He's not terrible he just doesn't add anything.
Basically Lampley will just feed him lines, make a statement and ask Lewis if he agrees, he always does but doesnt explain anything other than repeat what Lampley has said and then Lampley will do the elaboration.
He's just there as an iconic figure, the last great heavyweight champ but his input as far as commentary and fight insight is nil.
Roy Jones was great because he had opinions and would talk like he was actually watching the fight and was interested in what's going on.
With Lennox I usually picture him sitting in his booth getting his dreads plaited and being fed grapes and other fruits whilst signing autographs and occaisionally Lampley will push the microphone his way whilst a voice in his ear says 'Agree with Lampley just say this 'Exactly, what's happening right now is that......' and let Lampley take over again from there.
