Does Anybody Actually Mute the Commentary??

[Althugz]

I hear this a lot..that some of you "mute" the tv to watch the fight.

Are you serious or is that said in jest? I get it..the commentary is shit more often than not but how can you watch a fight in absolute silence? You cant hear the crowd or the weight of the shots etc. The latter is especially important to me.

Does anybody actually do what they say or just say it in order to sound cool? Just makes no sense to me to kill most of the audio excitement in a match.

If I'd tried to mute the TV last night... I'd gotten mugged by the 20-some people watching the fight in my house.

I only watch fights blindfolded and without audio while practicing Zen Buddhism. You get a much better feel for the action that way.

No keep it on as i want to hear the crowd but have it a low volume if the commentator is talking crap.

Only when re-watching a fight to get a fair score card.
Not when it's live.

I mute the Polish commentary on streams cause it puts me to sleep and the German commentary because I expect goose stepping at any moment. I grow tired of Merchant and Lamply and usually turn them off or rather off and on. Sheridan last night was unbearable. I don't mind the Quebec cards or the Spanish cards be it Mexican, Colombian, Argentina etc and mute it about 50% of the time. I do listen to the Brits commentators a lot and the atmosphere is always great.

Think that's the perfect balance right there..we had a group of 5, put it on low volume so we could still hear the shots and the crowd but we muffled the commentary for the most part through our own discussions.

Good thing too because when we stopped discussing, we had to endure Boxnations puke-worthy commentary..

They were American's who were doing it, but they were riding on Mayweather like some gay obsessed guys.

Is that because the American commentary is so accurate, unbiased ,eloquent and informative, or just because you are xenophobic?

Objection your honour, that is a leading question.

I only ask because you seem to begrudge us a rightfully earned capital B.

I only watch fights in slow motion so I can win arguments on here.

Just watch the fight the commentary can be funny at times, remember it's just there opinion you don't have to agree. Judge the fight yourself it's part of watching a fight on tv the commentary.
