    I really wish they would, he was so great in the 80's-early 90's. He knows boxing and talks alot of sense.

    Anyone know why they got rid of him?

    Listen, there are enough problems in the world without causing another by having HBO bring Leonard back.

    If I recall correctly, during Leonard divorce proceeding it came out that he did some/bunch of cocaine.

    Apparently he didn't share with the other announcers and they got pissed.

    I agree with you on George, but I couldn't understand what RJJ was saying half the time, I had a real hard time understanding him.

    Foreman once called a guy 6'12" I believe...

    Regardless, he had some great lines. His favorite: HE LOOKS TOO DRY TO ME.

    He loveeeeeeeeeeeed talking about fighters who weren't sweating enough when they entered the ring.

    George Foreman was shitty.

    Roy Jones was great.

    I agree SRL would be awesome.

    I too enjoy RJJ as an analyst. It was good to hear him on the call for the ESPN Classic re-airing of Cintron-Feliciano.

"oh no now... cant be doin that ... you never wanna follow or chase a puncher around" but i liked him....i thought i hated larry merchant.... that was until they brought in max kellerman(who looks like he snorted 2 kilos of coke lmao...) i think george lampley an merchant an rjj would be good an sometimes emauel
