    Roy Jones was the only one talking sense. How can you complain about Roy when Larry Merchant was sitting beside him. Seemed liked Larry had never seen Haye fight before and thought he was some inside fighter who was gonna press the fight.

    I thought Roy Jones was great last saturday night. He said all Haye will do is to throw 1 punch at a time for a ko. Larry was just flat out funny. My favorite quote from Larry is "Well he's (Haye) wasting my time."

    You could have Sam Peter in the ring right after the decision to ask the fighters " who necks ? "

    Shannon Briggs used to be a awesome commentator for Teddy Atlas on FNF when Teddy had to go do the Olympics

    I watched him in interview before signing to fight calzahge and he was as sharp as a pin and quite articulate - the fact that his speech was lazy and half mumbled the other night is alarming in light of his last fight and its brutal KO .

    His speech has always been ****ed up. It's so frustrating and hard to listen to. I'd rather listen to Lennox.

    Not a chance unless he gets divorced. The HBO crew isnt going to want his wife around there.

    RJJ is the best in the business his insight is without peer. Sure he didn't do that great of a job in the Wlad-haye fight but his analysis is usually spot on. RJJ is the best guy HBO has.:deal

    Agreed. Foreman is the best on HBO.

    Jermain Taylor might be good as well.

    Hopkins is always good on camera.

    Wouldn't be bad. They should give it a shot.

    I think she's photoshopped, but the one on the right...that would work.

    With the exception of getting names mixed up, I thought Roy did a stellar job. And in general, I find his commentary to be exceptional; far better than Tarver.

    Roy Jones Jr is in one of the best in the business. You dont know what the **** you're talking about.


    I would have lost my mind watching Wlad fight. Roy was great to not lose his cool watchin that bull****.

    sometimes i see things Roys way, sometimes he sounds stupid. I can appreciate Tarver better. Either do a better job than Bobby Cycz did.

    I dunno, I thought Roy was pretty awful.

    Bring back Foreman!
