    First, Steward was talking out of his ass as usual, Manny was peppering Margo and this guy says "I have a feeling Margos going to take over later on" :lol: "Mannys not hurting Margo at all":patsch

    Lampley: Boom!, Bam! Bang Bang!

    Kellerman: Pacquiao isnt as good as Ive seen him, maybe so but Jesus its not a point you keep reiterating coz no one cares!!

    Finally, the disrespect of Floyd.. I mean Im not a fan of Floyd but theyre just flat out making fun of him esp, Max and Lampley. I mean the man might be scared but you dont go "Wheres Floyd? He should be here fighting instead" "He may fight this slowed down version of Manny ....MAybe"


    Any thoughts?

    they sucked. And Steward couldn't pronounce Rigondeaux the whole time. WTF.

    And in the 6th, Margo lands 3 left hooks to the liver, they say "I think Pac's taking a breather"

    lol

    They were terrible I agree. Margarito landed several shots and clearly wobbled Pac on replal and they said how good Pac is to take 6 shots from him. Pacs lack of power really showed up and Margarito has a decent chin not unbreakable as Shane showed. Pac was hit easily with the jab they ignored it.

    Floyd exposing the racists really has them still annoyed.

    Mosley was the same weight as Margo with both being 160 while Pac was outweighed by 17 pounds maybe these stats have something to with the difference in power.:yep

    Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I got the impression that they might be trying to increase the pressure / expectation for that fight to take place. There were a few moments in there where they seemed alternately to be baiting / enticing Mayweather. It's in their interest as they're the only channel that could afford to host it, and the PPVs would be through the roof.

    none of that is unprofessional imo. they may be showing bias but as far as i'm concerned they were speaking the truth. that straight body shot from pac folded margarito and he was never the same after that. previous to that however, he was walking through pac's shots.

    the other comments are also simply what seems to be the truth from their very close perspectives, both in terms of the fight and in terms of the sport.

    I don't think you can go by that really. Margarito wasn't there that night mentally as he was most likely thinking about his upcoming suspension or worse, banned for life.Though I would agree, Shane's more powerful that Manny, no doubt.

    Its become a Vegas/Texas vacation weekenf for these guys. Time for a change.

    Also with the Jones/Karras fight..I swear Steward changed his mind 10 times within a round. Hes a pre-emptive mofo..always jumping to conclusion and when he gets 50% of it right in the end, then hes a ****n "its exactly the way I envisioned it"
