    Why Larry Merchant must go

    Im sick to death of this guy. He is extremely boring and never gives boxers credit for anything. On top of all that he is a racist too, He hates Mayweather, Judah and many others. I've never ever heard him give credit to Mayweather in any of the fights ive seen. But when Pacquiao knocks out the guy Mayweather just beat at a catchweight then he goes wild with excitement. He is incredibly biased and his negativity to anything and everything makes watching boxing seem less credible.

    I hate this guy. He MUST go

    It's not his bias that annoys me it is his voice. It just kills the mood of a good fight. It'd be similar to pulling a hot girl only to find out she sounds like a man.

      Merchant is a boxing commentator who clearly dislikes "boxing"

        His voice is another thing, Not only does his talk way too much but he also drools on and on and on. It's extremely boring. He say's stuff like "Why didnt Mayweather fight Baldomir" and when he beats Baldomir 12 rounds to nothing Merchant still criticises him.

        The reason he is biased is because he hates Mayweather and blasts him for being boring yet he praises Bernard Hopkins to the hills. No disrespect to Hopkins but I find him to be one of the most boring fighters ever. But because I like boxing I will watch some of his fights.

        Merchant is also a *******. He said Pacquiao shouldnt take the test and if the fight doesnt happen it will be because Mayweather didnt want it. Despite the fact that Pacquiao just had to do a blood test and refused.

            by reading the description he sounds like he would be at home being a poster on here. i agree though, its annoying when the announcers focus on the negative side of a fight and ignore the positives. i look forward to the fights all week and the last thing i want to do is listen to somebody ***** and complain all night while im watching it.

              I dont think the other commentators are negative, Lampley can be annoying sometimes but he isnt negative. Merchant criticises everything and praises nothing. Unless it involves Pacquiao or Mosley. His favorites!

                Larry doesn't want to do his job and actually analyze what Mayweather is doing in the ring, in his old age he only wants the easy to interpret slugfest.

                  I think he just hates Mayweather. Has never praised him....ever

                  And Floyd has been on HBO since 98

                    i just meant commentators in general but larry merchant isnt the only one. i like max kellerman but he sometimes likes to dwell on the negative side of things too. i know every fight is not the match-up fans want to see but if hbo is showing the fight on their announcers shouldnt be on air speaking about the fight like its a waste of time.
