Funniest Thing The HBO Crew Has Said?

[El Angel]

"So despite the fact that Emmanuel is telling us over and over that it's Clottey's fight, Cotto has a lead on Harold Lederman's scorecard." -Jim Lampley

Manny Steward just laughs at him.

I thought it was funny. They seemed to be arguing the entire fight.

[Slyboots]

I recall Lampley saying "we promised you violence, and we brought you violence."

[P.WILL]

these guys have upper bodies like supermiddleweights

-foreman on vargas/de la hoya

[CrackYourJaw]

LOL whenever Merchant says "man love."

If you listen to HBO commentary, they often verbally fight with eachother in subliminal ways. Listen to Foreman and Lampley go at it during Jones/Ruiz and Emanuel and Lampley go at it in the latter part of De La Hoya/Mayweather. It happens in many other fights very often. Anway:

"De La Hoya has put a lot of time in staying in shape, look at his body"
Foreman

[P.WILL]

that tells you a fighter is going to be good, when he starts off with a good left jab, it could be the beginning of a good career

foreman on 19 year old mayweather

not funny but he hit it on the head

[daggum]

"you shuffle your feet i'll hit you!"

[jose23mex]

This whole video is funny lol

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

When Joe Mesi knocked out "Touch of Sleep" Williamson in one round, Jim Lampley said "well, he got touched, and he slept."

[Toney Loc]

"The whale has been harpooned"

"He might've had a six-pack on his stomach but he didn't have a six-pack on his chin."
