knockdowns you couldn't remember them all...

    I find some commentators are extremely agitating to listen to when they refuse to acknowledge the work from the away fighter. Chilemba was practically dominating the final rounds yet Bellew was closing the show!

    The result was apparently 'Astonishing'. I find his comments astonishing. It's scandalous.

    I never heard such biased comentators. Even when Bellew was missing badly they said "we need more from that".
    I mean I am german and say this... normally our comentators are biased... But these two....? It was almost disgusting!

    It was bad tonight but for Watt's nadir you need to go and listen to Matthews-Rees again. Watt obviously has a soft spot for Matthews! That commentary literally described something else entirely. Included one of Watt's all time great lines:

    "Even in the parts Matthews is losing he's impressing me"

    F*ckin hell
