    Gus Johnson is good. He is very excitable. One of my favorite nfl play by play guys

        Gus Johnson is great to have as a commentator. He is very exciting and he is my favorite guy to do a texan football game.

        Only pet peeve is that i am pretty positive he likes mma more or that he dosent like boxing much at all this is only for money

          Hopefully that translates well to boxing. I'm not familiar with him, even though I watch a lot of NFL.

              **** GUS JOHNSON.He dissed the hell out of boxing when he did the kimbo fight. He said something like "this is all action folks this isn't like boxing" Why is he doing boxing? Bet he doesn't know anything about the sport

                I remember that.

                It was like "fans are booing this is mma not boxing"

                I think he was just paid to hype the hell out of mma since it was on network tv.

                    ^^I mean he just took a shot at boxing for no reason. I don't think he loves the sport like a lampley or max u can feel how much they love the sport

                      Albert is OK, I never really liked the Showtime commentary team so maybe I'll like his replacement more although it doesn't seem like Gus Johnson has much experience calling boxing.
