Whatever happened to Sean O'Grady?

Post in the classic section ma, get more responses.

 

Fine dont post it there then.:roll:

 

last i heard he was a real estate agent in Oaklahoma - but i could be mistaken

 

Maybe it was his knack for interviewing trainers while their fighters were getting KO'd, maybe it was the fact that he never aged a day, but he got the heave and ho out of the broadcast booth.

Me, I liked him. Better than Kellerman anyday.

 

Didn't he do commentary for a while? He wasn't that good at it so he probably got fired. I remember that time he did commentary for the second Gonzalez fight or maybe it was the third but he upset his partner, that chic hearn sound alike and I remember he once said mancini takes a good punch for an Italian.

He also offended hector Camacho visibly after his magnificent kayo victory over Leonard and drove him off leaving Sean standing there talking to himself.

 

O'Grady was the comentator on the USA Network's Tuesday/Thursday fights with Al Alberts (Brother of Marv and Steve)

 

Actually I think the last time I have seen Sean was the Moorer/Jirov fight a couple years ago I think it was.

 

Sean O'Grady sucked as an announcer. He mis-read the action worse than Jim Lampley. His insights were about as deep as Yoel Judah's corner advice. He repeated the same stuff every week more than Teddy Atlas. And his interviews were as awkward as Jim Grey's... even though he only stuck to questions like, "how did you feel going into the tenth round?".

But he did sound and look good.

 

I think he does a teatime chat show on channel 4!

 

Believe he is working for FSN right now, on the few shows they actually put out there, but I want to say he's still there.

 

Sean and Teddy Atlas would be nice.

 

Sean was good with Al Albert on USA fights. He still does PPV telecasts once in a while. Im kind of suprised Showtime didnt pick him up to work with Steve.
