    OK, but you go on a show hosted by a man arrested and convicted of a DV related offense and a co host who ESPN suspended 1 day for admitting he hit his girlfriend?

    If she was so against DV, why appear on the fight game?
    Maybe because they don't deny it ever happened for over a decade.

      With Max, ok, given the story. But Lampley did almost the exact same thing Floyd did. Perhaps she should be more professional and do her homework.
      She also loves stone cold

        Fair point. Again, if you are against the act of DV and cite it as a reason not to buy a fight, why would you then go on a DV perpetrators show and help it get ratings (presumably)?

        It does defy logic, even you see that.

          I do, but sometimes feelings trump logic. She doesn't like Floyd, however, she does like max and Jim.

            No I don't understand your point. That's why I asked my question.

            Why would she appear on a sports-related TV show? Because she works in the sports industry and this it was a platform to discuss important DV-related issues. Plus it's HBO, the upper echelon of sports. The history of her co-hosts doesn't change that, nor does it change her opinion.

              Does she have a lot of twitter followers? Check.

              Is she on ESPN? Check.

              Does she at least talk a boxing whether she knows about it or not? Check.

              Then she is great for boxing, it needs all the exposure it can get. Unless we were talking about looks and in that case...

                That is fine, just state that and not that it Domestic Violence you are against and then support a show hosted by men that have committed acts of DV.

                It's extremely hypocritical, especially given her rant on what Steven A. said.

                No real wiggle room here.

                    See my exchange with El Blanco.

                    If she is against DV, then you would think she would not want to appear on a show hosted by someone convicted of a DV offense. There are a plethora of other sports shows not hosted by a DV offender where there is no conflict.

                    Just seems hypocritical.

                      You're making some sort of twisted equation where appearing on a show hosted by someone with a DV past = supporting domestic violence (or the ratings). Also, appearing on a tv show is much different than spending your income on a sporting event.

                      You posted this: "why would you then go on a DV perpetrators show and help it get ratings (presumably)?" and " not that it [sic] Domestic Violence you are against and then support a show hosted by men that have committed acts of DV."

                      That's just silly. Is that really how you think? It would explain a lot.

                      It's not hypocritical at all. It is a platform, contrary to your posts, that is elevated by hosts with DV pasts. It amplifies her message as she sits with DV perpetrators.

                      If you can't understand my post, then there's nothing I can do for you.
