HBO Commentating was a mess last night

[Stoppage]

I don't know if it was just me, but Kellerman seemed more relaxed and at ease at commentating. Except for the fighter mess-ups, he sounded good.

Zsolt Erdei is the lineal champ at LHW.

The Ring Magazine belt at 175 is vacant to my knowledge.

Chad Johnson, Lucian Bute a cruiserweight, Zsolt Erdei the lineal light heavyweight champion.......

agreed.

Jim Lampley is slowly but surely losing it.

I counted like 5x where he missed pronounced a word or messed up reading something.

i didnt like lampley discrediting gabriel campilo just cause lampley doesnt know about him he cant call him a nobody he is still a champion

[Mr. Philadel]

they corrected themselve at some points.

still was a shame that they made THOSE errors......I think they was drunk!!.....celebrating the fact that there is a NEW HW champ that an American fighter has a chance of beating!!

Erdei is the lineal champion though. He moved up to cruiser for his next fight so they confused him with Bute.

Here is the article on it.

The Ring champion isn't always the lineal champ.

Zsolt Erdei has been the lineal champ for quite some time.

Ring Magazine does have it vacant but Zsolt Erdei is still the lineal champion. He won it from Julio Gonzalez, who won it from Darisz M, who won from Virgil Hill. Who claimed the lineal title from a box off with Henry Maske.

Ring Magazine also has the Flyweight title vacant. But, Daisuke Naito is the lineal Flyweight champion.

i know what you mean.. I thought the first round was decently close between dawson/johnson, but they were talking like it was the biggest round ever won by somebody.

I guarantee HBO tells them to do that, so it makes there Boy Dawson look better.

I've been reading that Naito's next fight with Kameda is going to be huge in Japan. I'm going to have to find a stream.

I hope Naito wins. If he wins wins, we get to see Naito fight Ponsaklek for a FIFTH time. Sounds crazy, doesn't it?
