      Get rid of Merchant and Lederman, they are way past their prime and turned into haters.

      I used to love watching HBO and would only watch HBO streams of their events, but lately I noticed Showtime is catching up and sometimes the UK Commentators do a better job doing the HBO events. UK commentators still horrible homers for their own fighters but still.

      also, what was up with Julie Ledermans scorecard? She's almost as bad as her father. They need to go

        There are only few fans on here that sugarcoats and justified HBO's commentators biased agendas, but almost everyone else on here are starting to see their true colors.

              It was so obvious what the HBO was doing, putting down Maravilla during the fight and then protecting HBO's cash cow JCJJr but saying Jr. is too big to fight Maravilla and the fight will never happen and also saying Maravilla should go up in weight to fight Ward instead of finding a fight with Maravilla.

              HBO's agenda is clear as day.



              On which commentators I like and dislike:

              On the Showtime side:

              I like; Al Bernstein, Steve Farhood, and Antonio Tarver.

              Hate/fire: Gus Johnson


              On the HBO side:

              I like; Max Kellerman, Roy Jones Jr. and Bob Papa

              Hate/fire: Emanuel Steward

              Needs to retire/move on: Jim Lampley, Larry Merchant, and Harold Lederman.
