Roy Jones Jr Or Emanuel Steward?

Roy is too dumb to be a commentator.

Nice to see that Emmanuel voted for himself in the poll.

I hope HBO will fire Steward, he even don't see the punch landing. He saw Williams get knocked out by a right hand of Martinez http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTWylfLdCcc

For the most part boxers always make better commentators than analysts do. That's not to say all commentators should be ex-boxers, because many have tried it over the years and quite simply sucked at it, like Tyson and Foreman. However guys like Jones, Tarver, and Hopkins (on FNF) make excellent commentators and have much more depth to their comments than angry old men like Merchant and trainers who somehow always claim to have known the result was coming like Steward. George Foreman was hands down HBO's absolute worst commentator of all time, though. How the hell he managed to call (badly, at that) so many big fights is beyond me. He'd pretty much sh*t on anybody who wasn't a come forward brawler or a guy with a big punch.

one thing is for certain, HBO needs a change in their crew.

I do like Steward, but its always interesting listening to RJJ. I'd like to see him used more often.

Emanuel is good at knowing what's going on in the fight. Even as a trainer he can accurately tell his fighter if he won or lost a round. Roy is really good at knowing what a fighter is trying to do, what he's trying to setup, etc.

Roy Jones easy as long as he doesn't go along with an agenda and be biased

"I knew this was gonna happen....."

I prefer manny because he's really reserved and only points out the important things going on rather than babbling on and on

I thought Emanuel would do better.

Roy Jones. Most definitely.

This thread is going exactly as I predicted. Roy and it isn't close, Steward is pretty horrible to be honest.

Manny's ok, but not as good as he used to be and besides that if RJJ get's the gig full time maybe he'll be able to afford to retire from the ring.

roy's great.... always optimistic about boxing and helps put you in the shoes of the fighters

Roy clearly, no debating.

there's no question, imo steward is just as bad as merchant and lederman.
