knockout wrote: ↑26 Dec 2018, 10:08 Ron is a top bloke with a lot of love for the game, he knows what he is talking about. Furthermore he has the respect of the fighters, promoters , trainers etc because he has been around the game for quite some time.

To suggest, as some have, that he gets the work because of his ethnicity, is in pretty poor taste. He does a good job and is more than qualified for the role and whilst his delivery may not be everyone’s cup of tea, other viewers enjoy it.

No one is going to please everyone, as we are a diverse audience, who have different tastes.

He is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, doesn’t have an agenda to push and is impartial.

Sure he may have a few flaws to iron out and constructive criticism is probably welcome but keep it respectful.

Chances are he comes on these forums, and to read some of the earlier comments wouldn’t be very pleasant for him. He isn’t earning millions of tax payers money from the BBC like some of their host and presenters.

To what extent has he been around the game! Adam Smith is certainly enthusiastic too as are the posters on the forum!
And also knowledge? I'm sure Adam smith could list off all the world champions etc but for me he understands little about boxing. Knowledge is one thing, especially if you have a script! Understanding is quite different.
I do appreciate live tv is very difficult and this is where people often get caught out by their lack of understanding.
Bunce gets caught out all the time by talking nonsense, but this is a guy who has often single handedly fronted a lot of live tv, I forgive him for some of his nonsense, but he doesn't get caught out on his understanding.
