This is true. He rattles on a bit and some of his phrases are weird but he's clearly someone who loves and knows the sport and doesn't push any narrative. I like him, would listen to him over the vast majority of other commentators that we have to put up with.
I'm surprised he doesn't write a column. Though I'd pity his editor.

Nothing beats the sight of big Ron towering over his confused and exhausted interviewees, firing out questions that do several laps of the English language before making it into the ring, whereupon they just ignore him and thank God, their fans, etc

Why didn't he conduct the interviews for Groves-Eubank?

I'll need to rewatch the Gassiev fight but he made a comment about him having a top quality inbuilt gps tracker which made me spit my beer out at the time :salut:
