**Larry Merchant Needs To Be Permanently Sent Out To Pasture**

larry merchant was spot on last night an emanual steward told it like it was mosely was an old man

 

i'm a merchant fan, but he did seem to push the boundaries a bit last night. i think it was a bit disrespectful to tell shane 'You've been fighting 18 years. Why were you tight?"

 

Larry is getting bored and annoying now.

HBO should get Teddy Atlas!!!!! That would be the bomb!

 

teddy atlas is cool, but he talks to much. every thought in his head comes out his mouth.

 

Merchant, Lampley and Manny Steward are nearing the end of their nights at HBO........ It is quite obvious to me that Kellerman, Papa and Lenny Lewis are being groomed to take control of the prime telecasts in the next year or two.......
:deal

MR.BILL:hat

 

hows that pushing the boundries that is a legitamite question that myself and others were dying to ask

 

yeah Larry is a douche bag and should have been fired years ago. they should only hire people who have experience with boxing.

 

I like Teddy but he would get on HBO on talk about controlling distance for 5 hours straight. No one wants to hear that ****.

 

They need Lennox Lewis to do the interviews that would be hilarious

 

Well, for Christ sakes, Larry Merchant is at age 78 here in 2010......... In reality, Merchant has been covering and calling boxing longer in his career than that of the late Don Dunphy......

The only other announcer who called sporting action at an older age than that of Larry Merchant is the late voice of the Lakers--Chick Hearn who was in his 80s when he called his last game back around 2002.......

I haven't been back home in L.A. since 2005 and I'm not sure if Vin Scully still calls the Dodger home games for channel 11 anymore...... I think Scully is done now.?.?

Vin Scully had a classic / distinct voice...........

MR.BILL

 

I disagree 100%

 

:happy

The interview wasn't good either. You could tell he tried irritating Floyd but Floyd composed himself. He was saying it was "nothing unexpected." Most people wouldn't have bought a fight in which they thought Mayweather was just going to dominate. I think most would be skeptical to see it... because who envisioned that?

 

They need roy jones back, he actually knows boxing to be doing the commentating.
foreman wasn't bad either, lennox is horrible.

 

He was like this with Roy Jones too...:yep Why I don't know? I wish he would've quit a long time ago...
