Kiss my ass Larry Merchant

[PittyPat]

Merchant sounded totally off during that broadcast. One minute he's impassioned over nothing (repeatedly crying over brave Yordan not quitting), and the next he's stuttering his words and taking forever to complete 2 syllables of a sentence.

I'm no fan of Kellerman, but at least he can keep talking without sounding like an Alzheimer's sufferer.

the line of the night from Larry was that Manny, Mosley and Jr. wasn't losing any sleep watchin' Berto.... that was one of the many shots he threw at Berto!!

that **** was hilarious forgot about that one

[SteveJarvey]

*****s feeling bitter and hostile for all people that support Pac no matter who they are.

[M.I Truth ?]

He might've been right but you can tell by his commentating that he's starting to lose it. Instead of commentating all he does is complain and sound more of a senile fanatic than an actual boxing analyst.

This. And he picks and chooses witch fighter to **** on and witch to praise just based on bias. Kellerman genuinely at least comes across as being excited about the sport.

Bro, they've been apart (not a fan) of Boxing probably longer than you've known about Boxing itself. I think they're allowed to express their opinions such as Charles Barkley does heavily on TNT about Teams and Players be it negative or positive. They don't always have to be 100% unbiased, and truthfully...Larry wasn't off on anything he said. I was physically there and it wasn't really packed at all. He made a comment in relation to a Pac vs Berto fight and what both drew. I mean, do we need "YES MEN" behind the mic too? LOL

It's not that serious, really...

The bold means absolutely nothing. Just because a person is older and been around longer doesn't always mean they know more. I hate when people say **** like that. Charles Barkley is a living legend that actually "PLAYED AND DOMINATED" in the sport he is talking about. Merchant and Lampley have done nothing but sit on the sideline and talk about what other people are doing. So comparing what Barkley says about baskeball to what Merchant and Lampley say about boxing is a horrible comparison even though I get what you trying to get accross. Commentating is supposed to be unbiased and true. I never said what Merchant stated about the size of the crowd as untrue but the fact still remains that the size of the crowd in any fight has no bearing on how good or a bad a fight is. So the size of a crowd is not worth talking about. Where did the yes men comment come from? Nothing I said was about commentators always agreeing but why always be negative and why always have Lampley there who calls the fight wrong and shows a unheard bias for certain fighters as a commetator? **** makes no sense.

Of course this **** ain't serious cause it don't interfere with how I take care of mine.

That, and perpetually gargling on the nuts of Michael Katsidis.

So was he wrong? That was a **** turnout considering it was for a good cause.

Point is....it's not that big of deal, you'll be able to sleep at night.

If you don't know then I don't know who could help you bro.Can you name me a better guy who called the action for as long as he did?

Even though I only heard him on replays and don't know if he didn't longer but Howard Cossell is leagues way better than Merchant. I never liked Merchant or Lampley so I don't agree. Merchant has had his moments but longevity is not what makes you great. Just because he is the person I grew up hearing on HBO broadcasts doesn't mean I have to like it. I didn't say that because you or anybody else stated anything even close to me having to like Merchant. I used to like **** Vitale now I can't stand him and I used to hate Bill Walton now I miss him and wish he could get back on the air.

Of course I will
