Is it time for Jim Lampley to stand down?

Lampley is the best at bringing more excitment out of a fight. Can you imagine if he covered the Corrales/Castillo fight?

Wow. That would be awesome.

I agree with the general consensus. Lampley has become extremely bad and it all started with Hopkins-Taylor I. Go back and watch that fight. His "1,2,3,4FIVE PUNCH COMBINATION FOR TAYLOR!" all night long is horrible. Made me want to go get my eyes checked.

But he's still good for 1 great line a night, IMO it's his
"BEST PUNCH OF THE FIGHT!!!"

Which usually comes sometime after the 6th.

lampley is by far the most talented out of any commentators but the last few years he's been extremely bias, he wasn't like that before, at least not as bad as he is now. that's what happends when the company has their hooks in ya.


but it's going to be a long time before someone steps it up and can be as good as him. plus i expect him to be there until he dies just like merchant is doing.


i hate both those mofo's, not because i don't like them, they're ok, i'm just jealous, they got the job of a life time if you ask me, i'd kill to have that gig.
