They are actually telling us whats going on in the fight.
You can see what's going on when watching though, it's why football commentary on tv is much different from on the radio.
True, True, but bloody hell, it's exciting.
Which is what Commentary should be, regardless of the source of broadcast (tv or radio etc.)

this is a one-sided as something off a friday fight night undercard where some import covers up for the whole fight

Froch now going through the gears and pushing this joker back...
Abraham showing lots of redness on the face, with Froch looking fresh.
Lovely body work from froch that must see him 7 up.
70/63 Froch and cruising.

Froch threw fewer jabs in the early part of the round, and the fight looked slower.
Froch, around the halfway mark drove Abraham back to the corner, but Abraham caught most on his gloves.
The Armenian doesn't look good, though.
Froch moved back to working behind the jab later in the round. Snapping Abraham's head right back at one stage. Froch flashes out a nice combination, the right hook of which landed, I think, but not dangerously.
Froch landed a heavy right to the body at the bell, and again, I think it hurt Abraham. He might not like it here.
Froch 10-9
(Froch 70-63)

Froch's bird: "Come on Cobra!!! Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo". :x
Froch boxing to orders and took every round for me. AA doing little but that high guard.

Abraham still struggling to get past the jab.
The Armenian is really getting bullied here. Froch pushing him to the ropes and unloading!
Abraham doesn't seem to like it. Is he trying to sucker Carl or is he really under the cosh?
Oh, lovely shoulder roll and then uppercut counter to the body from Froch. Beautiful boxing. Right out of the Freddie Roach coaching manual.
8. Froch 10-9

Froch has been excellent in keeping his head and sticking to his gameplan.

Froch is too in control for poor judging to be a factor.

It might be, but I've never seen him in this state after the early rounds before.
Is he that bad? Or has Froch been that good?

More subdued in the early part of the round as Froch is content to control matters with the jab. i'm surprised how many get past the guard. Abraham obviously catches a lot, but not all.
Abraham taking a few rights, which are enough to stop him in his tracks without hurting him badly.
The commentators are going wild, but Abraham isn't hurt that badly, although Froch is dominating.
Abraam looking forlorn.

In fairness I think Froch is making him look bad.
