This content is protected Ronald mcintosh and Ritchie woodhall. Are they the best itv can get? Who should they get in future?
Woodhall is the best UK boxing pundit around. May not sensationalise like some of the donkeys on sky but he knows what he's talking about. He's a genuine boxing man who knows the sport at all levels.
I loved their sketch. British humor is so sophisticated, I think they make a great comedy team. Oh... commentary, not comedy...
Farrar and Bernstein is the best commentary team since Ian Darke left Sky and McCory decided to do Shakespeare. Andy Clarke would be decent and so would Bernard Dunne. Depends how much ITV are willing to chase and/or pay.
R Mac has to go, his voice is amateur. Doesn't suit PPV. Compare it to Stone Cold Adam Smith's raspy, grand vocals and it's no contest. Woodhall's scorecard in Etches-Ryder was diabolical. I was disappointed they didn't use Ward for commentary because he is very articulate.
I honestly thought that Woodhall would remain impartial and call fights as he seen them, but he was clearly reading the script like the rest of the sheep on Saturday night.
