Re: Most Dramatic Commentating Moment..
Sadly to say, "DOWN GOES JONES ON A HUGE LEFT HAND"
I was too intoxicated to remember the moment fully, but the way Lampley said that has stuck with me :(
Re: Most Dramatic Commentating Moment..
You dream about fights like this but very seldom do they live up to expectation
Emanuel Steward Gatti vs Ward 1
The whole 15th round of Holmes vs Norton 1978
Howard Cosell
Re: Most Dramatic Commentating Moment..
I think that it has to be ODLH vs Vargas when ODLH had him pinned in the corner going wild on him, Lampley was absolutely bananas. Damnit, I know he's corny but Lampley will always be #1 on my list. I still remember almost breaking down into tears from laughter when Lampley said "Rahman is solid as a rock, and Toney is fat tub of goo." Hahahahahahahahahahaha.

Your right that was a classic, Man I miss George doing the commentary I loved it when he called Larry on his Bullshit remarks!! :coolclick:
CC back. They need to find someone else that can call Larry on his bullshit. Roy Jones, Emmanulle Steward, James Brown, etc have not done it. They need to bring Lennox Lewis in it, he can talk all night long.
Roy did it to Larry during the Morales Pacquiao fight ;)
Re: Most Dramatic Commentating Moment..
Mr. Wacko's live coverage here of a boxing event. It gave me a different kind of thrill that I've never tasted before. And the enthusiastic reactions of some of the members here who didn't have the live coverage of the event on their tv screens in their areas added to the excitement.
Re: Most Dramatic Commentating Moment..
Not dramatic but Barry McGuigans commentary of Benn Eubank 1 is one I always remember.
"I hate to say I told you so......But I said it would be a late rounds stoppage for Eubank..........And Im right"
;D

Yup.....
For me it's
Cosells 'Down goes Fraiza'
and Lampleys 'I don't belive it, IT HAPPEND! IT HAPPEND! ' Lampley cried and actaully gets teary eyed during the Legendary Nights of Boxing of Foreman-Moorer interview that he did.
