How many times has this biased old crow forgotten boxers names (or what the hell he was talking about) in the middle of his monologues only to have to be bailed out by someone? Does he have a clause that says he has to die on camera?

2. Jim Lampley
Anyone who says that Lampley is the best simply does not know boxing. Lampley is a lackee that came to the big times because he had a small time job at ABC commentating fights when a young man named MIKE TYSON started showing up WEEKLY that show. The whole act was doon moved to Saturday's on Wide World of Sports... That's why ESP can show classics all week long... He is a slave to whomever pays the check, and will gladly tell you so. Commentator for a network-yes, journalist-no.

3. Max Kellerman
Too much truth for mainstream!!! I definitely don't think so, but many of the conservative types will. I love the way he gets behind his commentary. Don't get me wrong... I don't agree with everything he says, but his resource of knowledge and the way he delivers it tells me that he has BOTH of the guys above shaking in their pants and looking for a way to keep him in his place... at the FAR table!

***Lennox Lewis is only commentating because Jones, Jr. got completely DROPPED by HomeBoyOffice...
Dude! Lampley is well spoken and comes of with a professional finish. He keeps everything in line. and sounds good to the ear. Max has knowledge yes , but that does not make him a good Commentator,? Max makes everyone feel uncomfortable, because he so argumentative and arrogant .. ! Max is horrible on HBO BAD , giving those looks to his commentary partners, like you guys don't what the fu#$ is going on. Which they don't ! but doing that makes for an uncomfortable environment for everyone, including the most important people. the ones watching the F$#ing show ! And Don't tell me I don't know boxing. ! That’s amateur Real amateur ! You want boxing knowledge and some style Teddy Atlas is the man !
