I'm not sure there is anyone there with such advanced knowledge and understanding, who would be able to make those necessary clarifications :maybe: :maybe:

Probably the only chance we have to get rid of this schmuck is to hope he’s caught up in some sort of sex scandal, but he seems asexual, so it’ll
probably along the lines of him caught masturbating in a theatre watching Morales/Barrera with his cock out

Don't you remember the clip where he was watching Scott Fitzgerald going nude for a weigh in, and was licking his lips, then he saw the camera and looked very sheepish

For me, especially with his commentary, I'd be surprised if he didn't like the sniff

Good coke, the proper stuff, only lasts half an hour, so he'd need to be going backwards and forwards to somewhere quiet. I just think that's what the producers want. I much prefer Mike Costello, but they got rid of him, presumably for not being animated enough.

Do we know if Demoltion Man is anyway linked to the awful crime of Tax Evasion that Wesley Snipes committed against the US Government?

No, it's just that some folk believe he carpet bombed Gaza, without dropping warning leaflets first

A warning to all those (including me) giving Mr Smith a hard time
PredatorHayds wrote: 21 Feb 2021, 09:43 Saw Adam Smith in the newsagents this morning. Top Bloke.

He was grabbing a crate of tennants super strength for the netball tomorrow.

Ice for his knuckles (He said it got tasty outside the arena last night)

40 Benson and Hedges

£5 worth of scratch cards.

Pork Scratchings

A copy of Red Hot Over 40’s housewives

And Aretha Franklin’s greatest hits.


I said Adam why Aretha. He just pointed at number 4 on the track listing and said ‘There’s the respect’


Top man. Obviously I didn’t look him in the eye. Everyone on the estate knows he walks heavy.

He only does the big cards.

Gotta rest his voice of course. Can’t be having Smith call these smaller cards. They’re beneath him.

Apparently he’s in demand and is heading out to Nigeria to commentate on the Ike ibeabuchi fight, as you’d expect.

The pay-per-view company laid on transport for him which was a small 2 man boat he took off
in two weeks ago.

Smith doesn't seem sincere at all to me, he puts on a risible act - false voice, false personality, growling, shouting etc

Are you enjoying tonight's fights any less given that they're using a novice commentator ? I think Barker's doing a perfectly adequate job just being himself and talking about the fight he's watching not irrelevant epic fights from the past

I wish him no ill health but....Smith is a C U Next Tuesday and I can't stand him.

His ego is preposterous. He acts like he's right up there with the stars of boxing.

He's disliked for a reason and his presence around boxing really grates.

Much better without Smith

Seems Smith's co commentators need to defer to him a bit

Suppose it would be unprofessional to tell smith to shut up mid fight

So much better without Smith. Smith would have ruined that fight with his pre fight narrative. Great fight, excellent commentary. Let’s have this every week please.

Absolutely Smith's commentary would have spoiled an excellent contest.

I actually watched it without muting the sound for a change !

We would have had 18 Barrera-Morales comparisons.

And when they hugged at the end, plenty of respect comments.

Is that actually true? I've never heard that before. I thought it was like a few hours thing.
