    Couple things he does that kills me, he will argue just to argue and when he's wrong, he will bring up the "I fought you didn't" argument.

    He also seems to just be opposite of what anyone says for the sake of being different.
    yeah he always tries to act like he knows more just because he fought and the rest of the guys didn't.

      I actually disagreed with a lot of what Roy said during that fight... especially in the end when he said Prov couldn't hurt him.

      Although it did look like Prov lost some steam off his punches, Bradleys legs were done by the 12th, so he could still be hurt even by a lesser Prov... and that's what happened.

          That is what did it for me. Max is like Tim gets cracked again he might be in trouble and then Roy is like Na he can't hurt Tim any more and boom!

              I don't really agree with you here. I never got the feeling that the commentators were rooting against Floyd in any of his fights.

                Yeah man, he'll say some off the wall ****, and the rest of the guys are silent for a second before having to step up and argue with such a silly statement.

                Example; when Bradley and Provodnikov were in there ****ing and Bradley was getting hurt, Roy said something along the lines of "this kind of fight that's perfect for Bradley"

                Not it wasn't, Roy. It was the ****ing opposite. It was exactly the kind of fight Provodnikov wanted.

                  I think Roy is one of the best commentators by far but I disagreed with a lot of what he said during that fight.

                  I really like Paulie too.

                      All commentators have their favorites. Lampley, Kellerman, Foreman, Steward, and whoever else. Roy is no exception.

                      The key is that they all work together as a team to balance out each others bias'. I think they do a good job with that for the most part.
