Is Bob Papa the glue keeping BAD together ? without him i shudder to think how bad the telecasts would be.
Its a hand my the nearest bucket to throw up in time when they give Max Kellerman a chance to make his own little promo about up and coming prospects. You have Lennox babbling out about, what? nothing!
Bob Papa is the only one that seems to make the telecast enjoyable from my perspective. He knows how to broadcast and makes solid points and the right times, he does not get flustered like Lennox or overdo it with the superlatives (Kellerman)
LOL. I actually find Lennox very likeable. Yes, he's not that good of a commenator but I always like to hear an athlete's prospective, especially if he was once the top of his trade. Papa is not bad. He's very laid back . I think Kellerman (who is very high strung) and Papa sorta balance each other out. The team is itself is pretty decent. They are a whole lot entertaining than the Showtime team, who I find to be a snore.
I was about to say the same thing.
He revived his career with his Paulie Magilnano line and he already is well known for saying "definitely". Lewis is a cult hero for HBO, he's the secret comedian.
LMAO.
:rofl:
I remember that shit.

Bob papa has been hit or miss for me. Sometimes he's pretty good, like last telecast, but there are some instances where he can be just as bad (when in Berto-Collazo, he kept saying Berto went down, but he never did).
I like Max Kellerman and thought the prospects schpell was good. Was informative to the casuals.
I dunno about the rest of you, but I like that he makes an effort to get Lennox involved instead of just letting him sit there quietly. You never know what new gems will come out of it. Whether you like Lennox or not, Bob Papa does a good job with what he has at his disposal.
Bob Papa is a ****!n& prick who knows little about boxing. The OP of this thread has to be either Bob or a relative.
PS. If its you Bob stick to that Hockey $h!t.
No, I think Bob is just doing it because it's all he's hired for at the moment. To me, he wouldn't care if he was commentating boxing or MMA. I think Max Kellerman who I know gets a lot of hate, is the only one that shows true passion for the sport. Lennox has got to get fired ASAP. That guy makes my ears bleed he's so bad. I'm working on my remote timing skills for the MUTE button.
co sign bob pappa has broadcasted football hockey and boxing this is his job and he is a profesional but he doesnt have the same passion for boxing that a guy like kellerman has even though max can be annoying as shit sometimes you know he truly follows and loves the sport

Bob Papa has been presenting Boxing telecast for quite a while. I have fights from back when Tarver fought Reggie Johnson where he is the announcer.
that doesnt change the fact that he isnt a boxing guy first more of a jack of all trades he is first and foremost a football guy and it comes off like that to me im not saying he is a bad announcer just not a great boxing announcer
i actually dont like bob pappa at all he doesnt seem to be a boxing guy more of a proffesional announcer who is not bad but not on the level of jim lampley emanuel steward ect guys who truly follow and love the sport
