I really can't stand this guy and I KNOW he's commentating on the Pac-Morales fight b/c Darke was doing the Magee fight on Friday. Smith knows the result and will have written out everything he wants to say. When you compare Smith to the likes of Darke/Lampley, he really is terrible. I'm keeping the volume down and turning on some music while I watch the fight.
The fact is, he is an annoying little runt who NOBODY likes, so should he retire and save himself the inevitable bad sentiments he will get from boxing fans???

He is appauling. When fighters are taking the ringwalk and for the first 30 seconds of a fight he so obviously reading a script. Love to see what would happen if somebody got sparked.
He insults our intelligence biggin up guys like Nigel Wright and Dean Hickman who for all their honest endeavour are never going to make it big.
If he is not overplaying fighters he always has to make it a fairytale chance for somebody.
Compared to Darke it is Barcelona v Accroington Stanley and that is on one of his better days.
But he fits the corporate image well and Sky love all that bull - should he be retired? YES

He's crap.
He shouts too much.
He talks too much.
He states the obvious.
He should pack it in.
