    Just watched this and I have to say I am drunk as shit but neither dude landed much so have to go on agression and give it to porter, but that was a SHIT fight, there was more holding than if wladdy fought ruiz. Brook proved far more durable than I thought and I have to admit I was wrong in thinking he'd be kod but that was seriously just a shit fight and glad i caught it now instead of forgoing a night on the town to watch this shit.

    Sky need to get rid of him. He does no research and would appear he only watches boxing he commentates on. He cant score for shit and decides whos won the round with 40 seconds left in the round and wont change his mind based on what happens in the last 40 seconds unless there is some serious damage done.

    Sky have a lot of guys who would do a much better job then Watt. Its very frustrating.

    I had Brook clearly winning 116-112.

    Watt was giving Porter rounds for ineffective aggression.

    I think the right hands that Alex Arguello landed on Jim Watt may have effected him.

    Yeah, actually his knowledge is poor, but there is something nostalgic about those 2 together for me.

    I thought porter had won but brook hurt porter..porter never had brook in any trouble.

    Khan will outbox brook.

    Jim watts scoring is often rubbish but I think he's the best commentator around, really helps with the excitement of the fight

    His enthusiasm and tones and accent is second to none

    Even his shit scoring helped with the anticipation of the result, I thought brook was a couple of rounds up but watts scores made me really doubt it, I was on the edge of me seat waiting for the announcement

    I like Jim but there does not seem to be a middle ground with him. He's either spot on or is watching a different fight. Believe it or not a lot of people saw it the same way he did. Some of the early rounds were really tough to score.

    He is the most absolute crap out there and should be got rid of, he never judges a fight correctly and was laughable last night. As for his accent, why isn't he working for BBC Scotland? We sure as hell cant understand him down here.
    I dont see why we should pay good money for an english TV channel and then get a non english speaker commentating! Whining miserable negative bastard whenever an englishman is fighting. Just put an extra 6 courses of bricks on top of Hadrians wall after the 'referendum' and make sure the bastards on the Jock side, we dont want him down here.
    I'm sorry to sit on the fence here.....

    I think he's pretty terrible as well in truth, and that's a good point made by SilkeyJoe(how do you do that mention thingy?). It does seem he'll often announce how a round has gone when there is stil half of it remaining, and then call the rest of the action to suit his pick, or just ignore it completely. The fact that I also find his voice incredibly irritating makes him an easy dislike for me :P
