    I did like Gus more than the guy who the OP tried to describe. Forgot his name too...

    Gus seems to have made habit of wearing out his welcome

    Gus wanted more money than CBS would give, so he's over in Murdoch-land.

    I don't miss him in boxing but do miss him in the NCAA Tournament.

    He's the black Mauro Renallo, and that's not a good thing.

    Mauro, aside from his weird fake voice and the way he tries to manufacture excitement, is a really good commentator. You can tell he does his homework on the fighters, and he knows his boxing history as far as he needs to.

    Gus also had an over-the-top delivery, but add to that the fact that he DKSAB and couldn't go through a broadcast without saying something ******ed. Mauro generally has good stuff to say and knows how to interact with the other commentators.
