You wanna see favoritism, go watch a DelaHoya fight. You can hear Lampley salivating while you watch.
    Naw your wrong George formen was the one drooling over delahoya he was so blatant about it too.

      I am a big fan of Pacman! but you have to admit they seem to always have a big ass smile when they talk of pacman even roy jones jr does. How come they did not drool over kofi jantuah when he knocked out that dude on the undercard? Larry merchant is trully a blatant manny pacquiao fan, he seems to have many negative comments with other fighters but when he talks of pacquiao he really praises him.

        Oh pleassse, Lampley is all over his balls. Like in the Vargas fight...ehemm:
        "When you first saw DeLaHoya, the first thing that came to mind was MY GOD what a left hook." He said it like a lil school girl with a crush. Anyweyz, even teh fight with Felix Sturm, Lampley was seing punches that weren't there. Even Sturm noticed that Lampley was all over DLH's nutz and winked at him in the middle of the fight. Then he makes a poor effort of hiding his praise for Oscar.

          I didn't even know that was televised that fight. Weren't they showing a prefight hype up during this particular fight? I can't remember. Anyweyz, the most early career praise I ever heard of Pac was when he KOd Julio was Lampley comment : "This is some prospect Bobby" Hardly favoritism. Yes I think that the HBO commentators have become fans, but I don't see favoritism as much as for DLH.
