    HBO announcers seem to be carrying an agenda in fights.

    Martinez completely neutralized Pavlik for the first 4 rounds, then in the middle rounds were more competitive, but close and thet were acting as if Pavlik was winning the rounds clearly.

    He won the 8th round, but you would've sworn he lost it from the announcing. Martinez had to cut, bloody, and come with waves of combinations to change the tide of the biased calling. That type of bias **** is terrible in close rounds.

    The way the began calling the Martinez-Williams II fight, it was as if they already wanted to sway public perception to Williams if the fight turned out to be a close decision. As if they had to make it up to Haymon for not being biased toward Williams in the first fight.

      Dude loves him some Paul Williams. When he said it was a right, I was like uh.....maybe the punch crushed the right side of Paul's face but it wasn't a right. He was likely going through a rough moment since his hero was going to sleep.

            Frank Maloney tells a story that when he was Lewis' promoter they all went to dinner after one of Lennoxs' fights, Lennox and his entourage were at one table and Frank, his wife, a couple of pals and Steward were at another. Steward proceeds to browse the menu, order **** loads of food at top $ and a couple of bottles of the finest champagne the house had to offer.

            He then eats the food, polishes off most of the champagne, gets up and leaves and leaves poor Frank to foot the bill. LOL

              I think some1 during the commentary has to kinda give the "other guy" some props. Theres too much money being bet on both sides that fans dont wanna hear a one sided commentary during the entire fight. Does that mean he was right? Absolutly not. He said Margarito wasnt being dominated by Pacquiao in the first few rounds. He was wrong, after the first round it was obvious that Pacquiao has the speed and gameplan to beat Margarito easy. Also alot of ppl lost big money on Pwill so he probably just wanted to make them feel alittle better.

                I find Steward Annoying/Hilarious

                He does this in every fight. There will be like 2:35 left in the 1st round and Steward will be like "Well Williams is doing everything right at the moment hes fighting a really good fight".

                Dude relax its 25 seconds into the god damn fight.

                  I wasn't even 30. It was barely 15 seconds in the fight. And it was ****** eitherway. Martinez was the one neutralizing Williams by fighting on the inside, not the other way around.

                    Steward also said Pavlik was fighting the "perfect fight" during the first four rounds of Pavlik/Martinez, which were all clearly Martinez rounds.

                    Pavlik was HBOs boy too. Maybe he just calls the fight for whoever Greenberg wants to win.
