    Jim Ledderman and Jim Lampley.....

    are the most shamefully partial and biased announcers in boxing. Have you ever seen the way they will pump up the HBO house fighter even when that fighter is clearly getting his as kicked?

    The fights that demonstrate this the best are Cotto/Mosley, Mayweather/Hatton, Chavez/Whitaker 1 and Sturm/Dela Hoya. Go back and watch the fights and listen to the bull**** that comes out of their mouths. And then watch the fights with the sound off. And you will see for yourself clear as day who is getting their ass kicked and how blatantly try to influence the opinions of the viewers. These two have NO class.

        even the other night i watched boxing they said something like....shane mosley who gave us a tremendous performance against Miguel Cotto" when shanes name came up. I would have swore Mosley won had i not known.

        and how bout after Cotto-Mosley, they say and now is Kellerman with the loser. and Kellerman says thats not what i want to hear or how i want it, something like that, but thats how it is.

        i hate them as$holes. Shotime has worse matches, better announcers.

              It's alright, not even Foreman knew Lederman's first name back in 2000 (watch the Jones-Hall fight), and he'd worked on HBO for years.

                he was talking about Floyd Mayweather. Emmanuel was complaining how how Floyd was considered the Camp even though he has not faced the best out of the division and said something like, "Max can still consider him the champ all he wants, but blah blah blah" and thats when Max said, "Its not what I want, Its how it is".

                But back to the topic, there is no other ring announces I would rather have call a fight when Im watching than Jim Lampley. I love how he gets excited and at times almost poetic. Of course he will be biased at times but his excitement adds to the drama of the fight.

                  See at least Lederman lets it be known that he's 100% for the effective agressor. So we can have an idea of how his card would look like. He has a few off nights, the Barrera/JMM fight being one of them.
