    Lennox has this dubious distinction and by quite a mile.

    tito/hopkins was his worst ever.

    george kept hoping for that big punch that would get tito back into the fight.

    I really like George Foreman as a commentator he's very entertaining lol not always 100% accurate but has interesting/funny things to say. I love when Merchant and George go at it lmao

    George was one of the best. He always offered good insight.

    I don't understand how he knew some things. Like round 10 of Holyfield v Bowe. He knew that Holyfield wasn't going down "he is gonna stay on his feet too", whilst Evander was being pounded from pillar to post.

    "Don't do it....you don't want to do that."

    In many ways, that was his finest moment.

    This reminds me. I was watching Mosley/DLH 1 a few weeks back, and George said Oscar's jab was doing damage to Mosley's back. I was like "wtf is George talking about?" I think it was before round 8, Mosley was complaining about back problems. He's really quirky, but he knows his stuff...and is always entertaining.

    Quite the contrary, Foreman is my absolute favorite commentator of all-time. An outstanding commentator, indeed!
