Love him or hate him Larry Merchant

[I-WISH-A-MF-WOULD]

It's all good they did grease Wlad's nut bag for the longest until Corrie Sanders smack his ass all over the ring and the HBO crew still wasn't convinced until he got knock the **** around again. Sorry I disagree about Foreman and wish I had a mute button.RJJ is great he damn near predicts what will happen before the outcome.I mean the HBO crew as a whole is good a few bias for HBO fighters but Larry has balls. James Toney damn near bitchslapped Jim Grey in the ring on Showtime and when RJJ whupped his ass Larry was like, 'James how does it feel to get mastered in the ring like that?' WTF that was when Toney was in his prime and those were Larry's exact words? It would be funny to see some fighter lay him out. I doubt he ever laced up a glove in his life.

i really could care less about what they say so long as i find them entertaining, i dont put anymore stock into what they say than i do in what anyone else does. i see what i see and i make my own conclusions. more often than not i dont remember anything they said. if i watch a fight over and over often i will turn the commentary off... and the first time im usually jumpin around around the room yellin "knock that muther****er out"

[STEELHEAD]

boy i've gotten pissed off at merchant a number of times over the years. and foreman has said some of the most hilariously idiotic things .lets see if roy starts slurring his words more.

its got to be hard in front of the camera.

amazingly when merchant is on pedro's radio show every other week the guy is intelligent as hell and is very insightfull.no fooling.

Remember how he ****ed around with Lennox Lewis after his fight with Klitschko? It's not easy to make the HW champ who just won the fight to say "I don't know what you are talking about, Larry" four times. That was funny as hell.

[DiegoFuego]

Merchant is a racist old *****. I hate him. He doesn't nuthug? Ummm...wtf you talking about? He was ALL OVER the Klitschkos' sacks. He's a rude little ****er that's going to get laid out one day. Hopefully by a fighter I hate, so I'll get rid of two at once.

Who the hell is Larry Merchant to call fights boring? He called Judah vs. Corley boring! Ha! He calls any match that isn't all brawling boring. If anybody actually uses some defense, its like he throws off on them.

Merchant talks down to George Foreman a lot. If Foreman weren't such a...nevermind. Merchant also LOVES to give even rounds, which is annoying. Pay attention to the next few HBO fights. I guarantee, if the fights go any rounds he'll have a round even in at least 8 or the next 10 fights.

Why doesn't this dinosaur just die already? It is Max's time to shine.

so true. who the **** scores rounds even?

[Calabrese]

I've scored even rounds before. Alot of rounds are even when the caliber of opponents is very equal.

yeah that was ****in hilarious...... he musta been up to something.

thats one reason i like larry merchant, in an era of sports interview filled with loaded questions and "whats your favorite car ?" kinda question its cool to see larry merchant put someone on the spot here and there, even if it sometimes a little off base

[Hisoka]

I never really liked the guy, but I'm so used to him. He has both good and bad moments.

[Mr. David]

While some of Merchant's tangents or relations are forced or contrived, generally he's dead on with his observations. That he limits his in-fight comments shows that he usually wants what he says to be both pertinent and prudent. When Lampley was off air (I think it was for Taylor-Edouard and Hopkins-Eastman) in February, Merchant's sparse play-by-play was magnificently in the style of old-school newsreel.

Lmao I like merchant that guy is a character.

But ya he nuthugs big time!!! His favorite is manny pacquiao the guy even learned some filipino to tell manny during an intereview, I never seen him speaking spanish to erik morales.

You always hear merchant say pacquiao is a STAR! lmao its funny didnt merchant have manny pacquiao winning or scoring the morales fight a draw?
