Foreman working HBO telecast!
Former two-time heavyweight champion George Foreman will rejoin Jim Lampley and Larry Merchant on tommorow night's HBO telecast of Samuel Peter vs Wladimir Klitschko and Miguel Cotto vs Ricardo Torres. Foreman abruptly left the HBO broadcast team in February 2004, saying he wanted to spend more time with his family. After 18 months away from the mic, "Big George" returned on August 13 of this year to provide ringside commentary on Don King's pay-per-view telecast of Rahman-Barrett at the United Center in Chicago. With Emanuel Steward working Klitschko's corner Saturday night and Roy Jones in training camp for his showdown with Antonio Tarver next week, HBO asked Foreman to help out this weekend and he accepted.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[RAESAAD]

I am happy about this he is very funny even though he usually does not mean to be but he is accurate and real...he will blatantly disagree with anyone of his side kicks...Lampley,Merchant and even Lederman if George don't agree with his scoring.Wrong he is sometimes but who is'nt and he has been in the ring in those situations so he knows best even more than Roy because he has far less ring experience then George and he does tend to lean toward certain guys more than George does he could care less about who wins as long as it is fairly judged and reffed.

I had wondered who they would get since Steward and Jones are busy.

Hm...not to shabby. I dont mind Foreman I like Jones alot more though I think he's smarter and more charismatic.

What Foreman will give you is an accurate insight of a boxer who is SLOW but extremely POWERFUL. I've heard him on the mic before and he's very opinionated. He tends to take sides but it's better than flatterer-wussies who says this and then says another.

All in all, a good boxing commentator.
