    Roy Jones Jr. - Always talks about himself in the 3rd person (not lately, since he has been KOed)

    rest I'm cool with!
    I like Harold Lederman. What gets me is when he goes on too long and Lampley has to stop doing commentary for like 30 seconds.

            in order here (boxing wise):

            Al Bernstein (extremely knowledgable)
            Steve Farhood (see above comment)
            Lampley (same, a vet in sports commentating)
            Atlas (same)
            Steve Albert (but grandma, what white teeth you have!)
            Foreman (a good one, one of the best "boxer"-commentators)
            Merchant (you know... )
            Kellerman (not bad, very opinionated)

            i have little complaint with any boxing-commentators really

                my all time favorite team is Tim Ryan and Gil Clancy.

                my favorite right now is Barry Tompkins and Rich Marotta.


                I used to really like Alex Wallau as well.

                  Merchant and Lampley. Im not crazy about Joe Tessitore, his voice is kind of annoying.

                    I liked George Foreman the best, Lewis is a good commentator. Lampley and Merchant are good entertaining commentators in my opinion. I dont have anything against Teddy Atlas but he should be the back up guy not the main commentator for ESPN. I dont really like Jones as a commentator. Barry McGuigan is a good.

                      I liked Showtime's broadcasts alot better when that had Czyz. They should bring him back.
