    RJJ has appeared on HBO snce the 90s. he's always provided interesting commentary. this is probably your first time watching a fight that has had his commentary. shut the fuk up and stop whining just because he wasn't cheering on your favorite multi millionaire

    where the fuk were you after Merchant interviewed Katsids after the Marquez fight? did you even watch that fight? Merchant is great my ass. watch more fights you idiot

    Roy was fair and objective to both fighters.

    Broadcasting fights is a dream job for a retired boxer because it offers a chance to stay around the sport they love. The thing is that some don't realize that it's a lot harder than it looks. RJJ knows the sport so well, he probably figures he can just show up and talk without any preparation. You can tell that Antonio Tarver takes it seriously and prepares.

    Roy does a great job, he might get carried away and slur some times.... but his actually account of what is HAPPENING in the fight is almost always accurate. Il never forget when he said about 45 seconds into Tito vs Winky that Tito had no chance hahaha.

    RJJ did a great job. He also pointed out that Wlad could be even more dominant if he would throw that right hand to the body.

    In my opinion, if he would have done that, Haye would have been stopped.

    Merchant is great, and I don't like RJJ commentary. I don't watch all the fights, my schedule doesn't allow it. But I have seen plenty to know who I like and don't like commentating and doing interviews.

    Sorry I offended you, must be just before your period. :roll:

    :-((

    I thought RJJ rebounded nicely from last week and did a good job covering Williams v. Lara.
