    HBO was at a new low today...

    That announcing for the Gonzalez vs Cuadras fight was so bias it made me sick! And the punch stats were RIDICULOUS! Cuadras was outlanding Gonzalez and made him miss so much it wore him out. Lederman needs to retire, it was awful for him to say Cuadras was running! If it wasnt for Ward vs Kovalev id boycott HBO. They truly hit a new low today imo!!! It was a great fight dont get me wrong, I think Cuadras edged it but hats off to both guys that was boxing at the highest level. BUT this fight I has prewritten cards all over it!! If you disagree PLEASE go rewatch on mute, and if you still have Gonzalez winning please go see an eye DR...

    Yea, Lederman's card was disgraceful.

    And Kellerman was slobbing Roman's knob the whole fight, RJJ was telling it was and giving Cuadras credit. I had Cuadras up on my card at the end 116-112 but could see many of the rounds go either way.

      It was really off the mark from what I was seeing so I muted it after the 4th.
      That network seems to be dying a fast death this year. Ward/Kovalev had better set the world on fire or I'd hate to think what becomes of hbo in 2017.

        Interesting I thought Roman pulled it off but I thought Commey clearly won yesterday boxing is a subjective sport. It isn't always cut and dry like other sports.

          watching the ggg fight was hilarious. lampley trying to justify fighting brook was great. making excuses for ggg saying he was sick and then ggg himself said brook was too small and perfectly fine lol

            Kellerman is terrible at play by play lol. He needs to be on radio with that crap so he can say every single movement

              You know I can understand they have jobs and HBOs boxing is falling off but to discredit what cuadras was doing was bad business. HBO screwed over theyre most loyal fanbase tonight. HBO is done and I am glad, I am canceling my subscription.

                HBO would have better ratings if they replaced Max Kellerman.

                  I had Commey winning to o the more telling punches came from Commey and the more telling punches came from Cuadras but the difference is in the 2 fights was Gonzalez vs Cuadras was fought at a higher degree of boxing.

                    Kellerman wasn't that bad. He pretty much kept saying that Cuadras was beating the s**t out of Gonzalez...but...Gonzalez is still winning (in other words, "I want to keep my job").

                    It's the Compubox stats that were way f**ked and Lederman's ******ed ass was way off base as usual.
