Lennox Lewis as a commentator - what's ths issue ??

[Kev]

My biggest problem is he is robotic. I can't think of any broadcaster or sportsperson who is less of a natural at commentating than him.

When any other boxer or sportsman for that matter gets interviewed by their anchor man pre fight or pre sporting event they will talk to the guy asking them the question and sound natural like they having a conversation.

Lennox on the other hand stares straight at the camera and reads an autoqueue.

To my knowledge he's the only boxer commentator who does that.

Lennox is kinda dull 'tis true, and I don't think that London/American accent helps much, pronounciations are a bit all over the place.

But I have to say, another boxer who tried some commentating or "punditing" if you will, who bored the crap out of me with his monotone voice and total lack of charisma was John Thaxton a little while back on ITV, might have been the night of Fury vs Peret or something.

I'd have to say he's just boring and pretty full of himself.

George Foreman was A LOT better.

George liked to argue with Larry and Jim and put those two bitches in their place.

I remember when Wlad Klitschko first got KO'd, Larry was goin off about "This is a shock to the boxing world!"

And George was like "Its not a shock to the boxing world. I think its more of a shock to your world Larry."
