    Why did they fire Lennox Lewis? But he was quite boring commentator, compared to Steward, Foreman and RJJ.

      I trust Chris to be faithful to the Knightfall version of Bane.

      Basically anything but the Batman and Robin Bane would be better.

      Huge fan of its always Sunny. Me and my girlfriend have memorized every line of the The Nightman Cometh.

      RJ returning is just good for boxing.
      I was not expecting Bane at all, I thought he'd be penguin or riddler. But I'm excited to see Nolan's version of Bane and I'm assuming/hoping there would be no CG, prostethics, since Nolan is not a big fan of CG. A buffer Tom Hardy should make it more realistic and fit in with Nolan's universe, can't fuckin' wait! (My storyline theory is that bane would be Bruce's apprentice who later on turn back on him after he takes advantage/addicted to the superhuman serum that Lucious Fox develops, and Fox will be killed and same with Alfred - so kinda mixing Azrael with Bane storyline into one)

          Sounds good.

          That's a fascinating story. I was hoping they might bring in Jean Paul Valley into the mix, but that might be difficult. Your story would work real well.

          If your trying to envision a bigger Hardy check out this pic.

                      Good news.

                      It would be better if he actually replaced Kellerman, who is an unnecessary expense for HBO and hurts their ratings.

                      Bob Papa and Roy Jones would be an excellent two man team.
