    Yeah! Hehehehe.....stuff like

    "He don't wanna be getting hit like that"

    "He's gotta be careful, he don't wanna get knocked out"

    "I can see Floyd being on the defensive in this fight and picking his shots"

    Lennox needs to go.

    If they are going to go with ex-boxers I'd like to see Joe Mesi get a shot. I thought he did a great job in studio on ESPN.

    Yup, agree completely. He definitely adds a level of unintentional comedy to the broadcast that is priceless, imo. And at this stage, I'd rather listen to his commentary than Merchant. Yeah, I said it.

    Personally the team that I liked was

    Lampley
    Foreman
    Merchant

    Although I think Lennox is ok.

    I'd rather see them get rid of Max Kellerman

    Kellerman is more in tune with the current state of boxing. He's not great but he's not bad either. He asks serious questions that fans want answered. He tries to be objective.

    :lol: For all the dislike we have for that call, it's arguably apart of one of the more famous moments in HW boxing.

    "RAHMAN IS GONNA GET KNOCKED OUT JIM! I'M TELLIN YA JIM HE'S GONNA GET KNOCKED OUT! HE'S GONNA---THAT'S IT! THAT'S IT! IT'S OVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

    Lennox practically violated himself during that final round.

    Get Roy in. Or even Tarver. Tarver was really good.

    I agree. Lennox is okay when he's with Lampley and Merchant; but as a whole, the B.A.D team is not very good. The lead play by play man is weak and along with Kellerman, it brings down the whole broadcast. Shannon Briggs is great on the stick, he does ESPN sometimes. B-Hop too.

    Without Lennox we would not have:

    Paulie Maginolo
    Ali Funinja
    Isaac Flapsweeo (Credit to Arriba)
    Librado Andrague

    The man is Golden........Definitely.

    Yuriorkis Gamboga was another one
    Vitali Tyspko was Vitali "Spitko" about four times
    I could list the 10 different variations of Ali Funeka but I think we've got it already :lol:
