    When it comes to boxing commentators who had the highest enhanced ring intelligence and why?

    You can choose any network, any journalist, historian whatever. Rather broad spectrum indeed!

    I'm gonna quote my uncle in this one: " he" (Emanuel Steward) "is the guy I like to listen too."

    Chris Algieri, he’s a well spoken guy that always provides some insightful commentary.

    That's a difficult one. I think they all have equal IQs and I couldn't say one has a higher IQ than the others or that there's one who I consider the best commentator. There's not even one I prefer to listen to than the others. They're all excellent and being a commentator is really tough job. Thank you for your service to all the commentators out there.

    In recent times Paulie has been great and I’ve always liked Teddy Atlas

    Both excellent. Paulie is the best by far, current day.

    Emanuel of course, I also like Roy Jones Jr a lot and Teddy Atlas. Can't stand George Foreman for some reason.

    Yeah, Teddy tends to dwelve into these psychological/inspirational/philosophical tales but I like it. He really is insightful, seems to love and know the game from the technical and deeper standpoints. I think there's no one quite like him really, now that I think about about it.

    I don't care as long as it's not those American PBC idiots, who did the Fury Wilder fights.
