Lennox Lewis is the worst commentator

I thought it was going to be a good change having lewis as a commentator but it sounded like a computer or a robot talking, no tention or emotion in his commentating, just a lowpitch voice with some juvenile soundeffects, "ooh, aah". also giving no special insight to the fight, "zihouski has a different style" when lampley asked him how is it different, he said "I don't know, it is just different" amd his punchlines were so cheesy they made me laugh. "Zilhouski has punisher written on his trunks but he got punished".

He's doing good IMO!

Yeah I think he's doing okay.
This is comming from a former LL hater.

No kidding, you can't understand him. :)

I agree. He's horrible. Where the heck are Manny Steward, Roy Jones, Max Kellerman, James Brown, or anyone else with a pulse. Sheesh!

believe it or not... he has the most experience out of every one there. I give him props not only did he make me laugh, he was the only one there givin gout true boxing insight.

Why would anyone think that a fighter with a charisma bypass would be a good commentator?

Lennox is a garbage commentator. He was horrible IMO, I actually missed Steward. The tandem of Lewis and Merchant is the equivalent of drinking an entire bottle of Nyquil.

His American/English accents blending together alone made ma laff at him LOL.

it is called colour commentary, and lewis wasn't the most colourful fighter, the color and charisma is what distinguishes between a good commentator from a bad one, if not anyone could have been a commentator

I HATE LENNOX, but i thought he did OK last night, through the whole chavez fight i was angry he was there, by the middle of the second fight i was ok with it

This cant be said enough. That fight should have been Lennox' first and last as a commentator. Holy Cow was he tough to listen to all night.

Lennox did commentary for Roy jones against John Ruiz too. And got the immortal catchphrase "Jones looked John Ruiz in the eyes and said "I'll be back." "
