Hey Diffie if you read this.. 

 

You can’t pronounce Honda .. you say Honder. 

But then you go to say Justin Cooper and you say Coopa? At this point I think you’re trying to sound like an idiot

It's challenging when you've had a different accent your whole life.

nahh its not even the accent , cause I kno one commentator tht have a heavy accent & he is brilliant on the mic when he does boxing & mma events , he was with wwe for a few yrs but backstage politics happened so he left to be a boxing & mma commentator, Mauro Ranallo does his homework & puts in the effort to get shit right on commentary table

At least he managed to get the camera crew to change the view to another fight on track by keeping track of split times and saying that they should keep track of Malcom closing in on Webb.

That’s the difference between someone that understands how to work with racing production and someone who just talk about what’s in front of his eyes and then acts surprised when the camera changes and he get to see a fight that he have missed.

I'd rather listen to that Rutledge Wood guy than Leigh Diffey.

He does mention off screen battles here and there. I love the passive aggression towards the directors

I mean it's pretty annoying when half the broadcast team that is shipped in barely speaks the same language as the primary audience simply as an attempt to give the thing an air of sophistication. I'm sure the Japanese love their rider and brands being butchered constantly. Shimoder. Honder. That's not an accent thing.

That’s the way to do it. Paul Malin does it all the time in the GP’s to. Not just blabber on what’s in front of him.

If you see that a more important fight is brewing off screen it’s your duty to get the tv crew to show it.

The same language? It’s English, what do you think they speak, Australian? It’s English, with an Australian accent. I’m sure the Japanese understand this and couldn’t give less of a shit.

This is just a crazy thing to wake up with on a Sunday morning to complain about. And here I am, arguing with someone online about what a fuckin’ accent is, lol.

There are plenty of legitimate complaints about Diffey. This is not one of them.

Yeah just an accent thing. I can still remember being a teenager and hearing for the first time how Bailey said Yarmahar in a Nationals broadcast, I laughed my ass off. Years later working at a Yamaha dealership we used to mimic that accent around the shop. 
But you know what? Not for one minute did we think any less of Bailey or any other American because of their  accent. Funny thing to be offended by. Says more about you than them.

I think some of you are missing the point. The actual accent I don’t care about. 

Honda.. with an A. But he adds the ER to words that end in A. So he has the ability to say coopER but then adds the A to say Coopa. Say cooper like he says Honda and he would say it correctly.

Funny that you have a problem with him pronouncing Honda since all the Americans pronounce it H(a)nda.. with an A instead of O.. 

can we just put this to rest and live with it that people have different accents. It should be easy for someone to understand that lives in a country that is built on immigrants from all over the world.
