    Andy Kerr is obviously the worst, basically because he isn't actually a Boxing Pundit.........from his analysis it seems to me he thinks Marco Huck is amongst the 'Elite' :rofl


    Andy Kerr is by far the worst, awkward, isn't great at reading his lines, but he kinda' works as he's a polite, calming influence on Bunce (I have seen the camera cut to Andy quite a few times whilst he's in the middle of gesturing to Buncey to 'cut it' or 'wrap it up'!!!)

    Buncey's cool, although he perpetually rams his head up the arses of his guests, which can be annoying.

    Andy Kerr is a legend.

    Barry McGuigan has lost all his credibility; he used to be a good commentator, but now he just says what the station wants him to say.

    Lummox Lewis doesn't know what the hell he's talking about, which is surprisingly entertaining.

    Ian Darke and Jim Watt are just dull yes-men.

    Usually after someone has just landed a moderate jab or a scuffing hook to the body.

    Yeah, it was early on during Furlan(?)/Duddy; maybe the 2nd round? I'm pretty sure that was the one - I could very well be wrong. They never introduce themselves, so it could very well be Magee.

    edit: You're definitely right on it being in Cordoba/Dunne... found that in one of my own posts, even. :patsch Sigh. I really don't feel like rewatching any portion of Duddy/Furlan to see if I somehow managed to be right as well.

    I definately think LL could be decent, he definately comes up with some nice one liners...

    'Its Ovaaaa' was definately a good one.

    Manny Steward is generally very good.

    I vote Jim Watt because he ALWAYS slags off 'hands down' fighters, and when they take a punch he emphasises the point which is stupid because in boxing boxers GET HIT!!

    When I rewatched Nipple/McCline, I was surprised by Steward's long rants about robotic jabbing heavyweights.

    I can't stand listening to Duke he always calls it wrong and then after the fight he says he knew that would happen.

    Darke.

    Easily.

    Excitable fool. Isn't even a boxing pundit. Does the same thing a supercasual (British) follower of boxing does; draw parrallels between everyone and Ricky Hatton and Mike Tyson. But at least he has a semi-authorative voice that creates some sort of illusion he has any idea what he's watching.

    The Setanta team look like they're in somebodys basement recording a podcast.
