Larry Merchant: We Are Not Here To See YOU!!!

:lol1: Merchant is the king of HBO Boxing, no one will ever take his place.

Merchant call is always on target always stood up to boxer commentators and questioned them he gets in a few funny lines in every fight Merchant is the best announcer

Larry is God.

Lost in the mix of the fight and all the moments. From Manny stepping it up to a full "OH My Gauuuud" to Larry's outright distain for the referee when he said something to the effect of "He may be interjecting himself to much here, We are not here to see you". Larry hasn't went in like that for a long time, the interview with Ortiz was great too at some point Larry lost his patience and just says Yeah...and moves on he is pure *******, I love that man for that. HBO came through on all fronts with this fight. sorry to bust your bubble but larry > max

I thought the ref was doing fine when he said that. Terrible point deduction though

Kenny Bayless once said: "When you ref a great fight, stay out of the way and let the fighters fight". Just as he did in the third Barrera-Morales fight.

I remember a fight where he said something similar about Vic Drakulich .

I loved that comment...awesome :D

Refs have taken a lot of Ls in recent weeks with all the upsets, you can see so many officiating agendas so clearly when the underdog does well.
