    I have a solution for HBO and Larry Merchant

    Merchant should only call fights for guys like Pacquiao and Margarito since he only likes an aggressive offensive style with no regards to defense. If Merchant only likes watching glorified bar fights so be it, he is entitled to like whatever he wants. However, it would be in everybody's best interest for Larry to never call fights for guys like Mayweather, Hopkins, or even a guy like Ward again. This way nobody has to hear his constant b1tching and complaining anymore. Personally, I think Larry is a sorry excuse for a commentator and I will put the TV on mute anytime he's ever calling a fight.

    co-sign!!! If you're gonna call fights for HBO you can't be that bias and should be able to appreciate all styles. I love Jim Lampley, but can't stand Larry. It's not just is constant crying, it's his long drawn out monologues that go nowhere. I can see how some people like him. It's because it's easy to like someone who likes te same fighters you do, but not everyone feels that way.

    The only time I like hearing Larry is when Roy Jones is owning him.

    HBO should replace Larry with Roy.

      I think Merchant should have done the Klitschko-Adamek fight, since Kellerman hates Europeans.

      And Kellerman should have worked the Mayweather fight, since he's always loved Floyd so much.

            I got a better solution to the problem, in order for Floyd to stop his tantrums in front of the camera. How about letting Roger Mayweather and 50 cent do the commentating and Leonard Ellerbe will be doing the blow by blow. While Ms. Jackson as the ring girl and Mayweather Sr doing the unofficial score card. I bet you Floyd won’t get piss off again.

                    Sr's too biased. Sr had Floyd losing his fight with De la Hoya.
