Darke and Watt

For me the best guy for the job is Jim Rosenthal he did the Tommy Hearns v Duran , Hearns v Roldan and Andries v Hearns in the uk , he was great , calling the fight punch for punch.
Jim also did radio so you have to call it right.

Yeah, but it's not hard to call a fight if it's one bloke administering a heavy beating to another is it

Roldan v Hearns was give and take while it lasted

As in Hearns giving & Roldan taking?

I've complained about Jim scoring for his favourite and trying to tally his score with the HBO guys over the years, but I still like him. He's been calling fights now for decades. Anyone doing it that long is gonna have plenty of dodgy nights.

At the end of Morales-Maidana he said he was scoring for Morales with his heart. At least he admitted the bias.

Jim Watt is an expert after the event !

Ian Darke left Sky to commentate on Premier League games for the US market, I didn't realise that e had been retained for the boxing until Sunday Morning.

I prefer John Rawling, but Darke's OK. It's probably time Jim Watt retired though, not that I'm sure who should replace him. I quite liked John Thaxton on the one fight I heard him on ITV4 (?).

I want someone to call the fight as it happens punch for punch , they can talk crap between rounds , most pundits just fucking witter on .
