Hopefully Darke although I'll probably be too tired/drunk to care

Anyone know if Darkie is commentating on the big fight?
Oh yeah i agree, he's awful. Stick him and Bunce together and mute the two of them! I sooooooo hope they don't have him on that show they should reserved for the top guys.

I'd be very surprised if Ian Darke is not behind the mike for this one.

They have to have their main man Darke for this one, it's no time for amateurs. If it's Smith they should offer half price.

Smith is maligned, and I understand why, but I hear he's a decent man and a top pro, so I won't get involved in that.
To be honest to Smith, Darke is an exceptional commentator and the best boxing commentator since Reg and Harry were prowling around the terrestrial airwaves, and, to be frank, I think he stands up to both.
Darke and Watt, to me, are the best combination in boxing -- either side of the Atlantic.
Although. I. Do have. A softspot. For La-rry Mer-chant.

I sure hope Adam Smith doesn't do this fight. Can't think of anyone more annoying!

Adam Smith and Duke Mckenzie, now that's a pairing that would lead to the TV being thrown out the window or at least put on mute.

Well said, Carbo. I agree with all of that.
