Love Bernie. His commentary with Hagler-Hearns has become part of that fight for me.

For boxing knowledge and analysis, Al but its hard to beat Lampley as a boxing commentator when it comes to hyping up the play by play .....

Maybe a good way to put it is, in an action packed fight, I would want Lampley, in a slower paced fight where we want commentary or actual boxing analysis, Al .....

I always find that there is something missing in the actual play by play on Showtime though I like Al and Paulie. I do not find that to be the case with HBO (still good) even now without Larry Merchant(my wife hated him for some reason ...lol). The guys that replaced him are doing a decent job.

Not a good comparison because Bernstein is a color commentator, he's not play-by-play

A better comparison Lampley vs. Mauro Ranallo.

Or Bernstein vs. Kellerman

[ShoulderRoll]

Bernstein acts like a professional, objective journalist. Lampley has become so biased that it's unbearable.
