    I agree with you.

    Haymon deserves to take heat for a lackluster 2014 in the boxing world but HBO aired some really bad mismatches themselves. And they even put one of the worst mismatches of the year on PPV.

    So if Lampley was being fair and objective he would direct criticism at his own network too as well as at certain promoters they are affiliated with. The fact that he doesn't makes him look like a biased hypocrite.

    Michelle Beadle sucks by the way. She's just eye candy to try to attract a younger male audience.

      Michelle Beadle is a great addition to the show.

      Their topics regarding Floyd and Haymon were spot on.

      Can't wait till the next show.
      First I thought Michelle Beadle might be a good addition, but no.
      Bashing Mayweather with Lampley for domestic violence when Lampley and Kellerman on the show have their own history in it was a complete fail. The Fight Game and the content in it is completely up to Lampley so the addition of Beadle only constructed for one reason.
      Now they go off on Al Haymon and his fighters and will continue to do this in every single edition of The Fight Game. Basically there are some people behind people like Lampley, Roach etc. who tell them what to say, what to do and this is the result. There's no problem with critizising Haymon for his matchups but some stuff Lampley does is just so fake... He should care about the fights and decisions on his own network first.

        If Haymon and Floyd were still with HBO...would he have said this?

          Nope.

          Look how he didn't say a damn thing about Pac-Algieri.

                actually it seems that is what most of you are...going against Showtime and Haymon simply because Floyd is attached to them
