HBO commentating sucks !!!

i think i would do better .. no way dude I would be great. Id take Lampley's job, and do the play by play. I could also do Merchant's job, i know many a interesting boxing tidbit that could add to the color commentary.

they were defitnetly on MABs ballsack. Manny was whining like a little bitch at the end though. I wanted to hit mute on that shit it was terrible.

i think i would do better ..

I should be an announcer for HBO.

it was a KD it was a KD it was a KD ,, i was disgusted by that , how about he hit him when he was down , he hit him when he was down !! , he hit him when he was down !!!

Me too I actually like the HBO crew. But i understand what you guys are saying, they were definitely biased toward Barrera. I thought Marquez was landing the cleaner punches and wasn't getting credit for it fromt Lamps & company. I still like them though maybe because I've been watching them since i was young.

Yeah i find myself getting pissed at Lamps and Merchant, but then I wonder why when I watch older fights. they are the same then too. But Foreman was there for comedic releif. It reminds me of Lennox fucking guys name pronounciations. Its funny/annoying and distracts from the biased commentary. Teddy is still okay, Papa, Max, Shobox, Al, and like threadstarter said Manny. Roy jones was okay too (and he was on Married with children last night, HA!)

Showtime tells it like it is. Lampley was biased as hell, but Merchant wasnt.

when ever i watch boxing on HBO and SHOWTIME, i turn off the volume. You wanna see bad commentating, watch Winky-Taylor, Winky blocked most of the Taylor's punches and Lampley called them like they connected. I hate Lampley, I hope HBO could get someone like Joe Tessitore from ESPN.

How do you know the only one good at sucking dick is Manny Steward? LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL THAT WAS A GOOD ONE

Like usual,Steward seemed the only truly neutral one.Lederman irritates me the most though.His scoring is getting increasingly worse and worse.He puts too much emphasize on unaffective agression.

I don't know if anyone caught the Mormeck/Bell fight on FSN but you want to talk about horrible annoucing......well that was it.I don't think I have ever watched a boxing telecast with worse announcing in my life.

i too was disgusted with the commentary.....marquez was landing the cleaner punches throughout the fight but listening to them it was like barrera was putting on a clinic.....remember lampley screaming "that was a knockdown" man i thought he was going to jump in there and beat the crap out of nady......they never brought up the fact that barrera sucker punched marquez while he was down until after 2 rounds later after replays clearly showed it.......from now on im going with the spanish crew on hbo fights....lampley is to damn biased........

Lampley is a cheerleader. You should see the Oscar/Whitaker fight. When Oscar was hitting the air, Lampley called them like they connected.

THANK YOU ......THEM BITCHES WERE CALLING THE FIGHT ALL WRONG IF MARQUEZ HAD GOTTEN ANOTHER BAD DECISION I WOULD HAVE HAD TO BANG MY HEAD THROUGH ONE OF MY WALLS..............THOSES GUYS WERE ALL ON MARCOS BALLS ...... yes well i think the thing is, the commentators are there to commentate for ppl who don't really know much about boxing..........and thats why they can get away with their ballsucking commentating.... when it comes to the real boxing fans, such as us who have half an idea, we can damn right see/hear how fked up they are... they are just there to brainwash the general public on behalf of HBO

lol , i ment hes the better commentator
