Murray Walker
Murray Walker is, along with Richie Benaud, my favourite commentator of anything ever. RIP

Walker: "I just happen to have my magic chart with me, it's a sort of shorthand thing of everything I need to know".
Jim Rosenthal: "And how often do you actually look down at that?"
Walker: "Never"

A classic voice of commentary gone. Walker could have commentated on bean flicking (no not that type you dirty buggars) and made it interesting.
For me the most synonymous quote will be:
"And it's GO GO GO for the <<insert GP>>"
Sleep well man. You made a great impact upon many with your voice alone.

Bruce Buffer with a very emotional tribute just now before the Estrada/Chocolatito fight.
Hagler a bona fide legend. That first round against Tommy Hearns will never be forgotten. RIP

I always thought he was knowledgable but too slow in his presenting and never a match for the late Brian Moore and as for Des I would still prefer him now to Gary Lineker on MOD

I hate Lineker as a presenter. I can't exactly put my finger on what it is, but there is just something about him I don't like. His pointless 'dad jokes' on twitter aside I think its the whole 'isn't football the greatest thing ever' type shtick, which I am well aware is what he is paid for, but it just irritates me.
