Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I don’t think Ron is too bad, especially when compared to Adam Smith.

I love the lanky, verbose freak !
Never uses one word when 13 words, two sub-clauses, a thesaurus and some footnotes will suffice.

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I once saw him in the Lidl in Wembley, he is a weird looking freak...but he may have thought the same about me.
He annoyed me last night when he was asking Warrington who he would like to fight next. He then kept on rambling all different opponents instead of letting Josh answer. Geezer doesnt know when to be quiet. He's a blurter.

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I don't mind Ron at all, he has his own style that can grate but he's ok. Adam Smith is the only one who makes me want to turn the sound down. He's played his part in making boxing high profile in the UK again, but a commentator he is not. He doesn't have an opinion on anything and can't read a fight.

"Here's the challenger, his father ran away before he was born, his mother was a prostitute, his brother was murdered, his sister was raped, he had to fight to survive and get out of the ghetto of Tunbridge Wells"

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I can't remember it to even paraphrase it, but what is it that Smith said about about a comment not being a reference to the 9/11 attacks?! I just remember it being a pure Alan Partridge moment lol.Flump wrote: ↑23 Dec 2018, 05:46 I don't mind Ron at all, he has his own style that can grate but he's ok.

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
It's clear Smith writes his script, or has it written for him before the fight.banjo wrote: ↑23 Dec 2018, 13:40Smith's great at creating a backstoryFlump wrote: ↑23 Dec 2018, 05:46 I don't mind Ron at all, he has his own style that can grate but he's ok.

If the fight doesn't go according to plan, he normally just carries on reading his script.

To be fair nobody says Hamilton came from a ghetto, just that he didn't come from money, he was just fortunate he had a father who worked several jobs and didn't piss his earnings away in the pub or the bookies like so many blokes do.

Yeah "bomber isn't a reference to the attack on the Ariana Grande concert" or something like that the prized wankpot.

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I’ll fight any man or beast to the death over this. Adam Smith is the worst commentator in sports history, he’s quite possibly the worst human being to have ever graced the planet.

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I just always think of that video now that boxer from Nottingham did, "That big black skellington", can't get it out of my head every time I see him.
Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?
I quite like Ron’s commentating, makes a change from the usual, not so sure about his ring interviewing after fight even just for aesthetic reasons, looked very odd interviewing Warrington.
