    Absolutely. I think retired boxers should always be hired as commentators. My favorites are George Foreman, Roy Jones Jr., and Sugar Ray Leonard.
    Roy Jones is terrible. I sit listening intently to keep up with his motor mouth and when he's finished i'm like "what the **** did he just say" LOL

      Hopkins is garbage as a commentator.

      He should just do in studio analysis or something not play by play commentary. I remember when he did Showtime he was quiet for long periods of time lol it was funny. Usually he goes on and on for hours, but commentary he seems to be at a loss for words.

      I like Kevin Kelley as a commentator they need to bring him back.

            They should hire his daddy, Sir Joseph Calzaghe, to co-commentate so he'll be a little quieter.
            Agreed. Nice video reel in the sig.

              Malignaggi is one of the best commentators today.

              Anyone hear B-Hop say "it was a battle of nutrition" and "extablish."

                    Bernard obviously knows a thing or too about the sport of boxing, sometimes it looks like he gets a little full of himself. His monologues in his post fight interviews make him look like he's got a big ego. But I guess he's earned the right to talk like that. He's an ATG, in my mind atleast.
