    It was great when Jones said to Merchant:
    "Well Larry you never boxed, if you boxed then maybe you would know what I was talking about...." :rofl :rofl

    That was when I finally respected Roy as a commentator. He is one of my favorite fighters ever, but that night he got my respect from behind the microphone. The thing that makes it even better, is that he was ABSOLUTELY correct in his assesment.

    Larry's response : "well roy, we can agree to disagree without pulling rank"


    AHAHAHAHAHAHAH

    shut the **** up larry you worthless old hack.

    Roy was always dead-on with his analysis of the fights. He used to predict **** that happened exactly as he said, like "he's gonna get caught with a left hook if he's not careful...." and then 1 round later, Bam! a left hook puts him out :deal

    Please dont mention that clowns name EVER AGAIN..

    You want ratings to drop??

    Who would respect Tarvers opinion??Eventhough he would most probably have alot of knowledge of the fightgame i still wouldnt want to hear any of it..

    Iron mike is the man people should be chasing.He has shitloads of knowledge and i would respect his opinions.Plus love him or hate him people wanna hear what he has to say..

    Would be great for him to interview fighters after their bouts.

    Mike Tyson has ****ed up every single thing he has ever done in life....what makes you think he would be able to succeed as a commentator? Or even show up to work on time or at all?

    Im not sure if he would turn up or that he would succeed.But give him a go..He does have alot of knowledge of the fightgame and would be a huge figure to have part of the commentry team.

    I would rather listen to him than the likes of Merchant or Lennox Lewis to be honest.Great boxer but just doesnt cut it as a commentator/t.v personality.

    Foreman, than Jones, whats funny is that Manny know a whole lot but is very biased in sane fights. Aside from the the Hopkins- Trinidad, Foreman wasnt really a nuthugger or hater, he was just funny and spared with Merchant a whole lot which made it even better.
