That sucks. The guy is a good boxing broadcaster. He will be missed. Hope they hire somebody new who actually knows about boxing.

Brian Kenny left because he could not stand Teddy Atlas according to Joe.

BK is great! What a shame.

Looks like we're probably gonna get freaking Coach. Maybe we can get The Rock too, so there could at least be some entertainment value in the Friday Night Fights studio if there isn't gonna be any boxing knowledge.
