Kellerman is also atrocious at post fight interviews. He completely bottled the Mosley-Floyd confrontation, got made to look like a punk. Merchant wouldn't have took that *****.

It will be such a shame to see his new career sacrificed because of his unwillingness to give up his old career.

Yes. Steward should just keep training and stay away from broadcasting. Lampley and Merchant have always been shi*ty in my opinion. Lampley was god awful in May-Ortiz as well.
At the end of the 3rd round, Ortiz rushed in and Floyd popped him with a hard right hand cross, Lampley was going on about how Ortiz landed a punch????? Than, right after that, Floyd hit Ortiz with a quick uppercut as well, and Lampley was like, "Victor Ortiz is quick enough to fight with Floyd Mayweather".
Also at the opening of that round, Ortiz had Floyd cornered by the ropes and rushed in twice, and Floyd popped him with two counter left hooks, and Lampley started by saying "Another left hand lead by Ortiz", than he stopped and Steward sort of put him in his place, and than Lampley was like "Good counter punch". He sucks.
Kellerman, Jones, and than someone else thats new and refreshing would work. Have those 3 all the time.

I was telling my boy the same thing during Sat's telecast. I love Lamps and Merchant, but I think they're time has come and gone. Merchant just seems so "ehhhh" about Boxing these days, then again he is getting pretty old.

HBO broadcasts wouldn't be the same without these guys
they all fuck up occasionally, that's not a crime
would like them to rotate the expert though
Steward, Roy, and maybe someone else can step in each show

Lampley, Merchant and even Steward did a pretty poor job.
Saying Alvarez instead of Vasquez, getting the super batamweight division mixed up with the featherweight and many other errors throughout the broadcast.
They seemed slow to keep up with the action as well and just out of touch. In their day they did a great job, but now they need to be put out to pasture and bring in some fresh blood.
Kellerman, RJJ and another should be the new first choice team and the switch should be made as soon as possible.

They just need to stop sucking off the house fighter. If the HBO team called the superbowl and the patriots were the house fighter, they would have been completely quiet during the Giant's final drive.
Jim is still a great blow by blow man, but he needs to call all the action instead of just what the HBO fighter does.
