    OH MY GAWD HE HIT HIM WITH THE JAB!!!!

    MARQUEZ NEEDS TO STAY OUTSIDE PACQUIAO'S LEFT FOOT!!!

    JUST LOOK AT MARQUEZ'S RIPPED PHYSIQUE!!

    LOOK!! LOOK AT PACQUIAO'S MUSCULAR LEGS, THEY'RE SO BIG!!

    WATCH FOR PACQUIAO'S CALF MUSCLE, WHEN IT TENSES HE'S ABOUT TO PUNCH!!

    Was it just me annoyed by him? Ruined the fight for me a bit.

    Benny Ricardo is so funny though. No one should be allowed to slate him for anything he says.. It takes some bollocks to walk round with that hair (toupee)

    Appalling, spoiled it a bit for me too. The studio pundits talking all the way through the ring walks annoyed me too...in fairness though I wasn't on best of form after staying up til 5am just on tea.

    Benny was and usually is murder.
    He was an NFL star as far as I know,and he tried to describe JMM's misplaced feet at the KD as if it was some undiscovered gem of boxing knowledge he was kind enough to share with us.

    The Primetime presenting team was awful.

    Ryan Rhodes sounds like he's been hit one too many times. The presenter with the teeth is terrible, although Woodhall is ok.

    Benny Ricardo is annoying to listen too, and Wayne McCulloch sounded completely uninterested, despite a potential FOTY taking place.

    I thought they were bearable, thought it was a bit weird when they almost got into a religion debate though...

    Benny Ricardo was horrific though.

    I don't doubt McCulloch knows plenty about the sport, however he obviously wasn't being paid by the word last night! He was utterly gormless to listen too on the rare occasion he spoke. Then you had an overly enthusiastic Ricardo with a slightly bizarre obsession with the boxers calf muscles and how they tensed before throwing punches.

    Was awful to listen to.
