    Whats up with the so called HBO Boxing Xperts?

    Are Bert Sugar, Letterman, Max, Manny, Larry, and Jim paid to act like they know boxing?

      Because they do know about the sport. Especially Steward & Sugars.

        The only one from the group that know anything is Harold Letterman period. Sugar thinks Pacman is an all time great-R U serious? WTF?

          Their opinions aren't the gospel. Nobody knows everything. But they've followed the sport for years and get paid to voice their thoughts. I'm certain they've been following boxing longer than 99% of the blokes here have been alive.

            He said Pacquiao is on the cusp of being an all time great. I just watched that countdown tonight where he said it. And Pacquiao has quite the legacy, his place in history is sealed.

              Bert Sugar will forget more about boxing then TS could ever learn.

                They all know boxing. I think the least knowageable is Bob Papa though. He knows the sport, but I think he has the least knowledge.

                  Only one who gets me shaking my head is Lampley, but he's decent as a play by play despite his frequent miscalls on punches.

                  Larry Merchant is GOAT.

                  Also, Pacman IS an all time great, look at his credentials. There really isn't any dis*****g it.
