Apparently, Ward was a guest commentator for the Jennings-Szpilka fight. How did he do? Do you think he'd make a good commentator?
He was OK needs some more time though ..He could learn allot from Jones in talking about strategy during the fights .
Ward is a pretty regular HBO commentator, and is by far my favorite out of the bunch. He is articulate and actually knows wtf he is talking about. RJJ knows boxing, but he can be hard to listen to on occasion.
He mine as well make it his full time gig. Because he sure isn't gaining any fans by the way he fights.
last night was the first night i didnt like him that much. hes good tho better then the regulars. RJJ is good tho but he will have off nights.
I much prefer Roy Jones. Jones is likable and personable, while Ward is dull and has a smug arrogance.
I appreciate his commentary. And I like to see different fight people rotate through that chair, just to get a variety of insights. If only HBO would do the same with Max Kellerman's chair. I'm not so impressed with their new unofficial judge, but I admit I pretty much tune him out most of the time.
