Best Boxer Analyst HBO Had?

[HaglerSteelChin]

HBO has had several notable boxers who were analysts for fights. I think SRL was their best analyst when he worked in the early 1980's but there was also guys like George Foreman, Roy Jones, and Lennox Lewis. Who do you regard as the best boxer analyst they had? I regard Emmanuel Steward their best analyst but he won't be included since he is mainly regarded as a trainer. Poll to follow.

I loved Roy on the mic. He should do more announcing.

[Joey Giardello]

My favourite always was roy jones

"Sugar" Ray Leonard had the knowledge,the charisma and the charm to carry fights on his voice alone.He worked alongside an interested,prime Larry Merchant and an underrated barry Thompkins which capped off the greatest commentary team in the history of the sport of boxing.


Emanuel Steward doesn't have charisma and doesn't seem to realise that nobody gives a cares about who had a great amateur career.

[any craic lad?]

Either roy or george

No contest. Roy is one of the greatest color commentators of all time. After he gets ko'd again, he should go back to doing it full time.

George was always entertaining and not afraid to tell it how it is.

I think steward is the smartest, yet he doesn't bring exitement to the fight like jim's overly dramatic voice. I like George Foreman to, and Roy was a decent commentator.

Roy Jones is one boxer who has provided a positive role model for young people. He is totally disciplined in his approach to training, avoids drugs and drink completely, is highly involved in his hometown community, and dedicates much of his time to charitable organizations.
