    Lennox fumbled what he was saying far too much. I think Roy has a major edge in poise and clear communication.

    Lewis was a terrible commentator. Picture him as someone you didn't know and you'd be questioning why in the **** he has a commentating job. Roy on the other hand is very good.

    Of the two, RJJ hands down. It always seemed like Lewis was pushed, against his will, to fill Big George's shoes due to his name recognition. He always sounded ill-prepared and repeated the same things over and over.
    RJJ isn't eloquent by any means but at least you can tell that he wants the job and that he has prepared ahead of time to give timely insight when the situation calls for it.

    With this said however, I'd take Bobby Czyz over almost any other current boxing commentator.

    Collazo would probably be a really commentator as well. I still say Czyz is the best I've seen though.
