    Comments Thread For: PBC on NBC: Kenny Albert Will Be Blow By Blow Man

    STAMFORD, Conn. - Kenny Albert, one of the most versatile broadcasters in sports, will serve as blow-by-blow announcer for select Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) shows on NBCSN, it was announced today. Albert will be joined by six-time world champion, 1976 Olympic gold medalist and analyst “Sugar” Ray Leonard to call PBC on NBC fight shows on NBCSN. Show dates and times on NBCSN will be announced in the coming weeks.

    Kenny Albert, the only national play-by-play broadcaster who calls football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and soon, boxing, joins his father, Marv Albert, in calling PBC bouts. Marv Albert was announced last week as blow-by-blow announcer for the 11 NBC shows.

      Comments Thread For: Kenny Albert To Call PBC Events on NBC Sports Network

      Truly following in the footsteps of his father, Kenny Albert has become the latest to join the Premier Boxing Champions family.

      The second-generation announcer has been tabbed to man the ringside broadcast teams for all future PBC events to air on NBC Sports Network. The news was announced Wednesday morning through a statement by NBC Sports Group.

      Albert joins his father, world-famous Marv Albert as broadcasters for PBC events. Marv will serve as the lead commentator for all shows airing live on NBC's flagship station. Kenny Albert heads the NBCSN panel, joined by Hall of Fame boxing legend 'Sugar' Ray Leonard.

      “I am extremely fortunate to call games in the four major professional sports, and look forward to adding boxing to my lineup!” Albert said in a press statement. “I'm thrilled to share a ringside seat with one of the greatest boxers of all-time.”

                          I've always liked Steve Albert, but never heard his relatives. Are they any good?

                                  I've never heard Kenny. I know Marv is good and Steve was okay.
