They got the pictures from Setanta and voiced the commentary over them. Both guys had already seen the fight so it entirely removed the passion/excitement etc. from the commentary. They should have just put the Five Live radio commentary over the video instead.

Junior Witter is the worst commentator ever, just from a can't-understand-what-he's-saying point of view.
yea totally agree,it really did sound like they were watching it in their living rooms.ive had a few beers right now and its annoying me because i just think of the casual/potential new fans watching it.
The commentary completely ruined it, although most of the viewers will have watched it in the pub so the crap commentary doesn't let it down as much.

I must have given out 50 DVDs with the Kessler/Lacy fights on to various people this week, even when I knew the Kessler fight was going to be on the BBC. I'm pleased I did it now.
