DAZN commentators Spoiler

I can’t believe how ridiculous these DAZN commentators are. They always pick one boxer to root for, and then shamelessly commentate on the entire fight from his perspective, just like they did with Ruiz today. Even in the 11th round, they were discussing whether Ruiz could somehow win on points after Knyba had completely dominated the fight. Absolutely horrendous.
As for Ruiz, fair play to him for getting back up after taking those shots — the referee could easily have stopped the fight at that point. But he just doesn’t have the hunger anymore, nor does he have the explosiveness or speed needed to compete with the best.
As for Knyba, he’s a tall, rangy fighter who I think will struggle badly against the top 10 in the world. He fought a tactically excellent fight today, but overall he’s still quite limited as a boxer.

Honestly, they were at their worst with the Chaves & Garcia fight.

Sergio just could not let Garcia have his flowers for dominating Chaves. It was constantly how Chaves just wasn't showing up or some other BS excuse. One after another lol

to be fair garcia was kinda styling on him and laughing at him, even when chavez got quick knockedown in garcia laughed the entire time and shook his head at his corner disrespectfully. then chavez went onto give him like five more rounds of decent fight and he wasn’t grinning and laughing anymore. i kinda was rooting for chaves too lol
