PBF, Respected more by British Commentators than American HBO

[BROOKLYN CESAR]

**** HBO they hate floyd and im glad they arent the only ones with coverage of fights!!!

[medium-deek]

I was listening to the live radio stream on thesun.co.uk and they made it sound like Mayweather was destroying Hatton throughout the entire fight.

Spot on. I listened to BBC Radio 5 live coverage and the impression I got was that Floyd was winning hands down. Having watched it on video twice now, this is not the case.

[yeahwhatever]

I really wish they brought back Foreman, he was funny and was much more impartial than Merchant, Steward or Lampley. Hell, someone just pointed out and I just noticed that Merchant never looks PBF square in the face when he interviews him but he looks almost everyone else in the face.

I feel ya there...I always liked Big George...very affable...pleasant guy.

I've noticed also Merchant never looks at Floyd in the eyes and only ever asks him why he isn't fighting some other fighter. There is never anything complimentary in any of his PBF post fight interviews. If he can't put his bias aside they should get someone else to do the interviews.
