    Seriously how unprofessional was Jim Gray last night

    that guy is a complete ****

    the way he spoke to Pascal was **** out of order just because him and his yank network thought Bernard won the fight doesn't make it fact or give him the right to basically say to Pascal's face that he didn't deserve the win and that if it wasn't in Canada things would have been different

    first off bhop was knocked down twice if he wins every other round which he didn't then we end up with 114-112 which is what one of the judges scored it anyway

    it was in Pascal's hometown and he is the champ it's common knowledge as a challenger you to do more to win bhop needed at least a knockdown to make a case for a victory if you ask me

    Marquez was knocked down three times against Pacquiao but earned a draw outboxing him for the rest of the fight pretty much the same thing happened here only difference is it's the American on the short end of the stick and being that Showtime are an American network they made a big thing out of it when it really wasn't

    i have watched alot of boxing and that certainly wasn't the worst decision i have seen in fact i think they got it about right. there was no way that can be classed as a robbery imo

    anybody else think he was out of line the way he spoke to Pascal?

    He's a disgrace. Here he is with Pete Rose:



    Jim Grey deserves a punch in the face.

      Jim Gray is always a jerk and always has been/will be.


      He will ask tough/unpopular questions though, not a lot of journalists do that.

                  Didnt he say to Hopkins that he clearly won? lol, as a interviewer except in extreme circumstances you should not put your own personal view accross. He clearly seemed annoyed that Bhop didnt win, and was having a dig at Pascal for the first knockdown.
