Y'ALL MUST'VE FORGOT.
Damn, it's been forever since we've had this duo. Shoutout to Ariel for making my boomer dreams come true.
I can't understand WHY Amazon or Dazn.. ANYBODY hasn't picked him up as an commentator. Name one single person on this planet that is better than him and has commentated as many fights as him? We love him!
I don't think they can afford his rate. He can command a lot because he's the best.
Man that hug really got me 😭🤩 thank you Ariel for making that happen!!
No lie, me too. You could feel the respect and appreciation between them.
Two of them are the best Roy Jones and Jim lampley. Roy Jones is one of the best if not the best ever to step in the ring
Seeing Jim and Roy together is such a beautiful thing. They really were the perfect team. If Turki brings back HBO Boxing to its glory days I just might call him his excellency 😭
Unequalled commentary. All of the other teams are ok but have not risen to the level HBO Boxing created and maintained for years.
That's a snapple fact
Love him or dislike him, this is true.
I could listen to Roy Jones Jr talk boxing all day. Man is a genius.
It didn't get better than Lampley, Stuart, Lederman, Jones, Lewis, Kellerman. Their commentary was iconic and defined an era, any combination of them. You just had to be there.
Real ones got goosebumps when the hbo boxing theme song came on
You forgot Foreman
@@shawnramos1305 You're right I'm surprised I did, he commentated some of my favorite fights and was a staple voice of HBO in the 90s and early 00's.
@@lamart3857 The whole HBO production was ahead of it's time, miss everything about it.
Larry Merchant too
STOP age-shaming the art of speech. Lampley is needed. No other efficiently describes the events. Period. ✊🏽🥊
What an era these two were! Great stuff Ariel!
24:00 I APPLAUD Roy for calling these networks out to their faces. They have cheap, terrible commentators, and it’s a complete disgrace to not have Roy, Jim, and Max announcing fights anywhere right now. DAZN, FOX, ESPN are all TRASH
I Remember when Lampley, Ray Leonard and Larry Merchant called the Tyson/ Douglas fight. Ray said " Unbelievable" when Tyson was counted out. HBO was the best.
Me too, miss Larry.. After the 3rd round: "Well I don't know if Douglas will shock the World, but so far he has shocked me"!!
UNBELIEVABLE CREW!!!! I grew up with these 2, correction...3 Absolute 3 class ACTS!!!!
I missed their commentating. Roy was so dope. He was a CHAMPION while commentating on a fight!!!!
For the longest time HBO boxing was the only reason I had HBO. That one weekend a month was worth it imo. It's a shame it went away.
That theme music alone...
I miss HBO Boxing so much! It brings back memories of visiting my dad on the weekends as a kid. I would love to see it come back!
Both were always my favorites together.
Thank You for this one Ariel!!!
Dope seeing and hearing Jim Lampley & Roy Jones talk boxing together.
Thank you Ariel for being a fan of these guys and bringing them together again.
Where’s Max?
Boxing commentary has not been the same since HBO left. The voice of boxing Jim Lampley
HBO boxing ❤
These are two great people. I have much respect for both.
Jim was the best boxing announcer ever💯💯💯
Jim Lamply and Howard Coswell, Max keller, the best.
Miss these guys and Max of course. Bring them back PLEASE!!!!
The best pair of boxing announcers.
Helwani is back! Creating the biggest moments in mma, boxing and wrestling interviews!
It wasn’t an emotional reunion though. They merely hugged and sat down lol.
Love this team. Also love Antonio Tarver and Andre Ward on the mic doing color commentary but no one touches Lampley on the play by play.
@17:46. PAUSE!! 😂😂😂
Amazing! 🎤🥊
Damn Ariel putting great stuff together. RIP HBO boxing and Showtime boxing.
Ariel repping hard for my City with the MTL bagel dunks! St. Viateur 4 lyyyyyfe
Roy Jones Jr. and Jim Lampley need to have a boxing podcast . Roy Jones Jr. and Jim Lampley reunite are a key part of bringing boxing life and into the future . Roy Jones Jr. and Jim Lampley lets not forget max. LETS MAKE BOXING GREAT AGAIN .
that was cool. HBO the heart and soul! oh by the way, if any of y'all have Prime they play old school HBO replays in its entirety.
Are you serious?? You’re the fucking man bro! 🫡
Legend
I would love to see HBO bring back boxing.
They would be a BIG improvement over what's out there now.
Its criminal that Jim hasn't been doing commentary , there are very few people that can call a fight like this man, there are historical voices we all hear and it soothes us , Jim's is one of those historical voices, vin scully for baseball, bob cole, harry neale for hockey.....
We also need Larry Merchant out there drunk and saying wild shit.
Have you played with yourself as yourself 😂 I love Helwani but I couldn't let this slide... picture Rampage going WTF haha. All love ❤
I think around 17min lol
I wonder if Foreman would hug Merchant if they got together, they used to clash with differing opinions calling the fights.
"down goes Jones! On a hard left hand..and there is the first that Roy Jones has ever been hurt..only Lou D ever knocked him down...he may not get up!" -Lampley "its over!" -Merchant
"He's not getting up Jim!"
“BURGER KING…..”
IYKYK
Show turki this and he'll get it sorted out.
They were the best and glad they called out the bad commentators today like Mauro Renao and the showtime crew
When JMM knocked out Manny Pacquiao, Jim and Roy losing their shit was one of the best moments in TV history 😂😂😂😂
Usyk is number #1 for me he beat dubois,joshua, and fury as a natural cruiserweight
Small point, but Madrimov is not Eastern European... he's Central Asian
Nice
Crazy Ariel got fired from another job
75 never looked so good
How aint nobody offer da big homie jim a job? Smh
Let me guess, Jim Lampley starts crying at some point in this show. I've seen this guy cry 5 times in interviews and I'm not even a boxing fan lol. Get him TRT ASAP.
😂😂😂
Roy " Glass Jaw " Jones
Emanuel Steward was the best.
This is weird... Ariel is ufc or mma host.. this is kinda weird... why you talking about boxing a lot?
Chasing the money
Pretending to care about English football when the money seemed there
Been watching Ariel since day one. He forgets who put him where he is. Sometimes you can spread yourself too thin. Ariel crowned king ,peeps be coming for the King. They best not miss , he got that Amazon corporate juice now. I am interested In the MMA ,what he is known for. Where he made his bones. The expert. So we accept the nerd. He does not have such a storied or expertise on other sports. I watched him cover the Olympics and prostitute himself on the LeBron narrative like the rest. In MMA he has yet been caught or has not done that. I am interested where this all goes.He is a MTL homie ,so I tend to support him. If he stops the original Monday 4 hour MMA hour ,his calling card , I will watch less content than before .✌️🥊🥊
I miss hearing Jim Lampley voice covering the fights
Hbo not being in boxing is exactly whats wrong with boxing, don't believe me? Go listen to the original hbo boxing theme song and tell me that doesn't make you feel like running around the block and punching someone in the face
One is Little G D rider and other one is a Canelo hater 😂
Does the audience even know this is taking place? Rude crowd.
Damn Roy looks old. Time sure flies.
Oh cool. Yet another brand appropriating Basquiat's crown as their logo. Be more original !
Did Jackson really squash you Ariel? You guys may be a good friend but he never like you..
Lol ariel getting no views with his new move
Does Jim have Parkinson’s ?
Lampley is a bais hater and Roy been knocked out too many times it says crazy things. I haven't forgot Tarver knocking you out Roy
i grew up with hbo. they were rome. a golden empire
I forgot about Max man. Yes, it was a real dream team!
those 3 and paulie malignaggi were by far the best commentators
Paulie was a mug 👎
@@DeputyDog-mh1yona Paulie knows his shit
@@flipspearing then who did you consider to be a mug? 😳
@@DeputyDog-mh1yo Chris mannix
@@flipspearing makes sense because I've never heard of him
Are they gay?
Ariel sucks.
Hey Ariel, nobody knows who these two are, and nobody cares.
Are you on crack?
That’s boxing hall of famer Roy Jones Jr, won titles all the way from middleweight to heavyweight, made over 55 million, drastically more than any UFC fighter will make or will ever make. And the other guy is Jim Lampley, one of the greatest boxing announcers ever, Joe Rogan couldn’t hold his jock strap. Hope this helps. Have a good day!
