Comments Thread For: Merchant on Lampley Calling Mayweather-Pacquiao

[Carpe Diem]

He'll do 100× worse calling this fight than he did Oscar- Mayweather. This time he'll have zero reason to hide his agenda and will show favoritism to his house fighter at full display. The Brits who'll get to watch the broadcast on Sky Sports or Boxnation are the real winners. They won't have to put up with Lampley's bull**** play-by-play for 36 minutes.

Jim: "Good straight left by, Manny. Another straight Left; follow by a right hook by, Manny." He's hitting Mayweather with every punch."

Jim:"Mayweather is losing every round, he needs a KO to win the fight. He's having trouble dealing with Manny's speed, power, angles."

Roy: "Mayweater is actually landing more punches and winning the fight, Jim. He just lands a good straight right to the body that hurt, Manny."


Jim: "I don't think that punch landed, Roy".

I don't think you have heard British commentary. Jim Watt is the worse very biased and doesn't have a clue.

I would not have Roy Jones on the team

Would have went with a new face. Maybe Marquez or even Oscar or Mosley because of their insight into both fighters.

Looks like Floyd wanted to boot the whole HBO crew ...... Like a "G"

Yeah, that's exactly what came to my mind. How OG it was....

[twosweethooks]

AWESOME !!!

It could have been Ward instead of Jones, but Jones is fine.

Bernstein was a must and DUMP all those other showtime crackpots especially the frog voice and the MMA voice,,sick

Bernstein was around from long ago and is most respected ,,,BRAVO !!

Lampley is #1 in every direction !!!!!!

What ???? did Jr want the frog voice or the mma dude hahahahahahah so lame !!!!!!!
