    Charr. HBO is so big on Charr that they actually bought a Klitschko fight. They know Charr = ratings.

    Good question. Undoubtedly, Lampley will take a fighter I pretty much like and, through nothing but his own commentary, turn him into a guy I want to lose.

    Not Jr...
    I'd say Ward, He beats Dawson & HBO will bust a nut!!
    (They wil chop Chad down IF he looks bad)
    ^No pun intended

    No way, Chavez Jr is the chosen one to be HBO's cash cow, certainly not an unmarketable 38 year old Argentinian. It was clear during the Macklin - Martinez fight that they want to get rid of him to give Jr a bigger spot.

    This brings me back to the Martinez vs Macklin fight where Larry merchants old senile ass kept talking **** about Sergio saying he was unimpressed .Then he shut the **** up and jumped on the bandwagon by the end of the fight.

    I think Kellerman is more biased than Lampley (just my opinion). The names that come to mind are Alvarez and Broner.

    Not early on.He was having a bit of trouble setting up his punches seemed like he couldn't get into a groove. He closed the show in exciting fashion though ,that's all most people will remember from that fight anyway.

    HBO's bias will be so strong that people won't be able to believe that KNee won the decision
