I honestly think that commentators makes the fight, game or match-up exciting/interesting. With all do respect to his greatness, John Madden sucks at commentating. He is boring. Commentators should make the games exciting. Marv Albert, Bob Costas, Greg Gumbel and more are very good at it. Especially Bob Costas, The best in every sport.
I like listening to Lampley. Especially with Merchant and leaderman with him. They are usually fair in all fights. Foreman favored alot of fighters. I noticed on alot of his commentating he would tend to favor one he liked. He did give us good advice on what gameplan a fighter should who was losing, but He favored too much. I don't think Larry Merchant liked him at all. but if I'm to pick Knowlege commentators, I'd have to go with Max kellerman, Teddy Atlas
I think Larry Merchant is good when it comes to scoring the bouts. At least in my point of view. He likes to give his score throughout the rounds and I usually have it the same as him.
