    He doesn't half chat some ****. He was going on all night about how Kesslers punches were "bouncing off Froch" as if that meant they didn't count. Then he was on about Kessker being disheartened as early as the 7th round even tho his best round was round 11 which he actually scored 4 Froch. My favourite bit tho was in round 12 with 10 seconds to go when he was getting super excited that the "ref was about to stop the fight" when u could clearly see the ref actually going to tell Froch to keep his punches up as he clearly strayed very low with 2 left hooks but didn't bother breaking it up cos he knew there was hardly any time left. They need get new commentators. By the way I had it 115-113 Froch.
     
  2. He was fine

    People knock him all the time
    When he said they were bouncing off him all he meant was Carl was hurting mikkel more than the other way around.he said Kessler was landing classy scoring shots

    Also his card was pretty much In keeping with most
    He has a hard job you know

    :lol: How he gave him the 11th is beyond me. It was Kesslers best round & had Froch hurt.

    That was the worst I have seen Watt, everyone in ours telling him to shut up going on about how he was breaking kesslers heart and carl was walking through him like they had the headlines pre-written. No such thing happened. Was a very close fight and I had it a draw I think.

    You can't commentate in retrospect
     
  10. He adamant the ref was going to stop it in the 12th but it was obvious to everyone else the ref was going to step in for a low blow but decided best not to when they were trading punch for punch

    Yep 11th round was kesslers... And amazing how the commentators and even post fight pundits became blind to frochs low blows at the end... "the referee wanted to stop it" brcame the official view. Its a disgrace.

    You have to remember, sky were trying to re-submit to the public ths sky box office stuff after the haye-audley disasters. They need to sell it like that

    Everybody knows what I think about Jim Watt. But for the first time last night I actually agreed with his scorecard....but then he had to revert to type for the last few rounds. Froch obviously won the last, but he did not win all three that clearly. I had the 10th a draw, 11th Kessler's and 12th Froch's.

    Watt had all three for Froch. :lol:

    Watt was doing so well aswell, and then it all went to ****. Like Watt I had it all level at the 6th, 57-57. Froch took the first three, Kessler from 3 to 6.

    Sky had a whisper in his ear towards the end of the fight and Watt obliged.

    118-110 though? Who was that judge? Carl's wife or mother? :-(

    Kessler WAS NEVER gonna win this fight with that sort of judging, even if he did enough to win. :deal

    Hes a dinosaur that just spouts utter bull****

    Hes either an absolute idiot or just reading of a sky script. Either way him and McRory are past there sell by date by a long way and have to go.

    Skys team make Boxnation look like HBO in comparison.

    I didn't think Watt was too bad last night. He lost it a bit towards the end, but that's an improvement from losing it before the start :D
