    The diminutive Mr. Merchant is another story, however.
    A couple of years ago, myself and another boxing writer approached him in Houston at the Juan Diaz - Lakva Sim fight card.
    Larry appeared to be on the deck of a ship at high sea, hanging onto the ring apron for support at times.
    I will give him the benefit of the doubt saying he was on prescription medication as I did not see him consuming any alcohol, ok?
    Mr. Merchant was very confused and unsure of his surroundings that particular evening, and was disoriented.

    Maybe he was confused because he turned up at a Main Events PPV televised by ESPN.

        I have no clue but Jim Lampley is worth every penny and more.

          I think Jim is the best of all of the commentators so he should get the most money.

            I second this opinion but do u guys notice that lately he hasn't put his usual "full effort" into commentating like he used to do. Like he used to yell and get excited, now he just kind of talks his way through fights?

            Is it just me, or does any one else notice it? It started in like 2004.

              That's true. It's like he doesn't care anymore. Maybe he is depressed.
