Anyone else like Tarver as an announcer?

Tarver is excellent, it was always going to be a guy like that (brash, a shit-talker) who was going to make the best commentator because they've been practicing their whole career. Mark my words, it will be the likes of Campbell, Mayweather & Haye who make excellent announcers once their careers are done. Allegedly, the HBO announcing job was between Lennox & Michael Bennt, but they decided to go with Lennox even though Bennt was miles better because he was the big-name fighter & audiences might not know who Bennt was :-\

This is similar to Johnny Nelson who was shite to watch but a very good commentator.
