    Yeah foreman loved guys with big power. His commentary was terrible in that fight, talking about how Trinidad could KO hopkins at any moment still late in the fight. Ditto for hamed-barrera. Sorry but Hopkins and barrera are not moorer and arent getting stopped late in fights they were wide ahead.

          Kellerman- Any slick black boxer. Or a black boxer with some hype behind him.

          Lampley- Pac tard.

          Merchant- unbiased Pac fan, toe to toe action fan

          Foreman- ODLH, Hamed, sometimes Trinidad. He was actually rooting for Vargas in their fight. I think it had more to do with Trinidad's victory over ODLH.

          Roy- Any slick boxer, especially if they're black.

              BULL****! roy doesnt favor anyone based on race. hes a huge fan of pacquiao, donaire, martinez, alvarez just to name a few. hes not at all racist.

              kellerman isnt either although i can see why ppl would say it. he does seem to like a lot of black fighters but is also a big fan of plenty of fighters who arent black. donaire and martinez come to mind.

              but like i said ic an see why ppl would come to that conclusion if they dont watch a lot of boxing. but roy? hell no.


              merchant was all over pavlik, extremely biased in his fights. lampley seemed to be in love with jermain taylor and ofcourse cotto, but i think thats been mentioned.

                Lets not play dumb. Roy turns into Huey Newton/Malcolm X when it comes to rooting for black fighters.

                Max turns into "Malibu's Most Wanted" anytime there's a black fighter involved.

                Merchant loves some Pavlik, but ALWAYS roots for the toe to toe type fighters, and will generally give both men credit for duking it out. Although he does hate on slick boxers.

                Lampley is the clearest case of a Pac tard, and you can't really gauge the amount he roots for another fighter, because he's the epitome of a company man. The only time you can tell, he's really pulling for someone, is a Pacquiao fight.

                  Max Kellerman - This guy is blatantly biased for all the black fighters. It's disgusting.
                  Max Kellerman tends to be biased to American fighters, not all black guys, he does love Nonito Donaire, people say he can't stop talking about Nonito on his radio show.

I recently watched Toney vs Montell Griffin I & II and Foreman was always saying how Toney is winning that fight sooo clearly when in reality both were very close fights.


                    Yeah man, also I remember Foreman said something like he wish his sons were more like Oscar lol.

                    Foreman also loved Naseem Hamed dude loved his antics for some reason, remember when Hamed was walking to the ring for the kelley fight and Foreman couldn't stop laughing and enjoying himself? he said he even hoped his mom was up watching this.

                      LOL I don't know why but your replies always make me laugh. Lampley is the **** **** **** pac-tard, he is actually the king pac-tard, I wouldn't doubt if Lampley was leaving death threats to Bradley after that gift decisions with an alias.
