Jim Watt is a great commentater, brings that fighters dimension to the fight brillaintly i thought he was good last nigh it was a tough fight to score and he was in the right now leave Jim Watt alone HE'S A HUMAN BEING
got disagree,any fighter with a brain vcould bring a fighters dimention to the fight.He is a commenter who has limited grasp of words ,and he repeats the same stuff more than any other co commenters i have ever heard across all sports .
Pater, no offence, but you always seem to go against the grain just to make a point. Myself and Beeston have been saying it for months and it finally seems like people are waking up to Watt's terrible commentary. He's hugely negative and also inconsistent; I remember in the Katsidis-Escobedo fight he gave Escobedo a shitload of points for boxing, and his scorecard for that fight was shocking, but last night he felt the need to give Valuev rounds for doing **** allcompared to Haye. Should you get points for landing nothing significant whilst the other guy connects with what he throws? Haye's tactics were spot on. I got the impression that Darke was fed up with Watt in the end as well. Johnny Nelson has proven yet again that he's a brilliant commentator during this week's FFN and should be given the nod full time as well, IMO. Also nice to see Darke back again!:happy
Loser i dont go aginst the grain on purpose i actually like Jim Watt. Hes a scottish legend and hes one of teh commentaters ive grown up to. also i like things staying the same.
a lot of the scottish boxers ive spoken to ,dont really think that much of him .and a lot of fellow scottish boxing fans think the same .i met him once and he was just rude and tried to blank me ...and his commentry isint anything special for the reasons mentioned before.
'Loser'. Whether intentional or not, that was funny. Anywho, in the ring Watt is undoubtedly a legend. That said, it doesn't make him a good commentator, does it? Lewis is a shocking commentator and he is also a British legend. Purely as a commentator, I think the guy is shocking:good.
didnt mean that sorry i think hes an alright commentater, along teh lines fo Howard Cossel hes an alright commentaer but he seems a good guy that you would like to wthc a fight with
I've meet Watt twice and he was freindly and a top bloke both times. I know that does't make him a good commentator but there we go....;O)
johnny nelson done well ,he seems a bit more informed thant jim what?.I would also like to see woodhall do it again like he was on Setanta .he def is miles better than jim what?
no he does not, he consistently ruins the viewing of fights just to serve his own ego and his voice is ridiculous also, the other commentator was much better
Woodhall was good but his knowledge of boxing wasnt the best which can ruin it abit yeh i thought Nelson was alright tried to get his opinion across
It's tough isn't it. I've seen Woodhall score some fights TERRIBLY and he always calls out like we're on the verge of a KO when we're not. Not a big fan in the commentary seat. Darke-McCrory always worked for me.
