Comments Thread For: Jim Lampley Agrees To New Multi-Year Deal With HBO

[ironmt]

Lampley Is the best In the business. It wouldn't be HBO boxing without him.

I used to love Lampley's work back in the early 90's. But over the years he has become biased and down right out of touch with what's actually going on in the ring. And he has the tendency of deceiving the watching audience. A prime example is the Cotto vs Canelo fight. It was a very competitive fight that was ruined by the biased commentating in favor of Canelo. I find Lampley over analyzing the fight instead of just calling the fight.

He should be fired he’s biased. Him trying to get Rigo dq’d Is the most pathetic thing I’ve seen from a broadcaster. He should also stay in his lane and stop commenting on fighters personal lives which he uses to be biased

Wait what? Tell this to me please.

Great. Maybe now that he's secure in his contract, he won't keep selling out and shilling out of fear, like during Kovalev-Ward II after Virgil Hunter threatened he should be fired because he didn't "stay in his lane" and let Andre Ward mega-fans RJJ and Max Kellerman create a fake narrative of the fight without him butting in with his inconvenient reminders of reality.

man you just cant accept your boogyman got stopped can you?

Lampley was great in the 90's. Now he has become as stale as the boxing product HBO pushes out!

Lampley is terrible, but he's good for HBO.

Lampley in the hall of fame lmao what a joke

even rocky balboa got inducted into the boxing hall of fame. yeah the fictional character was inducted alongside mike tyson and chavez sr.

this blowhard is in love with his words some type of narcissistic tripe as long as he is with HBO I will watch it in Spanish it's far better than his so-called commentary... he couldn't carry Don Dunphy's shoes..

[future hendrixx]

when will they fire harold lederman. i mean who really gives a fk about an unofficial card. he adds nothing of insight either "i that was me in there jim I'll whack the guy just whack him jim". wtf is that.

I'd rather see the unofficial card of one of the ring card girls.

HBO's version of Flava-Flav.
Original hype man
From his mouth, he has created all types of myths from overrated fighters.
From Prince Hamed, to Crawford, "The Spin Dr." keeps flapping his gums, the more fools follow his every word.
