    Lampley disgusted me tonight..

    ****er obviously had money riding on the fight.

    He made it a point to make the fans aware of how Margarito hit Cotto while Cotto was down.


    While they were playing the replay, he said, "Watch as Margarito hits Cotto while he's down."

    He was almost implying that the fight should've been stopped because of that.

          He mentioned it as a stab at Cortez/Las Vegas who robbed a KO victory from Soto.

            Zero.
            Lampley's ****riding has never been more evident than in this fight.


            Cotto would land one punch and Lampley would saying, "COTTO LANDS A SERIES OF VICIOUS POWER PUNCHES!"

              Both Lampley and Kellerman seemed biased in favor of Cotto.

              Steward and Lederman were more objective and fair in their comments.

                Horrible commentating by Lampley. The fight was unfolding in Margarito's favor and still he was hesitant in acknowledging it.

                  That's never on the fighter in that instance, it's the refs job to see the fighter taking a knee and to step in, especially since Cotto has shown in previous fights he can get very low sometimes when avoiding punches.

                    Lampley is a biased ******* and it again showed tonight. He wanted the viewers to believe that only Cotto's punches were effective. Even when Cotto was clearly getting hit, Lampley would say nothing.But he would quickly point out when Margarito got hit. He's one of the worst blow by blow commentators in the business and always has been. He shouldn't get paid to be a cheerleader for fighters he prefers.
