    I used to think "this mans gonna end up in a pine box" was the best ever line in boxing but "he broke his legs" might top it!!

    I still prefer pine box.

    His rant about Oscar's shoulders during the Trinidad fight was great television too.

    The 90s team of Lampley, George and Larry was broadcasting perfection.

    Agreed. The smooth voiced fanboy commentator, the old cantankerous drunkard without a good word for anyone, the cheerful buffoon who also happened to be the baddest heavyweight ever. Such a bizarre mix.

    Lederman was always crep though.

    Ex squeeze me? I like Lewis as a commentator. Each guy mentioned is in their own unique way.

    Surely you jest? He's god awful. I mean literally awful. Thick as 2 short planks with nothing to say, and the odd bit of shit he does come out with is so bad it's not even funny. He wasn't even good for laughs.

    As much as I loathe Kellerman, he's a far better commentator than Lummox was. Lewis was really the worst I've ever heard on HBO.

    I'm just glad I got to experience it.

    And Jimmy, Lennox was terrible. The worst I've seen. I love him as a fighter, but his microphone skills were low.

    Was always a huge fan of Lennox the HW, but he was excruciating on the mic

    As for the poll I'd say Jones for insight, Foreman for comedy
