Who is the best Boxing commentator of all times?

[Willy Wanker]

lots of these guys weren't watching boxing in larry's prime and only consider what he did late in his career when he became out of touch and was in his f#cking 80's. at his best the guy was poignant, insightful, funny, and a charmer.

Even at Merchant's worst, he was still funny and entertaining for a cynical old man. I think he might have been sipping on some bourbon in between rounds though.

I watched him since I was young kid. He was great in the late 80s throughout the 90s.

He always spoke from the heart and he would always tell it like it is for the most part. His post fight monologues at the end of the night were always on point, even when he was way past his prime.

Gutteridge? i'm not sure if it's him, but I think there was another great named Tom Dumphy. Hey Ray Corso...correct me if i'm wrong.

Gutteridge from England and the ITV broadcasts would've been nothing without him. Did a lot of Olympic broadcasts too. Famously interviewed Ali mid fight lol Absolute legend.

I personally like commentators that stick more to blow by blow commentating. I don't like when they over-analyze, because sometimes as they are over-analyzing the other guy tends to be landing some good shots & there still talking about how good the other guy is ....

Jim Watt is great

Soul,
I've been very impressed with the British commentating, they stick to more of what's going on & are least biased

Larry "Vodka Breath " Merchant !


Who was the best ? Al Bernstein calls the actual fights better with more accurate detailing.

I have to go with Howard Cosell

[Squ□redCircle34]

Cosell and is not even close IMO!

The best right now is some of the UK broadcasters who aren't bias like most and Roy Jones due to him calling it how it is and seeing things that most armchair commentators cant cuz he's a fighter!

Its Paulie Malignaggi right now with Roy Jones Jr. & Andre Ward is coming. Emanuel Stewart was good too.

Larry Merchant is the best color commentator (boxing analyst or whatever his title was) of all-time.

The thread is the best not the worst.....matter of fact jim lampely is worse.
