I bet you Rome knows more about boxing than 95% of the people on this website. You guys really don't know who Rome is, if you think he is an ESPN guy. The dudes been doing sports talk for over two decades, his ESPN gig is nothing.Comment

Exactly! These people think Rome is an ESPN guy lol. This guy has been hardcore boxing for a longgggg time. Longer than they have been alive.Comment

Jim Rome is def one of the legit boxing guys on ESPN. I resepct him greatly. I'm sure he's just throwing a tantrum here, something he's prone to doing. Can't fault him. With that said, if Floyd/Pac isn't gonna happen then I wanna see both of them in the ring with legit fighters. This is a legit fight.Comment

lol at the Fans that NEED to hear other peoples opinion to help influence their opinion hahaha
So I shouldn't order this fight because Jim Rome won't order it?
AND NO...Rome don't HATE Mayweather and no he is NOT A "*******" he is a guy that still does gives his HONEST OPINIONComment

yeah funny part was that rome told camacho in person i like you as a person and all but i gotta call it the way i see it.. good luck lol. he said camacho was more intersted in making out with some chic he brought up to the station with him, thought they were about to have sex there right on the spot...
but yes he was a big time fan.. he did interviews with sweet p, terrible terry, bowe, holyfield and just recently for the first time mike tysonComment

This is the year 2011, in 2011 he has proven many times along with many on ESPN that he has no real deep insight about the currant boxing world. What he knew in the 90's holds no bearing on what he knows on currant boxing.Comment

I don't know what he was, but he certainly isn't a 'hardcore boxing'...not for the past 5 years at least since I heard of him here in Canada.
He interviews some boxers infrequently, big whup. He also jumped on the boxing is dying bandwagon which is just as bad as any of the talking heads on ESPN.
He also loves the UFC, which is fine (they sponsor his show so no surprise), but this dude 5 years ago was calling for MMA to be banned. Typical loud mouth sports 'personality'.Comment
