      Let the fans decide what's happening and who has insight instead of just three lemmings who copy each other verbatim.
      You realize you just described why judges have different score cards and how one can see a fight completely different from another?

        When there is a fight I am genuinely excited in watching I rarely pay attention to what anyone on tv is saying. I can hardly hear what my family in the back ground arguing are saying. I was the same way when I would spar or fight. I would tune everything out and focus on the person in front of me. That said, on fights where I am not looking at it from a trainers eye I do not mind hearing what others opinions are. I like Ward and he seems to get it right more than not. The big plus is that his voice is not annoying like Bradley or Paulie.

            Big ups to our last male gold medalists

            Andre is pretty good as an analyst and on point with how he say things and Breaking down fighters, much better than many of the other fighters, although Tarver was good too! Lennox has to be the worst, followed by Big George and then there’s a few trainers out there whom has done well also. Timothy Bradley get caught up in self and debate a bit to much for my liking but someone like him.

              Yeah he was terrible and clearly bias. Even worse than Timmy saying “Marirez” all night.
              Bradley at least called it down the middle.

                Says a lot of dumb things.

                Can't pronounce names.

                He's pessimistic a lot of the time, he's trying too hard to be like his old trainer Atlas.

                I just don't care for the guy.

                I think Kelly Pavlik would do a really good job.

                    Forget this bum. You gotta re-up with Timmy. The guy is hilarious and always out boring ward in check.
