Idiot Jim Watt at it yet again!!

Fury was outdone in nearly every aspect. Fury didn't start working enough until he knew he was about to lose the fight and bit the bullet in rounds 9 and 10.

 

He gave it by 2 rounds, almost EVERYONE had it to McDermott - including Haye, who had it by 4 points to McDermott, yet Watt is the target for abuse?

 

Watt praised almost everything McDermott did and ignored a lot of Fury's good work. It reminded me of the first Williams v McDermott fight where Watt was giving McDermott credit for literally doing nothing.

You can make a case for Fury winning any of rounds 1,2,5,6,9,10.
The other 4 rounds were definitely McDermott's and there's no way you could score them for Fury.

I personally had it a draw, I can definitely see why the majority had it in favour of McDermott but Watt's commentary is what has caused these cries of robbery. If Watt had been as biased in favour of Fury all we'd be hearing here is people saying 'right decision, scorecards were way too wide though.

It was a close fight, could have gone either way and certainly wasn't 98-92 either way.

 

Yeah i had it a draw myself but i wouldnt compain if it was 96-94 to McMuffin

 

So why did 95% of people who were ringside (including Fury's cornermen) have McDermott winning the fight by at least 2 points and they could not be influenced by Watt's commentary?

 

Im puzzled by the abuse of Watt.

I heard him praising Fury numerous times saying he was fighting pretty well.....because McD was such a big underdog he was maybe praising his work more than he should have. Like said in this thread...he had it to McD by 2

There wasnt much good work by Fury.......alot of activity with very little substance

Thats a load of **** BigEars saying Watts commentary is the only reason people are crying robbery.....it was a clear win for McD

 

Watt is always Bias for sky's fighters!

man i remember feeling sick by his nuthugging of naseem hamed agains wayne mccullough (And ive always been a fan of naz but he was terrible that night)

 

I dont deny that.

But people are saying 'Watt was calling it a schooling!'.......'Watt didnt praise one shot from Fury!.........blah blah blah.

He wasnt even that bad last night.

Watt was prasing Fury throughout for the fight he was putting up.....i thought he called it pretty well, much better then other fights he has been calling on in the past

 

Granted it wasnt his worst night but he was still bias towards McMuffin

He did paise some of furys work but i feel he dispensed this praise sparingly

for example in the last round "McDermot using his experiance"

what Jim calls using his experiance i called being in no position to defend himself the rules say defend yourself at all times and turning away twice in the last round doesnt count as defending yourself.

but again thats down Terry O'Connor he should have issued a warning the first time and docked a point the second

but then again he knew his scorecard.....

 

But Terry O'Connor has been knocked out by McDermotts dad in 5 rounds. No grudges there then.

As for Watt not poraising Fury, what coverage were these people watching, he was constantly praising Fury throughout.

 

it's not just watt its those two robots they have in the studio who say a lot of absolute nothing

 

**** jim watt the old **** needs to retire

 

Watt called it OK IMHO.

 

i thought Watt did a good job

exactly as i saw it
