HBO needs to fire Lenox Lewis and hire this man.

It's always interesting to hear him speak.

lennox is useless. I'd rather they just point the camera at a balloon for 40seconds than listen to Lennox's pre-fight analysis. honestly, I don't think lennox even watches boxing outside of his HBO appearances. He spits out these random analyzations which makes me think that he gets all his info off of boxrec or something. he knows nothing past the records of the fighters. and he is also dumb as a door knob. and to think that he was actually considered a cerebral fighter and a chess master.

I'd take Hopkins in an instant. I've been enjoying his work on Friday Night Fights. Lewis makes no sense. If he wasn't able to say "Definitely, he needs to throw the jab, jab, jab, jab, jab. Ummm Definitely" then he'd be a mute. I'd love to see Roy Jones back on the team because he put the others in their place and his ability to predict outcomes was impressive.

That would be good.

problem with bernard hopkins is that he always likes to talk about himself, even if they are asking him about someone else or he is commentating on something totally irrelevant. he also doesn't know when to be quiet.. he would probably talk through the whole complete broadcast, wouldn't even stop for a pause. Would he be better than Lennox "definitely" Lewis?

Shannon Briggs is also pretty good. Not only does he know his stuff, but he is very articulate and funny as well.

Nah, doode, it has nothing to do with it.. I remember seeing a Gatti/Damgaard pic, Damgaards hands were huge compared to Gatti, Gatti TKOed the guy.. This was a old gatti too.. Thats just one example

Something about the fist size/power comment at the end of the video...wouldn't a bigger fist mean more mass? And if it was traveling at the same speed as a smaller fist wouldn't the bigger fist have more force behind it? :thinking: OR, is it that when it comes down to it, the fist size/difference in mass is negligible in practice?

RJJ > BHOP when it comes to commentating.

Hopkins should be there imo.

Bhop would make a great comentator.. I dunt think that the crew would like him so much tho (lamply, and larry) Lewis is utter garbage as a commentator.. excellent fighter, but shitty talker..

Hopkins, Tarver, Campbell are 3 of the best boxers at commentating They should just hire all three of them so they can fire most of there team.

I want to hear Don King doing the commentary.

helll yeaaa hopkins talks perfect!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not a big fan of Hopkins' style lately (except for his recent fights with Pavlik and Tarver), and I don't even like the guy himself much (I think he's borderline racist), but as for his ability to speak intelligently about the fight business, get his point across without sounding like an idiot, and be an asset to the show, hands down he has my vote. Plus, I just can't ****ing stand Lewis. Face it, he's great in the ring, but he's a FARKING MORON. I should add that I respect the hell out of anyone my age that can do what he's done. Whatever I may think of him as a person, the guy has my respect forever.

i don't see anything

Hopkins, Tarver, Campbell are 3 of the best boxers at commentating

he is very good for the sport he belongs on TV but Roy jones Jr should get the HBO spot he is an unforgetable character, he did great commentateing in his career. If Roy dont land on HBO hopkins No Question he is 100 times better than Lennox and emanuel at working the MIC... In my opinion

that's the best sig i've ever seen... lol...
