Lamps Making A Comeback with Ring Magazine!

Jim should have stayed retired. He was awful the other nite. He reminded me of Meldrick Taylor at the end of his career.

 

Another gem I somehow missed. Awesome stuff Greg.

My only criticism of Lamps is that he could’ve been a bit more creative and also thrown in some Ka-pows, Codswallops and **** Stoppers! Holy innuendos, Batman!

Haha, wtf?!?

Ka-pow - yeah, ok, standard stuff

Codswallop - hmmm

**** stop - coincidentally the nickname for one of the group of mates I used to regularly go drinking with back in my 20's, he was the polar opposite of a good wingman.

Clinic - they're not even trying to make them in any way relatable anymore.

Kenya - I'd love it if Lamps shouted out the name of African nations to emphasise thr violent impact of punches in his next commentary. Obscure, much?

 

"Sanders is floating like a drunken sailor"

That quote sticks in my mind from Jim Lampley.

 

I love your idea of Lamps working through the African nations.

Varying the terms slightly - Lamps: “Zaire it was folks, he’s just been Congo’d and Morocco’d. Kenya believe it?”

 

I grew up in the 90s ….Jim Lampley will always be the voice of boxing for me
