PBF, Respected more by British Commentators than American HBO

[Left2body]

I just rewatched the fight and saw an English commentary version to the fight and it was clear they were more linient, respectful and gave PBF more credit throughout the fight than Lampley and company did.

They were also a more exciting blow by blow commentary. I'm way more of a Cotto, Corrales and the lower weights fan but its clear that PBF really gets the **** end of the stick by HBO. Hell they even gave PBF more rounds in there scoring.

HBO is extremely biased against guys like Floyd.

They have rounds 4-10 in different video's.

The commentary was always straight down the line. At the beginning of the fight I was hyped, I gave Ricky the first round because I was so keen for him to do it. But Jim Watt straight away calls it a Floyd round 'sharper, crisper more accurate punching.'

He said 'sharper,crisper, more accurate punching' an awful lot. It's still ringing in my ears.

What a great 10th round, what a great fight.
Sky has shown to be less biased then HBO, and props to them for that.
What a left hook!

Jim Watt blasted referee Joe Cortez for his "deplorable" performance in Undefeated

Its just HBO commentators that have it out for PBF or MM. If you look at ESPN or Sports Illustrated or any other sports reporting site all of them gave PBF respect and had MM winning comfortably, universally somwhere between 6rds-8rds for Mayweather and 2-3rds for Hatton.

I'm not a big conspiracy guy but its now clear to me that the HBO crew of Lampley, Merchant Steward and Ledderman have something against Mayweather.

I mean Ledderman was giving Hatton rounds because Floyd didn't have enough Latteral movement even if he clearly out landed hatton with not just more punches but also the cleaner punches.

The moment he gave Hatton the first I knew exactly how HBO would allow the fight to playout from a commentary standpoint. I don't know what their agenda is but I certainly don't appreciate it.
