    Bette fight commentator, Roy Jones Jr, Lennox Lewis or Antonion Tarver?

    1. Roys brash experienced straight to the point commentating

    2. Lennox Lewis at times funny but gentlemanly commentating, sometimes with an emphasis on "quadrupling that jab" commentating.

    3. Antonio Tarver, fair and balanced even keel informative commentating.

    I like them all equally. They both provide a lot of insight into the game. There are things that they say that I never thought of while watching the fight. Even the journalists beside them who were not previous boxers do not have that insight.

    Tarver is damn good. Roy is ok, kinda self promoting at times though. Lewis is terrible imo. He says the same lines ovah and ovah again. He makes Lampley not seem so annoying. I would say the best fighters I heard are Tarver and Briggs, Briggs does well on FNF as a guest announcer. He's a very personable guy.

    I liked Forman..Merchant and forman together was fun..I think RJJ sucked Tarver less so. LL will be good one day..He's gotta grow into it...Manny is the best replacment 4 big George.

    George Foreman and Manny Steward are the best I've ever seen so that's where the thread ends for me.

    Foreman's one of the most embarassing commentators of all time.
