main event commentary?

Post by adamheight »

how come australias main event doesnt have its own commentators?

when they purchase rights for big fights do they have 2 prices? one where u just buy the coverage and one where u buy the commentator too? i guess if it costs more for the commentator it still isnt as much as shipping some guys out there to commentate. it would be better though. because then we would probably have analysts in a studio somewhere in aus too.

Commentators call from ringside. You would miss too much calling on a televised fight.

I think you touched on the answer when you mentioned the cost of setting up your own commentry team overseas.
