    The inconsistancy has nothing to do with Grey, only Merchant.

          Examples? Not color commentating. But, interviews since that's the only thing Jim Grey can actually do.

            Yet he's very consistant doing just that. That's why he's bossing the polls!!

              No examples right? Yea that's what I thought.

              And, LOL @ "bossing the polls" yes because we know how credible polls on boxincene are.

                I don't think Bernstein and Farhood are too great. They say some outlandish things at times.

                Tarver seems pretty good most of the time though.

                Admittedly, I haven't seen much of them.

                That Gus guy is terrible Reminds me a bit of Duke McKenzie was 100x more energy and intensity.

                Then again Duke's not that bad.

                    What about Kellerman with Mayweather or Marquez?

                    Even Emmanuel "I knew this was gonna happen" Steward is partial to certain fighters.
                    No doubt.

                    Emmauel "I knew was gonna happen" Steward I think he may be the worst commentator of the lot of them. Including Lampley.

                      Tarver is really good IMO.

                      HBO overall gets annoying.

                      Not familiar with Duke McKenzie.
