NEW HBO CREW please

score cards were bad, and every clinch was blamed on mayweather by the crew. Manny even made it seem like mayweather was being outclassed in the early rounds.
teddy atlas just talked about his scoreing and he had it like the judges.
I have never seen them try to discredit a fighter like they did floyd.
Manny said he hasnt seen floyd do this bad in the early rounds, After the Knockdown he says its floyds best performance in his carrere

Hypocrites then. Didn't listen to HBO commentators, so I don't know what they said.
But Mayweather always seemed calm, collected and never in danger, the first rounds included.
I wanted Hatton to win, but I had to smile in the second round when I realized Mayweather was just zooming in to find his comfort zone and timing.
Pure master boxer that man.

did you see de la hoya going nutz when cortez broke them apart in the second, im a big oscar fan but he needs to sit his ass down

Yeah, the HBO team was absolutely terrible tonight. There was NO excitement from them leading up to, and during, the knockout. They all WANTED Hatton to win and didn't hide that fact.

Isnt the job of an announcer to report the fight and try to make the watcher intrested even if the fight is not that great?? They just sat there and talked about how bored they were.
i forgot exact quote but jim kind of admitted he wasnt watching rounds

No, didn't see it. Watched it on skysport I think, with british commentators.
They were all over Hatton in the first 5 rounds, then gradually began to give Floyd props when he started dominating.

Imagine Hatton-DLH build-up.. Would be boring as hell.

Merchant is something else. Around the 9th round of the Lacy-Manfredo fight he says that he hasn't been paying attention to the fight. Then at the end of the fight he says that he thinks Manfredo won more rounds. Uh, how would you know if you didn't pay attention to the fight? I'm starting to think he doesn't like Black fighters.

[moy22487]

i wonder if HBO would pay attention of a pettition from one of the biggest boxing sites

Manny has been discrediting floyd for a LOOOONG time now. And its completely unwarranted and completely out of line if u ask me

You can always discredit a fighter and all his skills and flaws. Floyd too.
He doesn't consistently use his jab to set up anything, he leaps in with lead rights and left hooks, he keeps his chin high when he punches etc.
But what does it matter when it's the results that counts?

As a great trainer, Manny will always be able to find errors in any fighter, but he should learn to balance his analysis with something positive too. Only then will he become someone worth listening too.
