Sky, as long as there isn't a British boxer fighting.
That depends though mate. Jim Watt doesn't think any other British fighter than himself should ever be world champ, so he can be a bit of a cock in the other direction to be honest.Quote:

But the best broadcasters in my opinion are Japanese and Spanish broadcasters, you don't know what the fuck they are saying, but's it's exciting as hell.;D
Jim Watt believes any fighter in a spot of bother be "pulled out of there by his corner".
Every fucking time. ;D
I prefer HBO.... I always enjoy Manny stewarts comments particularly... But I just get more sense of occasion through the HBO commentation...
Jim Watt:
''He's too negative Ian, he's not doing the things he's supposed to be doing Ian. His defence is terrible. My life is shit, I hate my job Ian. Please let me die''
;)
I much prefer Showtime ;)
And yes those Japanese commentators are crazy ''OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! HAAAAAAIIIIIII!!! OYASUMI NASAAAAAIIIIII!!!!!!!!'' :o
Sky has been better since John Rawling replaced Adam Smith.
That, and...Quote:

Thought it was great how they mentioned Groves had peaked too early in training, forgetting that he was scheduled to have a fight 2 weeks ago.
Sky should sign up a certain American. They could, literally, have a dream team. ;D

haha yeah Larry & Panic Merchant 8)
I always liked ian darke on sky best - think he does the football for espn in US now
Ian Darke is a legend. Done everthing. Pretty sure he used to do football for Sky back in the day. Darts, boxing too - he's a sports whore.Quote:

Sky should get that Eurosport Guy. The one who commentates on absolutely fucking everything.
At 6:45 he'll have a 15 minute slot on EuroGoals. At 7 he'll have an hour on a Canadian Triathlon and at 8 he'll be stuck with The European Polo Championships. He's a legend that guy. He knows everything.
I still love HBO it has a good balance of Jim's hyperbole, manny's senile comments and good boxing insights of emmanuel plus who can resist the penetrating owl like eye of max.geezzz lol
Never heard Sky but pretty sure I'd take them over Jim Bam Bam Lampley. Shit I'd take Kid thunder after a bottle of MD 20/20 on the mic over lampley
