    Did you enjoy you Jim Watt free weekend? This weekend on British tele you could have watched Atlas, Al Bernstein and Duke McKenzie as the boxing experts in the commentary teams. Seeings as we have a Jim Watt thread every Sunday I wanted to hear what you thought without him? Personally I favor Watt over McKenzie any day.

    Mckenzie is the only guy around that makes Jim watt look good, although I'd didnt hear him last night. I liked Bernstein though. Made for a nice change if nothing else.

    I thought the Primetime commentary was worse than Jim Watt.

    The ass kissing of 'King' Khan and Primetime was nauseating.

    Lots of very silly things were said.


    Give me Jim any day.

    Bernstein is one of the don's of commentary nowadays. Darke's not a analyst he's just the guy who calls the action while the other guy talks you through the action.

    I did think it was refreshing having someone different (Bernstein) for a change, but in terms of getting the true feel for a big fight, its Ian Darke every time for me.

    Sorry to say McKenzie is poo.

    Bernstein is excellent, will always make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

    Bernstein is the dogs balls!


    Hagler - Hearns - "What a first round!...Maybe the best in middleweight history!"



    Bernstein + Gil Clancy + Colonel Bob Sheridan = makes the sport x 5 better
