Why are HBO commentators and judges mesmerized by Williams?

[apokalips]

I couldn't believe they gave the first rd to P Will, but Lederman at least had sense

[Pacquiao'd]

because they suck ****

[bestboxingonly]

Because he was the next best thing until that left crossed.

[Pacquiao'd]

They love hyping up pressure fighters. Not just Williams. Go listen to the PAC vs marg. Manny was all on marg d1ck.

so tru. they said that pac is the most accurate puncher in the sport. bwahahahaha

Just in the round and a half that last night's fight lasted, I kept hearing how Williams was doing all the right things and actually winning the fight.

pwill probably took the first round. he was a lot busier

This concerns me from a judging standpoint. No, he was not winning. Just like against Martinez the first time and against Cintron, he was throwing a ton of punches without much steam on them and somehow winning the fight.

1) he lost to cintron the first time
2) s-mart/pwill I was a close fight

Truth is in all three fights, he was leaving himself open a lot and getting tagged with the better, cleaner, and more powerful punches.

nah.

cintron probably doesn't punch as hard as s-mart or pwill.

s-mart didn't put as much mustard in his punches in the first fight... probably cause he only had 2 weeks notice to fight pwill and was weary of his stamina.

There was a reason the crowd was erupting for every Martinez shot. He was putting his weight in his punches and landing the much more effective punches.

definitely in the rematch, this was the case.

A lot of people may have had Williams winning at the time of the stoppage, but to me that is just not right. How can you be winning just by scoring a lot of do nothing punches, while the other guy is landing great shots.

if you get hit with a ***** load of arm punches it's about as much damage as a few great shots. what martinez did was increase his output instead of moving like in the first fight.

Even Manny Steward thought he was winning and that the fight was going his way.

there was only 1 round to really judge and pwill probably won it.

Am I blind? Or are people just mesmerized by the amount of punches Williams throws?

nobody likes potshotters. they're boring.

HBO commentators are paid to hype up guys. They obviously thought Williams would win. They do this for multiple HBO fighters who they want to be stars. Daniel Jacobs, Andre Berto, Manny Pacquiao etcetc.

you forgot wifebeater jr.

Williams lost every second of every round.

nah, pwill was doing fine in the 1st round. martinez didn't increase his output until the 2nd round

HBO has their guys... like Berto, Pavlik, Judah, Arreola that they just decide to get behind. God knows why.

cause these guys are supposed to be good.

Steward also was talking about how good Pavlik was doing in the early rounds against Martinez. yeah **** right, he lost all the early rounds.

pavlik wasn't getting whitewashed. he had moderate success until he got cut.

Sergio was bombing Paul's body in the first round and hit him with some hard head shots. Paul was going Calzaghe on Sergio though. I scored the first 10-10

10-9 is how you're supposed to score a round.

When listening to HBO's commentators, it's like listening to a Sport's team playing at home. They don't even try to hide who they are rooting for.
