HBO commentators last night

[boxaholic]

Jim Lampley should have been inducted into the hall of fame. Larry Merchant is a legend. That said yesterday they disappointed me in many aspects. Lampley is biased towards any HBO boxer. Yesterday he failed to call out Khans lack of corner. When Maidanas corner called out Marcos's lack of heart after the 9th round they didn't comment on the situation.

This was Larry Merchants worse post fight interview. Instead of questioning Khan on his approach in the fight, his lack of staying within the fight, who does he want to fight next, what does he think of Maidana, where is he gonna fight next he basically asked him 1 question and ended the interview. Then he jumps over to Maidana asks him a couple questions about did he think he won and who he wants next.

For a Fight of the Year type fight HBO commentators did maybe the worst job I have ever seen them do.

And I didn't even bring up the Ortiz vs Peterson call of the fight or lack there of. When you have Ortiz up by so many rounds supposedly and it ends up a majority draw Cmmon Man.

Yeah, WTF was up with the 1 question post fight interview by Merchant? Merchant must go! He gave a f'd up interview for the Katsidis fight, and now this crap!

Merchant is a racist and the sight of Khan made him think of Prince Naz so he left.

As for Maidana, he left the interview, he didn't give a ****.

Never saw the HBO commentary but British ones is damn bias, but I like it that way, **** Argentinaians.

You can basically hear the cogs in Merchant's head turning as he thinks of a question.

The last time Khan was interviewed on HBO after the Mallinagii fight he asked for Maidana and told Bradley and Alexander to fight each other. I can't believe I'm saying this but Max is a better post fight interveiwer than Larry lately.

To Larry Merchant and Max KKKellerman HBO=Hispanic(ie Mexicans) Boxers Out!

To Roy Jones HBO= Help a Brotha Out

Larry Merchant has gotten more Mexiphobic recently because he's going to retire and Jim lampley has eased up to balance out and make the KKKrew less objectionable.

This is the question

Congratulations Amir, you picked Maidana because you wanted to show that you could fight against the strongest puncher in the division and erase the memory of your knockout..do you think you succeeded? Congratulations Amaard.

He made a statement before the question and he brought up his knockout loss considering the fight that just happened and him PICKInG Maidana as if it was Berto picking fighters is the problem. Do you think you succeeded.... He just beat Marcos Maidana the most dangerous puncher at 140...yeah Larry he succeeded.

This is the Maidana multiple question

Tell us and congratulations to you as well. Do you believe that you won this fight in the late rounds? Do you want a rematch? Thank You Thank You

I think they were short on time because the two fights went the distance, thus the abrupt post fight interview.
