He's an annoying prick, but not as bad as Merchant was in his later years. I find it distasteful when fighters aren't even allowed to thank or shout out their families and/or training camp and get cut off by these pencil neck geeks. Let the fighters say what they want to say dammit!
jim gray needs to let the fighters talk

Let Chino advertise his cookies damn. He's getting only 1.5 million against Floyd where Rios got 3.5-4 million for fighting Pacquiao. This is because they had to get Broner and Kahn on the card who demand a lot of money for fighting.Comment

Broner insulting a crowded arena full of Hispanic people on Cinco De Mayo, lol. Without those "f'n Mexicans", Broner would have been making 15K instead of a million.Comment

I do agree that Gray comes off as a prick most times, I don't care for him personally but Broner was out of line man. I realize he was just playing into the whole "can man" thing but from a business standpoint, those people in the audience pay the bills and most of them are of Hispanic descent.
I guess on the whole, I'd agree that Gray is a pretentious dude who is passive-aggressive in his interviews after the fights and often insults the boxers.Comment

Jim Gray should get fired from showtime. For not letting fighters say what they want to say. Thats what FOX does which is also where he works and Fox is a dumb news organization that doesn't allow you to voice your opinion unless you believe in their ideals.Comment
