    and I caught Lampley messing up tonight too

    There was one instance where Andy landed a shot yet he called it for Julio.

    Jim Lampley is the excitable village idiot of the HBO commentating team. I miss the days when George Foreman used to STFU him

    Lamely will be silent. Merchant will be having a stroke. And Steward will be repeating, "This is going exactly the way I thought it would".

    I really think there would be an eerie silence.

    I have a feeling that if/when Mayweather-Pacquaio happen, Lampley would make sure the general public knows that Manny is winning even if Floyd would decisively wins most of the rounds. To this day, Oscar-Mayweather was still the most biased one-sided commentated bout that I've ever seen by HBO. I wouldn't be surprised to see Lampley screaming on the top of his lungs and scoring every rounds for Manny.

    Why were there multiple long awkward pauses of silence in rounds 9-12, when Bradley was coming on?

    But, Manny clearly won against Bradley without a shred of doubt.

    Not really, I think he did enough to edge him out, but there were alot of close rounds and he faded down the stretch.

    it was not like bradley was coming on but pac talking off the 10th. 11th and 12th are close aside from rounds 2. judges giving 7th to bradley and some rounds in between the 3rd and 9th are questionable.
