Anyone know the story behind him leaving in the first place?
Did he want too much money or did that geezer Larry have him fired?
Nah, his schedule was so overloaded with him commentating and promoting his grill at the time. He also wasn't seeing his family much. That's why he left HBO.
George is better than anyone else I can think of for the job. I also enjoyed listening to Roy, I wish Roy would take the job so he wont keep getting himself beat up.

Foreman was funny ....he was completely biased in a lot of cases and he would argue **** that wasn't even close to true, but it was comical. Like someone mentioned, the Hopkins/Trinidad fight is a good example.
Foreman always seemed to me to be consciously acting to the cameras. I particularly recall a Klitschko fight, when Larry Merchant uttered his most famous "saying"........"He's so perfect, I wonder what's wrong with him'...... And I think that in Foreman's blurb he looked at the camera with that round-eyed ingenuous stare, talking about Klitschko, and saying "well, he's big enough".
As if this was his expert opinion of Klitschko's worth and expertise. This was equally as ****** as anything Lennox Lewis had ever said, and believe me, he'd said plenty!!
