Never uses one word when 13 words, two sub-clauses, a thesaurus and some footnotes will suffice.

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.

Smith's great at creating a backstory

"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"

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.

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.

It might have been that! Ha. All I remember was that it was the most awkward effing poo to listen too. You're thinking to yourself, Jesus Christ, just stfu.

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

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. Absolute wanker
