Jim Lampley has been an outspoken critic of Floyd Mayweather on his show 'the Fight Game' that airs on HBO. On Saturday night he will be calling his fight versus Manny Pacquiao from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas as part of a split-broadcast that will see him alongside Roy Jones and Al Bernstein.
The veteran broadcaster has made it very clear that he isn't particularly fond of Mayweather, but come fight night he'll do his job as he always has.
"It's not difficult to clinically call the fight," he said. "In every broadcast there is a detachment process because at the end of the day, regardless of who you're covering there are some people that you like, some people that you don't like and I'm not necessarily referring to this fight but it's a human part of our process. It's a professional discipline to put that aside and deal with the information in front of you in a way that services the viewer with an 'objective call' of the fight.
