GEORGE FOREMAN is the WORST commentator i have EVER heard

[Southpaw16]

Yeah, sure, Foreman is wrong sometimes when he is broadcasting. That is going to happen. Lennox Lewis is never wrong because he just stands there like a turnip and is completely unresponsive to everything.

Foreman is the only boxer-broadcaster who really seems to step forward and get involved in the broadcast. Even Roy Jones at times had to be coaxed into commentating by Lampley and Merchant. I think Foreman was really good. Overall he had very good technical insight and was a colourful talker.

Larry Merchant is the guy I would like to see them get rid of on that broadcast. He has obvious bitterness and disdain for the sport. Larry Merchant does not like any boxing match that isn't a slugfest. If a guy does not like boxing, then he should not be the BOXING broadcaster. He completely rips into and trashes fighters, referees, and coaches for no good reason at all.

I would also like to see Lennox Lewis out of there. He is obviously in the broadcast just because of his name. In his place I would like to see Antonio Tarver or Bernard Hopkins. Or Oscar De La Hoya if he would accept the job, just because De La Hoya means ratings even if he is just a broadcaster.

No way.

The worst I've seen/heard is Lewis.

worse then fran charles?

I like RJJ, foreman always seems biased towards one fighter

thoughts?

He destroys every fight he commentates for. God i hate that guy

He is shocking, he really doesnt like mayweather either, you should hear his commentating on the n'dou fight, honestly you would of thought n'dou was winning every round, foreman was calling for shots that were never landing.

Big george, stick to grilling vegetables, leave the boxing talk to someone else.

Youre right! Atleast he is graet boxer! So I don't give a ****!

[The Troll]

Peronally I think he's very enjoyable to listen to and is a much better commentator over all than everybody HBO has brought in since.

He's Big George.I dont give a ****. How many commentators can say they fought Ali and Frazier.

Just like I think!

[Nostromo]

That may be, but despite his imperfections, he comes across as an affable chap and doesn't deserve the scorn leveled at him here. He's no worse than Lewis, Leonard, Jones or any of the other ex-fighters they drag to the broadcast mike. Even Manny Steward has his shortcomings...

I couldn't agree more. So what if he's biased? Not only is it human to be biased, but color commentators need not be impartial, only the blow-by-blow guy (Lampley) need be balanced.
