    Roy is the best color commentator in boxing. Paulie is good but he has the voice of 13 year old boy.

    :-(

    Roy Jones is a fine commentator. He's much, MUCH better than Max Kellerman.

    :deal

    If Roy continues to fight, it may start having an effect on his mental capability and his broadcasting career.

    I haven't seen Roy commentate in a long time but I did find him to be very accurate with his analysis of the fights he worked on.

    i like roy, i didnt watch hbo last night though but i heard hbo were heavily biased towards loma.

    al bernstein is the best, ranallo is really bad, jim watt is woeful to the point that im actually wondering if he was trolling in the froch-groves, bute-pascal and burns-crawford fights lol.

    johnny nelson and tony bellew are awful pundits who are always wrong.

    mcrory is good,

    joe tessitore is good, atlas is an ATG.

    I can't stand Lampley, Merchant, and Kellerman.

    Why do you not like them? I'm curious because those are the guys I like :) (used to hate Kellerman's soul, but he's gotten a lot better since he's gotten more comfortable and isn't such a nervous nelly any more).

    He's not too bad, and his preview to Chavez Jr-Vera was nicely done, though sometimes I find he can be a little stubborn with his opinions, shooting others down and often pulling the old "well, you never boxed before" card instead of meeting his co-workers halfway and articulating what he's talking about.

    Commentating isn't about getting on your high horse.

    Again, pretty solid, but disagreements should not be launch pads to sabotage another's opinion.

    Wow, Roy Jones Jr is suffering from severe brain damage since that schooling he took from Super Joe Calzaghe. He's a spectactical commentator considering his condition.

    RJJ is awesome. I am surprised he is still so good after so many brutal knockouts.

    Still gives good insigh and perspective.
