    HBO Criticising Marquez for being "Conservative"

    Did someone forget to mention to these bias "Analysts" that Marquez is a counter puncher that his offense relies on his opponents aggressiveness

    There's probably a reason they didn't get Roy Jones to commentate, he would take them all to school again and embarrass them

    HBO is definitely biased. Watch Round 7, Marquez lands some good shots. Then watch the highlight they show of Round 7. Pacquiao footwork! The punch he throws doesn't even land clean.

      Gotta do what you need to do to appease a majority right?
      Not surprised. I remember when I was watching Barker vs Martinez on a brit stream, both were very very very different

          I knew it was going to be biased towards Pacquiao when Stewart said at the start of the fight that Pacquiao was fighting smart and they didnt even throw any punches and were just circling


          lol

                This is why i watch the Primetime/Sky sports broadcast commentating crew instead. The HBO commentating crew are extremely way too biased. Max Kellerman tried to analyzed the fight from a neutral standpoint; but he knows he could lose his job if he doesn't follow the script.

                  This bias is nothing new, its just accepted cause its usually pushed on someone not likable.
