Comments Thread For: Lederman: Mayweather's Rant To Merchant a Disgrace

[Big Lou]

HBO Should Clean House

HBO should fire almost everyone on their staff. They are out of control and ruining boxing. They set the tone with thier checkbook. Floyd attacked Larry after years of abuse. Racially biased abuse at that. Larry is an old racist that still remembers when he could have someone like Floyd strung up for looking him in the eye, and he can't stand to see a black man with that kind of freedom. Say what you will about playing the race card, but it couldn't be played if wasn't kept in the deck by folks like Larry.

Larry is an azzhole, how you gone ask Floyd questions about the fight right after the fight?! Mutha****a talkin bout "you had the fight under control"...the nerve of that old geezer!

You see, what people fail to realize is that when Floyd was masturbating to reruns of Fat Albert and the Gang Lederman and Merchant were already established pioneers to the sport of boxing.

So what does Larry/Lederman know about boxing? That it takes a sucker to throw a sucker punch!!!!

mayweather's a great boxer, but he's pretty much scum in everything else. money can't buy you class, his attitude, along with his fake ass entourage are perfect examples of it.

Mayweather is a scum and a douche bag, believe it or not karma will get him in the end.

i've been waiting a decade to hear someone put that bitter old *** in his place.

settle down quannel x. Do you know how long larry has been in the game? Yea, because floyd is the first successful black boxer that larry has been involved in all the years he's been in the business.

When all else fails, bring up the race card.

Floyd flipped out because the crowd was booing & he knew that larry asks pointed questions and the inevitable pac question was coming. He took his anger out on merchant. Not only did floyd made himself look bad with the cheap shot sucker punch, he made himself look like a ****** cliche with his interview with larry.

Good job floyd.

Dat's coz he's rich, biaatch!! Floyd's gotta show them grunts what they fightin fo!!!

Money is out of topic and irrelevant for this thread. Whether you're rich or poor you can't do that to an octogenarian.

Your parents should be put in jail for raising a moron like you.

If he was just some limp-wristed, suck up company man for HBO, "Unofficial Fight Judge" Harold Lederman would keep his mouth shut about Floyd Mayweather Jr's acidic verbal attack in a post fight interview with 80-year-old HBO analyst Larry Merchant, which took place following Floyd's KO win over Victor Ortiz on Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

No disgrace there.
If you are an Octogenarian then behave like one.
Merchant didnt hide what he wanted to do,he wanted to talk about Pacquiao he claims.He has already heard what Mayweather wants,a fair playing field yet he never addresses that issue.
Merchant is a racist and is very biased against black fighters in general and Mayweather in particular.

I don`t care what all you damn racist say about Merchant if money got ****** on me I would have said the same thing.

That phrase was priceless "If I were 50 years younger I would kick your ass",and I`m still laughing my ass of.

and then he said "I dont if I would but i would`ve tried".hahahaha.Larry Merchant made my night after that cheap shot from Floyd.

[uoykcuf]

That **** was funny. Man, I hope Mayweather flips out on Merchant more often. Its hilarious to see them go at it like that.

[reeflegend]

I thought Pacquiao fought Marquez first....TWICE, @ their natural weight class. Cotto and Margarito too.... guys who Floyd ducked !!

Stop talking about Cotto and Margartio dude...it's not even an arguement, they weren't that good when Floyd was "ducking" them. And they didn't get better with age. They were like prize fighters in the ring, not even close to the level of Floyd. All these guys were all pooled together Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Mosley....let's be reall....Entertaining..yes...but good fighters no way...
