    They did good. Roy's speech is surprisingly clear as well.

    I think they did a great job and its been a while were the cast was not being bias and calling it correctly. Roy Jones NBA comments was a comparison to the experience Rigo has seen from his amateur to olympic gold medals were he has seen the best, learn, and face all types of fighters, year after year.

    The Colonel should be renamed "The Private" or "The Cook"
    He's woeful,and genuinely ruins fights.
    He has no idea what Ring Generalship means and it was almost as if his favourite nephew was fighting.
    I lost count of the times he said things along the lines of"
    "Great shot from Nonito" or "Donaire's handspeed" when it was Rigo pulling the actual moves.
    And I was disappointed by Timmy,who offered no technical insight that I couldn't see myself.
    Must be hard with The Private spouting drivel in your ear.
    He even boasted about usually being bang on with Julie Lederman when it comes to scoring.

    And Rios Alvarado... i Been happy with their commentating these past 2 fights, **** even for Estrada Viloria they did a good job calling it how it was and not riding the Favorties nuts.

    Personally, I think 3 guys in the booth is a bit much. They trip all over themselves trying to say something deep and insightful when they get a chance to talk. As for Roy, I don't even know what the hell he is talking about half the time. But, hey, if that is the team HBO is giving us we will have to live with it.
