I Fuckin hate Jim Lampley ..I can't stand that mother fucker..He should be fired he is so biased its rediculous ..all he does is suck the HBO fighters dick and with his loud ass annoying voice.. he alone is ruining hbo boxing..he sways the judges because they sit right on the other side of the ring..and his so damn loud.. and he been doing it for years I was just watching trinadad whitiker eveything trinadad did was great according to his ass. at one point trinidad hit whitker directly in back of his head and lampley says.. whitikers looking at the ref saying to him self get this guy off me..and you know the ref can hear that shit too..
george foreman was just the same. i just watched the MAB price NAZ fight today and he was all over the princes nuts talking about how much power he had and how he only needed one punch to end the fight shit if i didnt no any better i would have thought they where talking to the princes trainer. im glad hes gone what a HBO nuthugger.
wouldnt u play favorites if u were working for HBO? put it like this if it was wal-mart vs.target and u were on the wal-mart team dont u think u would get in trouble for rooting for target? think of it like that the dude works for hbo. give him a fuckin break
I think Lampley and Merchant are excellent and HBO blows away Showtime in not just production values, but presentation due to their commentary. Foreman LOVED punchers. He always talked about not following a puncher around, plus he was always one to talk about the guy losing so as to convince you the fight was not over yet.
hbo does have better presentation but you are wrong about the commentary al bernstein is better than any of the guys at hbo...he calls fights as they are showtime really does not have the biased analysis that hbo sometimes has ..
watch the de la hoya fight againts tito. you will hear them call shots that never happend. i still saw oscar as the winner but he got credit for some punches he didnt even trow.
Lampley is just a hype machine like jerry springer and it ruins boxing.
He can just announce the fight instead adding his 2 cents when they are worth nothing.
haha guys maybe u disagree with lampleys comments but dont ride his ass about being biased towards hbo fighters. ITS HIS DAMN JOB. he works for hbo haha of course he will promot them more than the other fighters. haha chill
Once upon a time Lampley was good, but that time has long past. He's gotten worse over the years, increasingly more of a blind drama queen.
One of the worst comments he made was saying that Winky Wright was the new king of the middleweight division when he beat Trinidad.
Umm...didn't a crooked-tooth ex-convict fuck Tito anally to win the undisputed 160 lb title four years earlier? And this was before he lost to Taylor.
thats not to out of the ordinary for foreman though, he always favors the punchers. i never thought he was to biased he just likes the big hitters like himself...
Correct. He was all over Torres in the Cotto fight. He just likes big punchers just like himself. Good K.
everyone is shouting like a genious yet nobody is sending there recomendations or resumes
everyone is screaming bias .... do you see coke putting out commericals that brag on pepsi? do you see the guy that does detriot pistons entry going off the hook for the other team? do you see a chevy bragging up ford no ? so why should hbo talk about fighters that arent hbo fighters thats just silly ...silly as sin
I hate HBO in general. They protect fighters in the 90's to make money of fight from Hamed etc. They setup lame fight with weak fighters, biased refing, and biased commentating that ruins boxing for people. HBO was like the corporate version of how the mob controlled boxing in the 50's-60's.
HBO commentators wipe the asses of their fighters. I actually leave the volume off when I watch HBO fights.
Foreman is dumb and offers no good inside commentaryon boxing anything except "He should go to the body" for the thousandth time.
Merchant is a drunken windbag.
Lampley is a motor mouth that kiss and wipes so much ass he's a designated landfill. I mean Lampleys nose is so far up Gatti's ass he's breathing in shit.
if lampley told it how it was he would be the best blow by blow announcer...the problem is he doesn't tell it how it is.. he tells it how he wants its to be
If u got a problem with commentary, then turn it down. I happen to like Lampley but don't really like Merchant. I don't even care about the presentation though, as long as I can see the fight.
Funny you should say that, because I made a post not so recently saying that HBO commentators talk about Gatti like he was the best thing ever in recent boxing. Lampley is on Gatti's nuts big time.
more on mayweathers nuts tho.. honestly.. i dont like lampley.. sometimes he just talks to talk..
i like george foreman.. he said what exactly what you were thinking and respected the punchers..
larry merchant is slow.. he doesnt bother me too much..

......Since those guys work for HBO, the fighters they play favorites on are naturally the HBO fighters. What do you expect? The network has multi fight deals and tons of money tied up in their fighters. Of course they are going to be slightly biased. It still doesn't keep them from telling it like it is most of the time. If it bothers you that much then turn down the volume, grab a wodden spoon, and give your own commentary.
