So which commentators do you think are the most consistently biased when they're commentating on a fight. Who has a hidden agenda which they're trying to promote with the way they commentate on a fight? Is it HBO or is it Showtime commentators who are the most corrupt and untrustworthy or are they about equal?

Lampley and it doesn't get more obvious than that. He literally rides Manny. HBO without a doubt.

HBO and by a long shot. Seems like they zero in on the "cash cow" and compliment every dam aspect of their game. I cant stand listening to those old guys. Get some new blood in there and have more women doing interviews. Like who really wants to listen to some 60 somethings and 80 somethings. Larry Merchant will do work for HBO if he is 100 if it was up to him I bet

Like the other 2 posters said, far and away it is HBO. At times it's unbareable to listen to. I wish there was a way you can watch the HBO feed and only mute out the commentary and still get the rest of the audio.
Showtime is not bad, they don't "protect" any fighters. There's really no reason for Showtime to show the same bias as HBO does for their fighters; Once a fighter has a good showing on Sho, they're usually on their way to HBO. Although Sho has had some high profile fights in recent years...

When Showtime call fights, Gus Johnson seems equally excited for BOTH FIGHTERS!
Compared to Lampley who only call punches or get excited for the fighter(s) he wants to WIN
SO OF COURSE HBO!
