    Jones hands down, it's a rarity to have a master boxer who can comment on the fights the way he does.

    Same thing as having Sugar Ray Robinson commentating

    BAH! George Foreman was the man, he knew his shit too...boxing is physical ability, commentating is the mental approach to boxing. Both guys were just natrually gifted though

    Foreman knew crap about boxing compared to Roy Jones... he said alot of dumb things, and he made alot of comments that back fired as a fight went on.

    Forman was entertaining and insightful, Jones just comes off sounding slow.

    You've got to be kidding the me... how was Foreman insightful? Roy came off as somebody who knew boxing, and Foreman didn't... just like when he fought Ali.

    Foreman knows how heavyweights fight and he just did a better job than Roy. RJ was good for self promotion

    George dosen't know that much about boxing, he just relied on power when he was younger and added abit of skill when he was older.

    Not at all I couldn't agree with 90% of the stuff he said... either could the fighters apparently because they never did what he said they were going to do.

    Jones easily was the better one. Anybody who said Foreman was, is either stupid or in serious need of some attention.

    It really depends on what you look for, Opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one. Go Foreman.
