[JakeNDaBox]

NBC Sports Group announced on Tuesday morning the addition of Laila Ali, B.J. Flores, Kenny Rice and Chris Mannix to its Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) coverage on NBC and NBCSN.

Three-time super middleweight champion Ali and former two-time U.S. amateur heavyweight champion Flores will serve as corner analysts for PBC on NBC telecasts. Mannix and Rice will report ringside, and Rice will conduct interviews. Rice will also serve as the blow-by-blow announcer on select NBCSN shows.

The debut of PBC on NBC live in primetime on Saturday, March 7 at 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC features a pair of blockbuster bouts — Keith Thurman vs. Robert Guerrero, and Adrien Broner vs. John Molina Jr. — from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Blow-by-blow announcer Marv Albert and analyst “Sugar” Ray Leonard call the action. Al Michaels will host.

Lol I dont really see the point of having that many people

I like that Leonard's involved. Would love to hear his commentary on many of the fights. Good to see the legends of the sport get work and reach a new audience. If PBS and Floyd-Manny live up to the hype, we may have a revival of kids choosing boxing over other sports. Fingers crossed gents!

I really wish someone would give Kevin Kelley another chance. He offers some of the most interesting perspectives on the sport in my opinion.

[PunchyPotorff]

Kenny Rice and 'Basic' BJ Flores weakest links on there, but even so, some good talent behind the mic.

Decent Team! Can't believe it took this long for someone to include Laila Ali in their Boxing Coverage
