lamply is not too bad but merchant takes the whole broadcast to talk about the first fight of the night. manny is i think one of the better they ever had. i mean he gives you trainers view. he doesnt always say they look tight when they are back looking for a counter. he actually see's it. i mean come on he is one of the best trainers in the game right now. he could see a flaw in anyone. lennox is getting better. RJJ was great IMO. i mean he wasnt favoring the HBO fighter like they do sometimes. he would tell you how the fight is going. look at the bhop fight the first one. he was telling you what bhop was doing but than giving taylor mad credit for fighting a great fight. merchant i think didnt like roy or forman bc they would prove him wrong all the time. like when roy said hops was looking for a KO against taylor merchant jumps in and says well thats not a good idea. he is always trying to sound like the better man. the one who knows more. lamply just kinda sits there and instigates the other two commentators.
HBO commentators need to be fired...

Which was worse in the fight jay nady bitching about the holding or the commentators bitching about jay's bitching.Comment

if they're going to fire anybody, they need to fire lennox lewis. his accent is even more annoying that his fights. his boxing knowledge is mediocre at best. and his coverage is sparse and unremarkable.
id rather listen to larry merchant slowly drone on and on and on about opinionated bull**** in a drunken haze rather than listen to that god-awful accent and primative coverage by lennox lewis.Comment

Did anyone actually buy this piece of **** PPV to listen to the commentators?
Newayz...IMO George Foreman was the best. He would always tell Merchant you dont know what its like to be hit with a stiff jab, so how could you comment on how the guy should or should not be feeling? lol.Comment

Originally posted by NautilusI would just leave boxers or trainers in there, like George, Lennox, or Manny.
I thought Lampley/Merchant were terribly boring and missed the shifting momentum of the Maskaev-Rahman fight. They missed the entire fight with their vacuous commentaries.Comment

Originally posted by AllEyesOpenThey all seem to be biased in my opinion, but Foreman was the guy who gave you the best insight from the fighters point of view in my opinion.Comment
