    Anybody else sick of…

    How biased these networks are for Berto. This is sick, I know people hate on HBO commentators but these Showtime commentators were disgusting today. Everytime Berto landed a a little punch they hyped up.

    They made fight seem closer then it actually was. And I am sick of these guys talking about for 12 rounds about how much heart Berto has even though Berto is always the favorite to win these fights.

    Hopefully this hype job retired because Haymon has these networks keeping him alive, even though he can’t win a fight against C fighters.

          Yeah, the commentator was being sympathetic to Berto early on.

          They had hopes for a big Berto comeback.

            After seeing Berto fight with one arm and take massive shots trying to win this is the kind of thread you make? He deserved the hype today, he was doing a decent job with only half the firepower.

                Get out of here man, they talk like this every fight he gets his ass whooped for 12 rounds and they focus on his heart, then the fighter thats actually working. And if you don’t think these guys are in Haymon;s pocket look at their scores in the end.

                  I didn't hear the Sho commentators since my steam had some other ones.

                  But the post-fight interview was biased, with Jim Gray prefixing his question around Berto's 'shoulder injury', which Karass rightfully dismissed.
