Comments Thread For: Larry Merchant Talks Mayweather-Ortiz, Floyd Dispute

[BIGBOXINGFAN]

Larry Merchant hated Roy jones and really hates Floyd Mayweather.
That simple.

When you call a guy who has beat 17 world champions an artful dodger, that just spells H_A_T_E

Emanuel Stewart raised cain about how much bigger Floyd was to Marquez. I mean you couldn't shut this idiot (Emanuel Stewart) up, he just kept going on and on and on talkin bout how much bigger Floyd was to Marquez thru-out their entire fight, but we didn't hear a peep otta uncle Tom bout how much bigger Ortiz was to Floyd. I think the bias is glaring and shamful!

And always remember: When you head butt the BULL you get the horns B!tch

Mike I think was the only fighter to have Larry Merchant petrified. I remember when Mike Tyson came over to get interviewed Larry Merchant bounced until Tyson was out.

Yeah thats cause he knew Mike would really whip that a**. He wasn't gonna just talk

Merchant was actually giving Floyd a compliment before Floyd lost control of himself. Floyd's IQ is just too low to capture it. The jeers in the back ground got too much for lil' Floyd and he snapped- nothing new. A man who is indulged at every turn has a hard time with the concept of self control.

Merchant won't lick Floyd's balls & ass, so Floyd wants someone else- someone young- to interview him.

Between the bells, Floyd can fight and do an amazing job of it. Everywhere else, Floyd is a classless zero.

Floyd used the same lines on Merchant as he did his dad for crying out loud. The man is crass.

First off the boo's came from Mexican's so who gives a f#ck. Second: Larry would lick Floyd's balls & ass if he were a white fighter. Third: Floyd doesn't have to show class to a old white racist n!gger hillbilly like Larry Merchant. Why? cause this is 2011 not 1911

goes to show you that when Floyd does something he only wants the praise. He can't handle someone questioning him r what he does. It's not a question of legal or illegal it's a question of right and wrong. There was still 8 more rounds to see if Mayweather would really beat Ortiz. It was a cheap shot and he did it purposely. It amazes me that a fighter with such skill would stoop that low to win a fight. A fight many of us thought he was winning already. Maybe he felt something in the corner. Maybe he new it would get uglier as the fight went on. Regardless it was a ***** ass move in his part. Also don't bring up the head butt Ortiz had already been penalized for it. I honestly think the headbutt was retaliation for those damn elbows.

Larry has ongoing feuds with too many fighters for the issue to be "everybody else".

If you've been divorced five times, it may be time to look in the mirror.

And, by the way, all the fighters that Larry is feuding with share a major characteristic.

yup.....they're all black and they box as opposed to slug and don't possess ko power

To be frank Merchant is a disgrace to boxing, i dont give a toss if he is politcally correct or not, the man is a racist fool, There are thousands of people who can do his job twice over, and they would come across articulate and better than this old fool who comes across like a racist, bitter fool.

He has been doing this over and over again with different boxers, He need to learn how to be professional and keep his vile opinion to himself when interviewing a boxer who has just finish fighting after 3 months of training camp, the man is low class in my opinion.

i usually like larry.sometimes he's the only reason worth watching hbo.but there was nothing close to racist about what he said.larry is just somebody who has the utmost respect for the sport

[old cat]

Larry is the Man! How many will quote his exchange will Floyd in their signatures?

merchant isn't wifebeater's "yes" man... wifebeater can't take it when someone opposes him and he can't hit them
