WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross will be the new boxing play-by-play commentator for CBS Sports.
“I never said I was retired,” Ross told Dan Gelston of the AP. “I never found the gig that fit what I needed. The need wasn’t just the money. It wasn’t the money. The need was, can I do something that I feel at this stage of my life, at 64 — what can I do that, I’m motivated to get up and go to work, get on that plane again, pack the bag again, check in the hotel again? It’s got to be a fun project.”
Ross will make his debut on March 12 at the “Knockouts at the D” event in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Las Vegas Events Center.
