:rofl

 

He was a very flamboyent boxing promoter back in the day.

There aren't any good British MCs. The only good ones (IMO) are Buffer, Lennon Jr and Martínez. The guy at Fury vs Firtha - I think that he was the one at Froch vs Pascal and he was **** there. He's improved a bit since then.

 

There are some good ones mate, they're just not on TV.

 

I can't believe that we are discussing, at some considerable length, the comparitive qualities of a few blokes whose only job is to read out some **** written on a card. How difficult can it be?, and more pertinent, how important is it? All the ring announcer bollocks adds absolutely nothing to a fight in my opinion...I just end up screaming at Buffer or whoever just to get the **** on with it.

 

Think I may have found out why Fwank still employs him. From FW's wikipedia:

Ray is Mark's brother so he must be mates with Fwank as well. Mystery solved.

 

I wonder if Frank's banging Bev..
