    Watt is guaranteed to use this line in EVERY fight too.

    never acually seen a Watt commentary but saw a few interviews and he seems to try to go for the drama when it is not really necessary.

    Watt alwys does my head in but I like Darke.

    When he was teamed up with Glen in the 90s was the best tv team IMO.

    Agree on Watt. So irritating. I like Darke though, his voice creates atmosphere. He isn't an out and out boxing man though so I don't expect him to be an expert.

    Darke is ok, but Watt basically decides who's winning a fight at the opening bell & sticks with it from there or does his best to make sure they win on 'his card'. Plus he doesn't half want EVERY fight stopped at the slightest excuse. Admittedly there are some fights where I can see his point (imo both Pac-Cotto & PBF-Mosley should have been stopped at about 8th-10th rounds as it was clear neither was going to win, weren't in the fight & they just took unnecessary punishment), but a fight like the Katsidis-Guerrero fight, I never felt Katsidis was out of it, even as he fell further behind.
