Do people really think HBO will be unbiased come Sat night?

      Less than a week and we'll know. Either way the fans win. Either the monster wins or the American with the incredible back story gets a golden victory that deserves to be made into a movie. Just hope Jamie Foxx doesn't play Jacobs.

        Don't even know why people take these commentators way too seriously. They're humans, they have their own biases. I like Paulie, Bernstein, Roy, Lampley, Kellerman... I simply adjust to whatever is commentated on.

        It's loud in this household so it's hard to hear what is being said, and I don't care. It's not like the outcome would be different; it will be the same.

          ^Pretty much this. My 2 Favorite Sports to Watch are Boxing, & tennis. I pretty much appreciate the insight of any ex-athlete of Those Sports. I miss the ESPN 2 crew though. Bob Papa, Teddy Atlas back in The Day.

            HBO propaganda machine is in full force and more biased (and more obvious) than ever.

            GGG losing would be an ABSOLUTE DISASTER for HBO. ***THERE IS NO REMATCH CLAUSE.***

            Haymon would be snatching three belts away from HBO. WBC/WBA/IBF belts. At a time when HBO is normally only able to feature WBOgus belts.


            So yes, the bias will be overwhelming.

            But in the end, a Jacobs victory is unlikely, so it may not matter.

              The result would be the same regardless. A GGG win.

                Unless Lampley is the third man in the ring with Lederman, Kellerman and Jones scoring the fight ringside their opinions don't mean much.

                It will be one way to look at the fight, but everyone who has watched HBO boxing for any period knows they will push the HBO guy especially over a guy from the competition. Jones might keep it real though.

                    I agree with you here. Lol I can't imagine Foxx playing Jacobs. But you know, now that I think about it, Foxx can play imitations really well.

                    But it would cap off Jacobs story perfectly.

                      Jones is not too bad, IMO. But this is a problem in all fights, not this one in particular
