good god. Roach would be horrible. I'd pick Mario Lopez over him, and thats saying something.

One good thing though would be if you didnt like Roach's analysis during a particular fight, just wait a round or 2. He'll end up saying the complete opposite. lol

Get ****in Kat Williams or some ****. Someone that will attract young viewers.

Jesus Christ, he's the last person I want to listen to. Although it would be interesting for him to call fights of where the fighter in the ring fights in and around Khan and Pacquiao's division so he'll have to admit they are a threat to his guys.

Is HBO that desperate at least go get a minority to balance off Lampley the miser and the old fart. I would suggest George Foreman or Roy Jones Jr. Unfortuantely, they can't get Tarver because he is doing one heck of a job with Showtime. Please HBO use the little sense y'all have left.

Great pick.

A biased man that barely can be understood because of his illness.

I don't see the big deal man Roach is articulate enough. No Lennox Lewis but more than Emmanuel Steward IMO.

Yes you take that clip and then you compare it to the countless other times he is just stuttering.
I have sympathy for him being ill, but that doesnt make him a good pick for this job.

Surely there must be a better fit?
