Even though it's been wheeled out a million times "Henry's Hammer" was a great punch :bag:

I’d like to see “and there’s the respect” said after every contest.

Even if there is no respect? And they don’t hug?

I don’t think Adam ‘Soundbite’ Smith cares what’s actually happening in the ring..... just as long as he can wheel his cliches out whilst growling like a rogue lion.....

I wonder who would win a growling contest between Adam Smith and John McDonald ?

John only growls when he’s announcing a tricky surname.....like Smith.

I think Smith has the edge. McDonald only growls for the intro like ‘Paul Arrrrrghhhh’ whereas Smith’s growling has more longevity....

For obvious reasons I don’t think it would happen but I’d love to see Barry McGuigan back doing punditry. He was brilliant on Sky. The only one that would ever tell the truth.

Ian Darke & Barry Jones commentating.

Dempsey presenting.

Bunce interviewing.

Punditry dream team of McGuigan, Naz, Froch & Hatton. It’d be a right laugh.

Ronald is my least favourite commentator or presenter. Talks far too much and most of it unnecessary.

He probably does talk too much when co commentating but i like him on his own, reads a fight very well and who doesnt like 2 fisted Fusiliers during the opening stanza?

It would be great to have McCrory and Darke commentating again and Dempsey would be my presenter too, I guess Jim Rosenthal is knocking on a bit!
I like Barry Jones and Paul Smith a lot too.

With the Sky team they have to tow the company line. Nelson gets a lot of stick. And deservedly so, but he speaks well and has great knowledge and experience, just a pity he is not allowed to show it.
Essentially Smith has to take the blame as he is the head man.
