Again, for the 5th time, I'm not saying HBO is racist, I'm saying they were BIASED. There is a big difference. I distinctly remember HBO desperately wanting Kelly Pavlik to beat Hopkins in that fight.
I think Lampley and Kellerman were fantastic commentators, but they did have a biased against a certain type of fighter. But man could Jim Lampley call a fight. And I'm not defending the LDBC as a whole, I'm saying that black fighters do often get treated unfairly, and that the Andre Ward and Tim Bradley example of how they treated Kovalev is how all announcers should do it.
