Its very frustrating to hear and its a real insult to boxing fans when they talk such garbage. Its a shame because I liked Glenn but if hes going to be spouting that kind of rubbish constantly, then i'l have no time for him and I assume most boxing fans watching would feel the same. Its probably the worst comment I've ever heard on Sky.

lighten up, eh?

He gets paid a salary off sky and is trying to sell a product.

"He's boxing a world class JOURNEYMAN here so it will be good to see him against a man who has been at the top"

what the hell is nicky on about?

trying to say something original?

That's like when Jim Neilly said something like "He was looking world class until he was knocked out in the first round"

i think neilly also said johnny tapia is the kind of guy you'd like to take home to meet your mother

and that ab judah is one of the all time greats

but you get the impression that he believed in what he was saying

these weirdo comments by the sky team don't come across as authentic. it's like it's all been pre scripted and they don't believe in what they're saying particularly much.

Neilly also during MAB fight said MAB had Tapia written on shorts as a tribute to Johnny Tapia

I remember that one, what a dumb fvcker he is

....grumble.

the product quality has dropped badly, and this has taken the commentary down big time

british commentators are becoming a laughing stock which is unfortunate as i've always thought they were better than the OTT yanks, and the aussies and irish who have to make one sided fights seem competitive ("although bornord dunne has won every round, this is a warld class opponent who's making him fight for every point")
