    I second that

    Larry merchant always leaves me feeling like he looks down on fighters, and i wont go as far as to say its racial which has been suggested numerous times in the past by many fighters (hopkins, wright, mayweather, etc) but his aggressive interviewing tactics can make him hit or miss in regards to the way he leaves the sincere boxing fan feeling after it has concluded.

      Or what about when he said "Shane Mosley, I love you" after he KO'd Mayorga.

      Very racial indeed.

      Anyways, Floyd did do a number on Mosley.

      That comment didn't bother me.

          I don't think he means to be disrespectful he just talks in the no BS way like he does in commentary.

                  Obviously you didn't read, or comprehend my post, so clarification isn't really necessary but will be granted. I referenced a couple of current fighters views on the man of topic, Mr. Merchant, which came after i stated that i wouldn't go as far to cosign their opinions of him in that light.

                    yeah he likes to cut through the flannel and get to the point (good thing too, because the words take time coming out)
