Boxing: A Tale of HBO Nuthuggery (A MUST WATCH)

Great video. I've always thought the HBO crew can really screw up a fight by commentating in this fashion. With respect to all the years most of the HBO commentators have in the sports world, I find mind boggling sometimes how they can be so overtly biased, and the sad part is, it's not just Jim Lampley, it's all of them! That's right, Lamply, Foreman, Kellerman, Jones, Steward, Ledderman (although he's really just an unofficial judge) and you can add the showbox team to that list as well, with the exception of Bernstein. Teddy atlas gets it right most of the time but he turns into a trainer when he's commentating (understandably so), instead of just calling the fight. I thought Lennox did a good job as well. Like the video, point well taken, and the more times I view the fight the closer it gets

 

omg...poor Timmy...he's such a VICTIM..oh nooes

 

I never watched the HBO boradcast. That's pretty ridiculous!

 

HBO are ****. Especially compared to the Showtime commentators, so the first time I watched the fight I did so without sound and still had Pac winning clearly.
A better example of HBO bias would be Kotelnik absolutely schooling Alexander and getting shafted whilst Lederman came up with a 9-3 scorecard in favour of Alexander. There was also a fight where they compared Linares to SRR.atsch

 

unfair to use rewind and slo mo while the commentators watch it live in person...

i think its fair to say MAJORITY of people seen it the same way as it was being called...LIVE is a *****

 

somebody should send this to hbo and team paquiaoDDDD im serious man. thath would give hbo something to think about, and the world can see why the judges scored it for bradley!!!!!

 

Uh, no they didn't.

 

Ive always thought people like Jack know their **** and are kind of boxing-experts, now I learn that his perception of the fight was Pacquiao kicking Bradleys ass all over the arena...:roll:
I think HBO could really sell you any result they want to and you guys would just eat it up and defend your misperceptions to the grave, not caring one bit about all the evidence that suggests otherwise.
This forum, no, this world is full of wannabe-experts that know **** about boxing and how to score rounds even though boxing is their only hobby.
They obviously cant tell the difference between landed and missed shots, not even in slow-motion. :verysad

 

Those people breathing death threats are not just *******s, they are a disgrace.
Not to the sport, but to the world. Their actions are inexcusable.
They should receive genuine death threats to understand what it feels like.

That being said, still this video proves ****.
THERE ARE COUNTLESS PEOPLE ON SITE WHO HAD PAC WINNING BY A LANDSLIDE.
Not even 10% of the people present -- that is including Bradley hiimself -- thought Timmy won.
THEY WEREN'T BASING THEIR SCORECARDS OFF OF HBO'S BROADCAST.
I think that is very easy even for drop outs like you to understand.

If this video's agenda is to expose HBO, then welcome to 2 years ago.
However, it's so obvious that you tards are trying to legitimize Bradley's win, or your shitty 7-5 scorecards in favor of Timmy.

So no, you're still tards.

 

Now if only you can tell that to the rest of the world who were either:

1. On site.
2. Watching it from a different broadcast.

Who still had it Pacquiao by at least 4 rounds. They are 90% of the people of who gave a **** about this fight, btw.

And yes, Pac kicked Bradley's ass, tired in the last 3 rounds, gave Bradley some gift rounds as a result, but still connected the straight left to that huge dome rocking Bradley on every instant it connects.
Yes, that is called "kicking somebody's ass", the same way JMM kicked Pac's last November.

 

You cant really argue with people that refuse to accept reality.
Anybody who scored the fight by 4 rounds in favour of Pacquiao has
a) lack of vision
or
b) no ****ing clue how to score a fight
and I dont give a rats ass what their names are and if they spent half their life in the ring or judging fights.
And by the way, I was originally watching it with british commentary, and they were just as biased as HBO, if not more.
If that whole thing was a test to find out if you can shape peoples opinion and influence their perception by telling them fairy-tales that have nothing to do with whats going on in the ring, congratulations, your hypothesis has proven to be correct.

 

Why would the truth make you sick unless you just hate or really dislike Pac? Again.....the commentary matched what was taking place in the ring.....if you watch Floyd's fight with Shane or JMM, the HBO crew were completely one sided with their comments regarding how great Floyd was.

Of course Floyd wasn't robbed like Pac was and had the correct decison been called on June 9th......none of these knuckle heads would be questioning the commentary from the HBO crew....everyone would have moved on because of hoe easily Manny dusted TIM off.

Anyone who saw a close fight are a very special group......a very small group and probably wouldn't even know it if they got their ass kicked. I'm sorry but its ****ing silly to try to claim Timmy won more than 3 or at most, 4 rounds. He got dominated and he knows it...

 

I knew it!
JMM, who was there live and had it 4-5 rounds for Pac didn't know how to score a fight.
Oh and pretty much 90% of the boxing community who was there LIVE.

Thank you for proving to ESB that you are an idiot. :happy :happy :happy

Yeah, but then again the clip in the OP is clear evidence that it didn't :roll:
I mean are we talking about the Margarito-fight here or what?
Where did Pac dominate Bradley?
Judging from your perspective Bradley has to be an iron-chinned warrior to have survived that onslaught and his face has to be made out of some mysterious indestructable layer bc after the fight he looked like he just stepped out of the shower.
