    Nope, job of a commentator is to be well educated on the world boxing scene, be unbiased, and make constructive compliments and criticisms. None of those are attributes of Hopkins.

      As a Hopkins fan, personally I'd love it. He'd be very insightful as well as funny, I think.

          you don't think hopkins has great boxing knowledge and would offer good insight?

          certainly he'd be better then Lennox "definitely the man who punches more punches will win the fight" Lewis

            I dont think HBO would want that.

            Basicly Hopkins sometimes likes to talk about politics so he could embarrass HBO with couple of his comments

              I agree. George Foreman is the ****. B-Hop would be good too.

                Bernard Hopkins is a student of boxing and a great analyst. However, I suspect his ego would get in the way. A man who is full of himself can never be a good color commentator.

                  You don't think Lennox has an ego? How about George? Maybe RJJ?

                    Even Jim and Steward have ego's. All of them do, it's pretty natural for commentators to have big ego's.

                      I think Hopkins will fail the interview.
                      Lennox is fair IMO
                      George is ok. I heard him pick sides in one fight kinda but that was the only time.
                      Emanuel sucks!
