Echo, this. Watt is a legend. People need to shut up and enjoy Watt whilst he is here. I hope he does another decade with Sky.
i like watt personally but he does talk a LOT of shite. weve all probably got mates like that he is a very modest man and does speak his mind. i like him more when hes in the studio than when he's commentating. Him and Reg were a great team. the spark doesnt seem to be there with the others
Jim Watt gives an honest, no bull**** opinion (that turns out to be right) and that means he should be sacked? Hopefully they'll replace him with someone who hedges their bets and toes the Sky party line....;O)
I think these cocks have been moaning about him for ages. They're the same people who then say they want Richie Woodhall commentating atsch. They don't know they're born.
I have respect for Jim Watt. Jim Watt said that he had Valouev winning in the fight against Haye. Jim Watt said that Haye could not win without throwing punches, just running around the ring. Watt wanted Haye to win the fight, but he told it like it really was. The fight was political, Chagaev was the WBA champion, won it in the ring, Valouev lost to Chagaev, yet the WBA took it from Chagaev and gave it back! Vlad stopped Chagaev, the "real" WBA" champion! Haye is a paper champion and will soon get knocked out by Vlad, if he shows up this time. Vlad Vs. Haye is a total mismatch. Vlad by very vicious knockout!!!!!!!
His opinion was shared by about 95% of people on this very forum. That man did NOT "nearly knock out the best/2nd best P4P fighter in the world last year". :rofl Are you kidding? Shane buzzed Floyd a little. He never came remotely close to knocking him out. That comes from someone who was rooting like crazy for Shane to knock Floyd out, too. This is a man who's 39. Who hasn't looked really good against someone not named Antonio Margarito since he was in his early 30's. Who failed to land cleanly so much as once on Sergio Mora. Watt was bang on in his prediction, and history has vindicated it.
