    Very sad news, I always enjoyed him on Shobox, and it was a nice gesture of HBO to let him commentate on one last fight a few months back.

    He was a great guy, RIP.

    I loved his commentary on Codrington vs Allen Green, it was up there with Gus Johnson's take of Froch-Taylor imo.

    I saw 1 where he was recording video messages for his infant daughter to watch when she is older.... absolutely heartbreaking viewing.

    Mike Tyson really liked and respected him. I remember seeing an interview after he was charged with ****. Mike made sure nick got to the front of interviewers
