    I like Paulie. Think the dude is spot on from watching him with Showtime.

    I didn't used to mind Kellermen but listening to him during the Guerrero - Berto fight really pissed me off.

    I'm not the biggest fan of Roy Jones. He does have some decent moments but I think he's **** average.

    I wouldn't mind seeing somone like B-Hop or Foreman.

    **** it bring in Joey Stylez or Good ol JR

      Mike Tyson would be great.

      I would have thought he was too big of a name to be a boxing commentator, but if Roy Jones does it, why not?

                They should get a couple of tossers who get really excited about two guys lying on top of each other and then one of them screams " IT'S ALL OVER" every time a fight ends, no matter how boring it is.

                  yes he was **** commentating on that fight

                  Need someone who is not scared to tell the truth and usually gets it right.

                  Wayne McCullough knows his onions and tells it how it is, although I'm not sure he has the voice for it.

                    He was one of the biggest attractions in boxing history. I'm sure he could attract a few more, as a commentator.

                    He's well spoken and excellent at noticing the little things.

                    Massive, massive ego though.
                    I agree, he's articulate, well spoken, and knows his stuff, but can you blame him though? The man aguably beat 2 or 3 ATG's of his era.

                    I only see him bringing in older people though more than anything.

                      Max Kellerman's bias is sickening. They should get rid of him, but they never will.

                      They should hire a Hispanic commentator. That community gives us a lot of great fights but is under-represented in the boxing media.
