Hopkins boxing knowledge is amazing. He would be a perfect commentator. The way he's able to break his opponent down by studying them is very unique in his own method. Lennox brings absolutely shit to the commentating team and I just can't stand anything he says. Never a useful or insightful piece he mentions ever. Always he says shit that the common viewer can even say, no shit, or DUH! He's really lame, has no personality and just needs the boot already. Benard would be equal to Roy in the way he knows his shit, just less cocky as Roy always is. But, I rather have Benard on all the time instead of just on BAD. So the days either Merchant or Steward can't make it, use Hopkins instead, or once Merchant or Steward retires, use B-hop!
Teddy Atlas is terrible - they should hire B-Hop as his permanent replacement.
whoa i like atlas a lot i think he;s a great commentator and gives really good insight and always tells it as it is. kellerman can be annoying sometimes but he knows his stuff and you can see that he's a real fan of the sport. stewart is good too.
but lewis and george do drive me nuts when i hear them, because for all their experience they rarely say anything meaningful, constructive or give any real 'boxers' insight to fights. they always say the same obvious shit like go to the body, double jab, and make bad references/comparisons.
the only thing i miss about george is he'd always say stupid shit and get merchant and lampley pissed off.
American commentators are ridiculously bias when it comes to international fights.
In the Dibb fight on the Hopkins undercard the commentating was disgraceful.
Hopkins filled in for Teddy Atlas earlier this year on an ESPN show and did a damn good job. He's as good, if not better, than Kevin Kelley.
I missed that one, I stand corrected.
I don't think he's the commentator type, a guy like Kevin Kelley would be really good, Kevin Kelley used to commentate a few fights here and there, really enjoyed listening to him.

really? I've always thought he made shit up on the fly?like if
"you get a guy hurt don't try to finish him off, keep knocking him down"
who said that george?
haha..
he had some stupid moments, esp when hed side with the punchers, but i like the guy.. he talked smooth and for the most part knew what he was saying..
george was a great broadcaster..
lennox had no personality and is lethargic..
bhop would make an excellent commentator.. he stuttors sometimes tho.. but when he know what he wants to say exactly hes great..

hop is a ring genius.he's a tad lame linguistically.
he sounds slow.
but he would be an upgrade from george foreman.and lennox is lame.
the guy was a great fighter but he sucks at broadcasting.
