    As Mick said, he seems to be on that path.

    But I dont think I could ever enjoy listening to Hopkins. I dont think boxers make good commentators in general. Foreman was the archetype boxing commentator. So bad. Jones Jr was okay in spots but didnt grow.

    In response to Taeth, I find Kellerman pretty lame. He seems like an over enthusiastic schoolboy all too often. Now, Larry Merchant is cool. Has a really good boxing brain on him and would doubtlessly look stupid laced up. As any good commentator should. Boxing will be a lesser thing without him.

    I think one of the best guest analysts they had on was Nate Campbell. He really knows his game and seems like a really genuine guy. Foreman was good.
    I think all boxers show that side of "this is how I would do it" when they see a fight in front of them. I get so bored listening to Lennox "he needs to work the jab" "if he would pump his left hand out there he could keep the guy still" ALWAYS harping on the damn jab. I mean, I get it. You made a career out of a beautiful jab, but not everyone has your physique!
    "Floyd needs to inject Xylocaine into his balls to gain the courage to fight Pacquiao."

    - and I quote from some random guy on the internet
