yeah they wanted roy and foreman to stay cause they where so great but they both quit... if foreman didn't have that damn grill... when jones lose i think he will be back he loves attention, can't do without it
Doesnt Roy had or still has problems with HBO He knew everything that was going on he should replace Kellerman hes annoying as hell i miss Merchant Roy, Jim and Larry was the best
Sorry but NO ONE is better than Roy Jones, he needs to come back asap. Lennox and Stewart got nothing on them and are sometimes downright annoying to listen to. Especially Lennox.

i completely agree, but i think its unlikely. the last tyson interview i saw mike didnt smile and his speech was very slurred. along with that, mike's constant run-ins with the law wont be very good for his commentating career.

that is a fantastic list!! i would love to see mike on hbo. it would be mad funny each fight night...
Tyson was pretty lousy the one time I've heard him commentate, during the Brown/Pettway, Hopkins/Mercado 2 card.
Besides, Tyson has burned bridges @ HBO anyway.
I would LOVE to have Mike Tyson as an announcer!! haha, I could only imagine some of the shit he would say, it would be pure comedy!!
But unfortunately the above statement is correct - he is not reliable at all and probably is drugged up.
BTW, something about Lennox Lewis just pisses me off when speaks. Some of the shit he says doesn't make any sense
Its because all Lennox does is repeat what Lampley just asked him.
Lamp: The jab is really working for him tonight isnt it Lennox?
Len: The jab is DEFinitely working for him tonight Jim.
i've seen Tyson commentate a few times...he's very knowledgable about the sport and knows his shit as far as past fights and people go...someone said it tho..UNRELIABLE..if wuznt for that..and his voice of course..he would do well...fuck it let Stuart Scott do it..or Dick Vital...its a knockout Baby
I like lennox lewis, he is funny. If not sugar ray leonard and oscar de la hoya would be good. Fmoyd mayweather Sr. Would befunny. But i must say i liked Roy jones
I wouldnt' be surprised if they signed Gatti to a contract just because they are so in love with him, Lampley would have a woody the whole night sitting next to him....
The best man for the job..... Antonio Tarver. Well-spoken, interesting, has a decent look about him and isn't a slow talker (In the sense of Larry, who it works for sometimes, or Lennox, who it never works for, ever)
I think Mike needs some healing. He just needs to be out of the public eye for a few years, and heal himself spiritually. I dont want to sound like a therapist or anything, but thats what he needs.
He'd be horrible. He's too drugged up right now. At FNF he sounded so out of it. And he's probably the most unreliable person they could find.
yeah maybe after he cleans up if he can clean up
