Larry Merchant is a ****

[BBFM]

Is it me or does he discriminate on certain fighters? I was hoping for a ceiling light to break and fall on his to send him to early retirement I think hes about as done as lederman <-- no one beleives him or his cards.

I hate Larry Merchant. He p***es me off. Honestly the way he hates on so many fighters really gets to me. I loved when he and George used to fight. That was funny. As for Lederman, i dont mind him. I sometimes agree with his scoring, they are usually reasonably accurate.

I think that is the real reason why George Foreman left HBO. He couldn't stand Larry Merchant.

[AP6]

i miss George, he was my favorite out of all the commentators. Larry Merchant is a ****** druken loser and should be fired, he should have been fired a long time ago.

Or maybe he just wanted more money and HBO wasn't willing to do that. In any case Larry Merchant stays, he's good.

Larry says what he wants, I dont think there's anything wrong with it. The fact that there's so many threads about him shows hes doing his job well, he's getting attention.

I could tell Larry didnt give a damn about Vargas, anybody could see that.

Larry is the man.

Absolutely. How many bull**** "Larry sucks...Larry's old...Larry's a drunk...Larry's a racist...Larry is senile threads must we take? Is it like a requirement for new posters to come on and hate on HBO's announce team?

It's the cool thing to do, I could really rip on the announcers of showtime if I wanted to. Bottle up Lampley/Merchant/Steward/Leonard/Jones/Foreman all into one and it doesnt match the size of the ******* of Jim Gray on Showtime.

One thing that people need to forget is that Larry is a throwback type of guy and still thinks it is the early 60-70s. But Larry likes guys who put their heart and guts into it and a lot of fighters dont show that courage. Larry also likes it when the best fight the best, prime example Pacman vs Morales Larry was cool the whole way through the fight and interviews because he respects them.

They are true to the game and so is Larry.
