      I think that's bush league. He wasn't boring at all to many of us, me included. Fought a great fight.

      As a supposedly knowledgeable commentator it's Lampley's job to educate the ignorant fans who don't know skill when they see it. Instead he is degenerating into just another part of the mindless mob who only wants face first brawlers and who boos in the first round if they don't get immediate gratification.
      Lampley is like the Skip Bayless of boxing. A big mouth to draw views with zero foundation for outrageous claims and ignorant statements. Like Rodger would say, "he doesn't know **** about boxing". He isn't going to educate the ignorant fans because he is one of them.

      Give me Teddy freaking Atlas on a mic for a fight over Lampley any day. Rigo is a beauty to watch, if you don't agree I can't take you seriously as a boxing fan.

        To me the intoxicating part is to see the Promoters head explode when their plans get derailed like Rigo did to Bob And Lara to Schaefer. Cuban boxers the train derailers

          This doesn't surprise me. Kellerman is thoroughly nauseating.

          I don't even like Lampley as a person, but he's the best lead commentator around, he's definitely good at his job.

          If he gets excited by punchers and come-forward fighters, well that just makes him like 99% of other boxing fans.

              Rigondeaux IS boring as hell. 99 percent of fans say so. The other one percent don't mean nothing. They're mostly streamers anyway. No way the sport will flourish with this one percent crowd.

                I don't understand how it's such a surprise that Donaire looked like crap compared to Rigondeaux. He is not on Rigondeaux level you can just tell by Rigondeaux pro debut that no one in that weight class was ****ing with him.

                This reminds me of the Pacquiao-Mayweather fiasco and how it would had turned out if Mayweather beat him in a boxing clinic. People put all these expectations in these guys without doing an unbiased honest assessment of their opponent who some are saying is a master boxer.

                Not only that but the guy was giving excuses about how he can't fight said person until there was no one left. It was obvious they knew they were not on that level, a shame their fans have more better knowledge and confidence of their skill compared to the other guy than them.

                    I didn't find Rigondeaux-Donaire the least bit boring.

                      Rigondeaux is a boring duck. That's that.
