    Your favourite Boxing Commentators.

    Well theres a few and il name out most of them:
    The HBO Crew:
    Jim Lampley:Good commentator but can be annoying sometimes i.e **** **** ****
    Max Kellerman:Thinks everything he says is right, he is only good at doing kinda prefight stuff like finding out the backround of fighters, Okay commentator.
    Emmanuel Steward:I like Steward a lot, he can tell us things about fighters what they doing wrong, and he knows their strong points of their going into a fight, Good Commentator.
    Larry Merchant: Ledgend, nuff said
    Resigned Lennox Lewis: Sometimes went a bit off sometimes but he is good at saying like if a fighter is hurt and can say what he did when he was in similar position.
    The Recent Roy Jones Jnr:I liked him for Cotto vs Foreman, easy to listen to and knows what he is talking unlike Kellerman

    The Sky Sports Crew:
    Adam Smith:One of my favourites, i love the way when he lets outta roar when a big shot is hit, he is good for big punching fights cause he is dramatic somewhat, and easy to listen to.
    Ian Dark: Another quality similar to Smith but doesnt have the same passion as Smith does.
    Jim Watt:Good analyst of the sport, but he doesnt have great knowledge of the American boxing, but he knows his boxing in UK and Europe

    The Showtime Crew
    Gus Johnson:Probably one of my favorite commentators, i like him cause he is similar to Sky's Adam Smith
    Al Bernstein:I hate this guy he never shuts up, he acts like he is the blow by blow commentator, ugh i just dont like him one bit.
    Antonio Tarver:A much better version of Lennox Lewis he knows his stuff

          Roy is the man. Merchant is good and Tarver is okay too. Emmanuel Steward also use to have intersting points of view. Lampley is okay. I don't like Kellerman.

              I liked Sean O'Grady from USA Tuesday night fights....he was probably one of the most non-bias boxing broadcaster I can remember.

                RJJ and I think a lot of people will like Roy as he commentates more.
