    how is it physically possible that you think Sheridan is one of the worst commentators of all time?

      the Col. is way too biased and way too much of a King lackey to be considered the best at anything (except perhaps the best King lackey), but no question that his enthusiasm and love for the game is second to none.

        Compare this:


        Sheridan: "UNBELIEVABLE UNBELIEVABLE UNBELIEVABLE BUSTER DOUGLAS IS THE NEW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!"


        Lampley: "...Mike Tyson has been knocked out..."

        Sheridan is good and he brings the hype and excitement alright but it just doesn't sound right when he is trying to hype up a dull fight.

          ....man, Sheridan is the by far the best.

          and Ive never heard Sheridan be that biased...but even if he is, everyone is biased. Ive heard tons of people ***** about Lampley as 'biased' and making lousy calls and all.

          he didnt sound too biased when Douglas was beating Don King's fighter Tyson up in that clip, and he had Douglas ahead and all(some dumbass judge had him up or something...). unless Douglas was also signed with Don King, but I dont think so...dunno tho

          actually, imagine if Merchant and Sheridan teamed up...they would make the perfect mix, theyre opposite, it would be great! haha

            I'm just wondering do Lampley and Sheridan commentate on the same fights??I mean do they commentate for 2 different stations simultaneously?

              Sheridan does the commentary for Don King events. His job is to hype up bad fights so that the audience is fooled into believing they are quality events.

              Bob Sheridan should be announcing wrestling or monster trucks.

                well in that case, bring back the don king events, because nobody calls fights the way sheridan does!he is the voice.!

                  his voice is unique, and calling a fight is not the same without him...
                  has done thousands of fights, and he is no1 for me.
                  I guess he's past his prime a little, but he's still my favourite.

                  Look at how amazingly accurate his commentary is for The Rumble in the Jungle.

                  He witters on sometimes these days, but I love his enthusiasm that the HBO team don't have.

                  After Haye KO'd Mormeck: "OH BOY! He really BLASTED him!!!"

                      i agree with this post. He barley calls the fights if you actually listen to what he is saying. He's terrible.
