    I wont miss their voices. Roy Jones and Andre Ward were good to listen to. Kellerman, Lampley, & Lederman made people believe their bias opinions to be true.

          Roy's expert knowledge and oberservations will be greatly missed and Max is not so bad.

          Toolbag hacks Lampley and Lederman can eat a d*ck.

            HBO were led by a team of White Supremacists in Lampley, Merchant and Lederman.

            Old white men who oppressed their black ****** in Ward and RJJ.

            I won't miss them at all. We need more guys like Stephen A Smith, who are the true oracle of the sweet science and slippery slickness.

              Don't give a sh_t about Jim Lampley...WAS ONCE a great Play by Play announcer but just couldn't control his emotions and he got way too emotionally attached to certain fighters and certain fighting styles that it effected the way he called fights. He would go as far as only calling the fight for the fight he likes while completely ignoring and at times not even calling what the other fighter lands



              Good Riddance! Lederman the same, the way he scored fights was based on who he liked

                  I will miss Lampley. Still thought he was better then most, and in his prime was amazing. Emmanuel Steward was an underrated gemstone.

                  I will also miss the perfect theme song and the truck.......

                    "This fight is going exactly how I thought it would." After saying and predicting the opposite lol... that is how I remember Emanuel Steward's commentary.

                      I think Jim Lampley was/is ace, the man really loves his boxing. The racist claims are tiresome to keep reading. Like gossiping girls in a playground, ffs. Maybe he wasn't everyones favorite but jesus there's no need for the hate. Silly.
