    I watch it on skysports damn those guys were super bias they made it look like Khan was killing Maidana and when Maidana came back they blame it on Khan like Maidana was just getting lucky or something. But yea Larry Merchant needs to retire he doing bad as of late!!!

    It did seem strange, maybe a bias towards british fighters? Maybe its getting to be a case of "they just dont make them like they did in my day". I definately felt that he didnt give a **** though. Pity, it seemed to register with khan too, very rude and unproffesional.

    i usually like merchant but he was a joke last night. a fight of the year contender and many questions that should have been asked to khan about the 140 division and his chin. if thats the best merchant can do, then get the senile, ignorant ****, ****ed off from hbo.

    It was strange, it was like Maidana was pushed over there and Larry was told now or never, and then Maidana, like the ***** he was all night was all like "**** you".

    Merchant doesn't even seem to like boxing anymore. But Kellerman is even worse.

    What is up with all the talk they had about Khan asking for madaina and all that ****. He ducked him for a year, and no it wasn't to build the fight, it was to pad his bank account in case he got stomped the **** out like he almost did. I mean credit for him to finally get in there with him, but they made it sound like he hadn't been avoiding him like the plague since marcos became his mandatory.

    After the disgraceful interview of Katsidis last time, this is yet another example of why Merchant needs to be replaced, and the sooner the better.

    Roy Jones is great though..

    It was just so terrible. One of the worst interviews ever. Right up there with Kellerman not letting Floyd get a few words in when Mosley invaded the ring against him post-Marquez.

    Maybe he really needed to take a ****. It's hard to have a good prostate at that age.

    HBO had a schedule to keep so they had to get it off the air fast. Remember, you had 2 fights that went the distance so they had no filler time.

    Never liked Merchant anyway, especially how he hates Andre Berto so much. Seems really unfair to Berto.
