Another GBP robbery. Commentators were in on it too. SRL's first fight commentating for DAZN and he's already picking off where the PBC and HBO commentators left off, shilling for the house fighter like he was directed to do it or paid to do it. I hope SRL aint like that but it was blatant favoritism so I dont know what other explanation there could be. Ali was getting schooled by Herrera the first six rounds and SRL said nothing about it and just kept making up **** about who looked more comfortable, and that's why Ali was ahead. It's just like how when Max Kellerman's preferred fighter wasnt winning the boxing match, he would change the goalposts and talk about who looked more frustrated, or who was winning the story of the fight. It's just like Roy said GGG won the second Canelo fight in terms of scoring it as a boxing match, but because "he made it about Mexican style, you can't give it to him." That was Abel trying to get in Canelo's head, how does that affect the scoring of a fight lol?
But this is what they do. And I was disappointed to see SRL doing the exact same thing. It's almost as if someone is teaching them all how to do it. "When the house fighter is winning the fight, talk about who is winning the fight. When the house fighter is losing the fight, talk about how his opponent is frustrated, or not winning the story of the fight." It's *****ing blatant and every single major boxing network's commentators are doing it now as if they are all being taught to do it. What the *****? It's Twilight Zone.
I've always been disappointed with SRL, his commentary is usually wrong and he's always a shill for whatever promotion he's in the pay of. I'm always disappointed when I see him pop his talking head up on a broadcast.
