I tihnk Lamps has seen it all by now I dont think Larry and Jim want to do HBo after dark any more or some shit...also Roy was dicking around making them look like fools and pre-interviews and shit plus blast them on the air..
I second this opinion but do u guys notice that lately he hasn't put his usual "full effort" into commentating like he used to do. Like he used to yell and get excited, now he just kind of talks his way through fights?
Is it just me, or does any one else notice it? It started in like 2004.
That's true. It's like he doesn't care anymore. Maybe he is depressed.
I don't know who gets paid what-but I do know that Jim Lampley and Mr. Steward are gentlemen.
The diminutive Mr. Merchant is another story, however.
A couple of years ago, myself and another boxing writer approached him in Houston at the Juan Diaz - Lakva Sim fight card.
Larry appeared to be on the deck of a ship at high sea, hanging onto the ring apron for support at times.
I will give him the benefit of the doubt saying he was on prescription medication as I did not see him consuming any alcohol, ok?
Mr. Merchant was very confused and unsure of his surroundings that particular evening, and was disoriented.

...That ship on high seas bit gives a great mental image. lol lol

I'd have to say Steward makes more than them all....simply because he has added income as a trainer.
Although....I'd say Merchant and Lampley get paid more for calling fights.
Merchant and Lampley probably make around $300,000 a year each for all of their activities related with H.B.O.
Steward probably makes around a half mil a year with all of his complete endeavours. Those are just my guess estimates.
