    Lennox always delivers a few classic quotes in every broadcast, for example last night's "you can't catch what you can't hit." If they could team him up with Foreman and RJJ then we would have the greatest broadcasting team ever assembled.

    My favorite Lewis quote is "a lot of good basketball players play basketball".

    Other classics are:

    "You need both eyes in there"
    "Athleteism, athleticicicism, athleism, athleticist, althetlitc, althleticism"
    "It's over!"

    Seems to be a Kellerman trademark. Remember the same thing happened after the Jones Calzaghe when he asked Joe to step up to the plate and face........ Chad Dawson!!!!

    Not going to read through all of this. I like him for his insight. He gets a pass from me on how he says it. He knows what he is saying when he talks about boxing and that is what matters.

    He's not even close to Barry Michaels calling Mundine fights, not even half as painful.

    lennox is awesome!!! I like hearing his opinion.


    The worst one is max kellerman! He is a joke who is too often making references to past fights and overanalyzing everything.

    I don't mind Lennox Lewis's commentary, but Emannuel Steward is better.

    What's wrong with his English? You don't like the accent?

    Like Sam Peters, Lennox Lewis, Cotto,... his english is poor. Our American fighters speak better English than he does; they speak proper English.
