    I saw it on epic mexican tv, but I'm curious about how did HBO call the fight? I mean, Lampley, Merchant and co. I can't find a video for the fight yet.

    Lampley- Pac's nuts
    RJJ- Calling it likt iwas but constantly going on on Pac's faints
    Mercahnt- calling it even and the best...speaking on how Marquez was working the body and setting up the overhand right. Good stuff from the Merchant

    Right up to the sec of the stoppage they all thought the fight was in the bag for Pac.

    my favourite part was RJJ saying that pacquiao won't get caught with that right hand again. then saying he doesn't think an uppercut would touch pac either. flash forward 20 seconds and pac is knocked out.

    Jones In the wrap-up said something like...
    "Marquez hit Manny w/ a right hand right before the actual KO but I didn't want to call it"

    Lampley is a disgrace to boxing. The only reason to hear listen to HBO was Roy Jones Jr.

    Lampley sucked pacs nutts, not calling JMM shots, but going overboard on Pacs.

    Surprisingly... Larry Merchant was best. You could hear Lampley's vagina quivering through his voice all throughout the fight

    Prefight: Pacquiao is in the zone.
    entrances: Pacquiao looks good, Marquez is on PEDs.
    Round 1,2: Pacquiao is dominating Marquez.
    Round 3: Pacquiao is domin.... Oh ****.
    Round 4-5: Marquez is okay, roided ****. Pacquiao got this. *knockdown* Fights even, actually Marquez should just quit. the roids aren't working.
    Round 6: Oh yeah, Manny kicking ass. Marquez ain't ****. Marquez's daddy is P..... a typhoon has just hit the Philippines by the name of Juan Manuel Marquez, it was made of PEDs.

    As usual, it was RJJ who was the equalizer and balanced the commentary a bit. He was spot on when he said Manny was doing an awesome job with those feints. Jones could see what the two other geezers could not.
    **** Merchant.

    At the end it seemed like Lampley was getting emotional. His voice was trembling and I thought he was going to start crying.
