    If ESPN is going to air more Boxing...

    I'm glad that we'll be getting more boxing ESPN and that they give us this extended post fight coverage but can we get some commentators that actually know boxing? IF not, just switch over to the post fight press conference. That would be something no other networks does and I know the fans would appreciate it.

    I'm surprised they couldn't have like Max Kellerman and Dan Rafael. They araen't like by a lot here but they're a ton better than SAS.

      I forgot how much Atlas talks. It takes getting used to.

      I will say that nothing compares to HBO and Showtime's production. ESPN looked so average in comparison

        Kellerman is probably under contract with HBO for boxing specific coverage. Only reason I can think of why he didn't cover this fight. Stephan A. Smith has no boxing knowledge. But then again, casuals probably can't tell the difference and Smith is mainstream.

          HBO's production is top notch. Too bad their business model, when it comes to boxing is crap these days.

                I'm gonna guess when Teddy Atlas take a piss, more boxing knowledge comes out in his stream than you'll ever possess.

                  Yeah. It's Funny watching Stephen A. go HAM, but when he or anyone else except Teddy talks boxing they know nothing.

                  Surprised fat Dan isn't more involved.

                    I really don't get where people get off saying SAS has no boxing knowledge. He never sounds uneducated or like an idiot whenever he talks about it to me.
