    Hopkins commentating on hbo?

    So is Hopkins going to be the new commentator on hbo? He does a great job, better then Jones whos always trying to point out how great he is.

      It's not a permanent gig, HBO will rotate guys like Hopkins, Ward, etc.

          He's alright. A bit dull compared to Roy but so far he hasn't pissed me off. I'm surprised he's been so succinct. He's the most long winded and self-indulgent **** in boxing. They must've really trained him to tone it down.

              His quote about Provo's heart keeping him in the fight but his face probably won't...was quote of the night imo...he's still green but he's already better than Tarver...not quite Paulie or Roy but he's better than the others including Ward....Lennox Lewis was the worst ever though!!

                He is way better than Ward. I mean way better. He seems natural at it like Roy is.

                  I didn't think either commentary team was good at the weekend, wrong mix.

                    Are you guys being sarcastic? Because all I've read about his performance is that it was bad...very bad. Personally I thought he was awful...stuttering, hesitating and saying "you know" dozens of times. Seems he had thoughts that he couldn't get from his brain to his mouth.

                    He has only done this kind of work a few times so I can give him a break for a while.

                    But his performance last night was a D bordering on an F.
