Who is the best boxing analyst(s) in your opinion ? Who do you trust for an unbiased view of todays top boxers? No agenda, just a good technical eye and breakdown of the game. also include your thoughts on who you think are the best commentators
There are so many good ones and they all bring something good to the broadcast. In No Specific Order...Here are My Favs. Teddy Atlas - He just Bring so much Experience to a fight. And his analagies, anecdotes and metaphors are just down-right Hilarious. Roy Jones Jr. - Jones Jr. is THE BEST Anticipator of the Action of any analyst I have ever seen. Exapmle: Jones Jr. "Now you see that Jab, it's a nice jab but he bring it back low with NO defensive movement after he throws it. If he don't be careful when he bring that jab back low again expect to a counter over the top and he's gonna be 'Kissin' the Canvas'". And 10 Sensonds later what happens...DEAD THE **** ON!!! And in Typical Jones Jr. Fashion...he says in his Southern Hood-Talk..."I TOLD YA'LL!!!" Antonio Tarver - Tarver is just a solid all-around Boxing Analyst. He doesn't over-talk, keeps it about the action, loves when he comments on what is/was said in the fighters corners. Al Bernstein - Another Ol' Skool Analyst that brings alot of Experience to the Sport. Solid before, during and after a fight in breaking-down what happened and why it happened. Others who are good: Shannon Briggs - He sat-in for Teddy Atlas a few years back....DAMN HE WAS GOOD!!! The "Sky Sports" Team - Damn they are good. B.J. Flores Glen Johnson
trust yourself my friend, as everyone else surely has their secret bias (or not secret for some you may know of) :rasta
Yup im a fan of teddy as well, more for his old school mentality and how he pulls no punches. I just like how he puts it into perspective :yep Roy Jones, I heard is avery gud analyst, but i'd like to see more of him :good Al Bernstein seems good on the boxing channel, well see how he compares to the hbo crew on my next ppv buy. Dont mind the Hbo crew at all, quite entertaining except when the old guy stumbles through what he's saying. Thanks :good
Thanks, Ya i know what you mean. Ive heard most of the guys mentioned already. I just find it a bit odd, specially when listening to the Hbo crew and it sometimes seem like im watching a diff fight lol
Ya he comes up with some random good stuff like "Death by a thousand left hands" No fans for Manny Steward or Kellerman?
