I don't know about Lampley but I know Merchant does... Merchant has always had it out for Floyd.

It seems like Lampley and Merchant hate him. Everytime he wins they degrade his performance and then they say he is boring to watch. He is under contract with them so why would they hate him? I think it has to do with his leagal trouble, but this boxing and the guy is great in the ring.

...I think they probably reflect the typical boxing fans feelings. Run a poll with him in it. Ask who is the most hated fighter, and include guys like Roy, Judah, the Klits, and anyone else you like and I bet he would do quite well.

yeah they dont seem to like Mayweather very much, That countdown to gatti mayweather was really biased. It made Gatti look like god. I hope Pretty Boy breaks Gattis face and shuts those HBO Gatti nuthuggers Lampley and Merchant up

I dont often (actually ever) back up the hbo broadcast team, but I guess they have a right to their opion on the character of a fighter. Plus nobady gave Mayweather a script to follow during the interview; or what ever you want to call it.

Its too bad for them because I don't see Floyd slowing down anytime soon..

I remember one time on Best Damn Sports Show Lampley was saying the best P4P fighters and said I won't say Floyd Mayweather.
