Sky Commentary (spoilers)

Yet again- the Barker fight- spending the last 6 rounds obsessing about the score cards, then managing to get it very wide of the mark.

Why do they feel the need to do that? Why not just commentate on the ACTION like they do in America, and not speculate so much.

It takes away from the excitment of the fight, in my opinion.

In fairness, I thought the scorecards should have been closer than they were but I agree, they are useless at commentating. I have often turned off the sound on certain fights where I just can't bare to listen to it. At times they seem to call the fight depending on Skybets odds.

Spencer Oliver would be good for the commontary, I still like Watt though I think he speaks sense and knows his stuff, he is negative though.

Watt is extremely negative.

Nice bloke though, chatted to him a couple of times.
