      Yeah I take your point, they are the analysts/experts and it happens in all sports, it's just a personal opinion.

I guess some will worship any thing he says because of his achievements in the past but I find both irritating. I like the other HBO guys, they're good.
              Because you always have to talk to ****** people like they're children. Jones knows more about what goes on in the ring than lampley, kellerman, lederman, and merchant. Why do you think espn hires so many former professional athletes for their shows. Roy Jones, George Foreman, Lennox Lewis, and Emmanuel Steward they all have to talk to them like they are children sometimes. If I have been doing something my whole life do you actually think someone who has never done it is gone know more about it than me?

                  Roy left his prime as a boxer, he's now a prime commentator. He's the GOAT in Boxing in general.

                      It was refreshing hearing Roy commentate.

                      He was a very intelligent fighter; which shows when he commentates because he points out things that I'd bet the majority did not notice or know.
