    If Guzman and Funikka fight again, will Lennox manage to pronounce Funegga's name correctly? What is it about the name "Fu*****" that is so difficult?

    It's hard to pronounce Funarcka.

    I have to say though, I loved his "Who-hoooo-hooo-ho!" reaction to the KD.

    That was good, but i wish he'd throw out the "ITS OVA!!!" line more. I think that one was during Austin vs Wlad.


    For Lewis' sake, let's hope there won't be a rubbermatch between Funnakgi and Guzman.

    why the hell would Guzman fight him again? He's got bigger fish to fry. About to clean out 140. Only big fights from here on out.

    Forgot how orgasmic Lennox sounded on the "It is ovaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh" prior to the "IT'S OVA!"

    You're right, he was going insane there.

    Here he says it as a formality: (1:30)

    If Lennox doesn't know that feet is plural and that he doesn't need to say "feets".... then there's really no hope.

    "They keep getting their feets tangled".

    He cannot even say 'Klitschko', even though he has fought him. He still says 'Klitsko'.

    His inability to pronounce words notwithstanding, I thought this weekend was his best most insightful commentary in years
