    I liked them all. Foreman acted stupid sometimes, just trying to make stands on meaningless points to purposely fight with Merchant, but Lennox is really starting to come into his own, and Roy was always good.

    Damn!! That was a hard one to pick for me. I like them all, but the only criticizm I could come up with of all 3 is Lennox inabillity to pronounce names correctly. He should practice the names of the fights he is to call for a week before the fight like homework or some ****.:lol:

    I'm with Big George. You at least knew where George was coming from at all time -- he liked punchers, and was always at his most excitable when we was watching punchers. Beyond the punchers' bias, Big George had charisma and a simpleness that I like moreso than either Roy or Lennox.

    Roy was great when it came to technical aspects of the game, Lewis is great in regards to the trainer's mindset.

    Steward has yet to be mentioned (he's not a fighter though). I find Steward to offer similar things to Lennox, but he's always mentioning how he knew the outcome long before the fight was over. I find Steward annoying for the most part.

    All credit to Lennox for his new calling card -- ITS OVAHHH!!!!

    Yes very good team there, but I enjoy Lampley-Merchant-Steward too.

    Although I've seen some posters call Steward bias one way or the other, his comments and analysis are usually spot on and easy to see what he means.

    Foreman, Jones then Lewis.

    Based solely on how many times they told Larry to shut the **** up when he was talking out of his ass.

    Ive liked Lewis a long time but he's too uptight behind the mic still. And too nice. Foreman was an ******* but at least he didnt take any **** from Merchant.
