Not sure. But he's definitely better than those boring British announcers.
Don't rate the Brit announcers either really.
But I'd rather listen to them than "OH MA GAAAD! THEY'RE GONNA STAAAAAP IT! TAVORIS CLOUD GETS THE KNOCKOUT OVER CAMPILLO. THEY'VE STAPPPPEDD ITT!!"
He actually didn't yell that much, but he did go crazy in the 9th round. I can't believe people don't like him, I guess some of these guys don't watch the british commentary, it's a snooze fest.
It confuses me when some one wants to see Lampley from HBO or Gus from Sho leave. To me they're the voice of the crew, the other guys are the brains. You need a voice and a brain. These guys are exciting to hear. I mean when one of your comments make it as one of the fights highlights, then you did a good job.
I have heard Gus commentate for MMA as well, I like him. He's like the Jim Lampley of Showtime when it comes to bringing excitement to a fight.
I especially like hearing him in Andre Ward fights.
Why? Because he reaches the point of orgasm whenever Ward throws a punch?

Yeah thats why . I made a thread about Johnson being a bum announcer like a year ago.
And its been almost a year since Salido first KO'd Juanma
Coincidence? hmmmm ;)
he's doing play by play, does it really matter? The guys who know boxing are always asked questions by Gus all fight long, which is how it should be.
I dont need a boxing historian to do the play by play but I would like someone who knows who and what he is watching and doesn't aggrevate the hell out of me for the entire fight. Its all a opinion here and imo he sucks donkey ****.
I think he holds a grudge against him because most of the time he's yelling about how Juanma's hurt :lol1:
"Juanma's on queer street!!!!"

Call me crazy but I like all the guys on a boxing broadcast team to be boxing guys. Farhood,Tarver, and Bernstein all do a great job imo and Johnson brings nothing to the table but annoying yelling and weak commentary.

Why does he need to know anything about boxing, Tarver and Al are the analyst not him. The guy does about 6 different sports and manages to do a decent job in each including.
Yes exactly
People dont know his role in the broadcast, he's there to get you hyped and he does a decent job. Can you imagine like 3 Tarver type guys or Roy jones or Manny Steward debating the fundamentals of the sport for 2 hours? You'd fall asleep.

Truth. He knows nothing about boxing. He's a mascot not an announcer.
I thought you said you were done here? or is someone else trolling in your account.
Johnson is an awesome boxing commentator. He brings excitement to the broadcast.
How so? He does a decent job. Imo
lol no. The dude is an annoying bum announcer who knows **** about boxing.
I like Gus Johnson and the whole Showtime crew. They all bring something to the table and are very insightful. They call the fight the way that it is going. HBO Commentators are starting to fall off. Jim Lampley used to be my favorite, but now he is too biased. Even Manny Steward seems to be biased towards certain fighters. The only 2 I like now is Max Kellerman and Roy Jones. They call it like they see it.
