It's clear that since Pacquiao got KO'd Jim Lampley hasn't been the same.

Merchant I can't stand for those statements and Lampley was throwing it out there as well. I remember Lampley even putting excuses on the table for Pacquiao throughout the fight. Shameful ! and yes he was sad and getting all choked up Jmm knocked out Pacquiao
    Lampley was already pointing out the obvious during the weigh ins almost everyone was suspect of Marquez new body, but he should have kept those opinions to himself and been professional and taken the unbiased stance.

    a lot of the HBO guys show favorites unlike Showtime which is professional they dont take sides. Lampley should have just kept his opinions to himself but the guy can't.

    Lampley and Merchant were diehard Pac Fanatics, go look up that video when Larry first saw Pacquiao and Lampley they were both sold on him, saying who is this guy I would love to see him again like he was an instant star.

    George Foreman became a Pac fan later on, imagine if Foreman was still working with HBO? Wow that would be a super duper biased broadcast three Pac fans they would be praising the crap out of Pacquiao and the poor opponent even if he was doing good would be torn to shreds.

    remember Lampley's **** **** **** comment lol, talk about biased man. haahahahaah he was really about to have an ******n

    HBO = emotional commentators who show favoritism
    Showtime = more professional unbiased commentary, except for Al Bernsteins slip up during the Mares fight where he was hating hard on Mares.

        Beautiful stuff right there, I agree HBO are full of it, They are biased with every Hbo fighter. I remember the **** **** lol he is just too passionate and not professional enough, Like you pointed out ,he should be keep those opinions and comments to himself ,they only hurt a fighters image and whatever Lampley or HBO says, the Pacquiao fans believe and non casual fans .. Hbo is a disgrace along with Lampley and Merchant.

        I remember watching the fights on mute sometimes and having music in the backround because of the favoritism Lampley displayed.

        On another note I wish the Showtime crew would scoop up Teddy Atlas I think he's legit and not too biased

          The only problem with Teddy is he is a big time hater lol, but I love listening to his fight break downs and commentary, I love his passion when the fight is a robbery he really goes off on the judges.

            The hardest blow Marquez landed that night was directly to Lampleys heart.

            Pacquiao was up and joking about the KO later that day, Lampley is still bitter after all this time.

              Also Lampley was making fun of Floyd for asking for drug testing, than all of a sudden when Pacman got KO his opinion changed and he wants strict testing lol, George Foreman is another Pac fan, he said that Floyd should just fight Pac with no tests just basic blood test for diseases, than when Pac got KO he said man comeback manny that fight was very very strange, you can tell Foreman was probably thinking the same thing about the steroids.

              That's the last time I watched that new show he has, the bias was incredible trying to discredit Marquez.

                LOL funny but true. Lampley is one of the most biased and harcore fanatics in sports, he is like Skip Bayless but not a TROLL, he is serious.

                  who you were rooting for that night?
                  Pacquiao obviously. I never knew I liked Pacquiao that much till that night.

                  I officially labeled myself a Pact@rd that night.
