    Lampley. if youve ever been to a fight and sat near the hbo spot he interacts with the fans quite a bit and has a break voice to boot

    Al Bernstein has always been my favorite. I remember when I was a kid, Prime Ticket came out with "Fight Night and the Forum" and Chick Hearn called some fights and was incredible.

    RIP I'm old school mines is Howard Cosell.Todays commentators are a joke.

    I was right to back Muhammad Ali, but it caused me major enmity in many areas of this nation.
    Howard Cosell

    Name one commentator today that fit together with one fighter hand in hand.

    I like Gus Johnson as a play-by-play man, Al as the color, and Tarver as the third announcer.....basically, showtime has the best group, IMO.

    I like Lampley, Kellerman, and Tarver.

    At the bottom are Fish eyed Larry Merchant and Big Dumb George Foreman.

    I was going to say Roy myself. I think he does an excellent job.

    But Lennox Lewis?:huh He could barely put a knowledgeable sentence together.
