Richie Woodhall

[dalcumly]

Is anyone else becoming as impressed with Woodhall's technical knowledge on TV and his ability to accurately assess the skills of fighters featuring on SKY ?
For my money he's doing a first class job . Well done .

[punchers chance]

Yes, I think he's made for TV, nice easy going style but plenty of info for the hardcore fans too

[alexpaterson]

He really impressed me at the last olympics with his commentary, glad sky have taken him up

[gobbles]

Not only has a great knowledge, but he does his homework on all the fights too. He is not one of those pundits who just turns up and tries to blag it.

[Ketchel]

Always been a class act. I hope he becomes a constant fixture.

Him and Rawling behind the mics for Setanta was just an awesome commentary team.

Always been a class act. I hope he becomes a constant fixture.

Love to see him up there ,Cant stand the sh..t that comes out of Glen McClory mouth

[dondada]

Richie's the man

[jessi]

His knowledge of boxing and over all tv awareness is second to none !

[jessi]

He's a fine reader of a fight, believe you me.

Ha ha, " believe you me "

He's a fine reader of a fight, believe you me.

KG was merely trying to sit down on his punches whilst simultaneously keeping it long.

Fully agree, Richie is a great reader of the game and knows it inside out!! A genuine person too.. I'd love to see him and Ed Robinson as the permanent sky commentary team! To be fair though I think McGuigan & McCory speak a lot of sense, the only one I fail to agree with on a regular basis is Watt! For me he contradicts himself far too much.... IMHO

[DavidPayne]

McCrory isn't bad but you always sense he's trying to read the judges and likely winner rather than summerising the action. Round 12 of McCloskey is a classic example.

While Watt told us all of VK strategy after he threw one punch.

Always get the sense Woodhall has done his homework, always get the sense McCrory hasn't so much.

And why does the start of the answer always begin "you know"

Er, no, that's why he's asking.

Always liked Woodhall, comes across very knowledgeable. Also he is not as biased as the others. And refreshing to listen too.
