Comments Thread For: Stephen A. Smith Nervous As Hell' About Calling Pacquiao-Vargas

[New England]

bad fight, bad broadcaster [kenny is the real deal, stephen A is a joke,] but i like what i'm hearing. this is the correct approach.

you should be nervous and feel out of your league. you are out of your league. put in the work and approach it humbly. you are out of your league and have no business calling a boxing match. y ou should be nervous.

Hol up..."Black Howard Cosell"??

I'm sorry, but I have never in my life heard something so disrespectful in my life.

Howard Cosell was THE voice of boxing on the radio. Period. He was one of the best speakers I've heard in my life and he brought you into the fight like nobody has since, not even Lampley who tries hard.

I'm fine with current and former boxers doing ringside, but this guy? Has no business there. If I hear him call a jab a power punch, I will cut the broadcast off.

brian kenny is doing the blow by blow, and he's got a lot of experience backing up joe tessitore and hostong FNF. he's got blow by blow experience, and he's a class guy. stephen A will be in as an "expert [lol] / color commentator." he's there to provide perspective. i expect kenny to be able to carry the rest of these guys. he's a professional and he's got experience broadcasting boxing.

Skip made you and your hairline famous boy cut that out.

You and Kellerman suck I don't even watch FirstTake anymore.

Stop listening to Max you should stay in your element.

What an awful fight.

Yikes! I guess the worst fight of the year deserves the worst broadcasting team. Unless you're from the Philippines or you're an arseh*le, you hate this fight.
