I said other day Merchant had been ragging on Floyd - in a subtle fashion - for years, and nice to see Froch had clocked it as well.
Agreed with all Froch said except that Merchant is good at what he does (though I suspect he's just covering his back with that one).
I like Merchant he tells it like it really is.............as far as Void is concerned, what is his excuse for beating up women? When is his trial, or shall I say trials?
Merchant pushes these fighters. He isn't there to give them blow jobs. He asks hard questions that other are too scared to ask. It's post fight and these big names want their dick sucked, especially someone like Floyd. Merchant is never going to congratulate someone then sooth their ego. I find he might do that when guys have been in a war and everyoen is full or praise and admiration.
Also, what the hell is "street" about earning millions of dollars on a televised event to millions of people across the world? Floyd was being a classless jackass. Yeah, Victor was asking for it, but Floyd was being a fanny. He deserved called on it and Merchant did so, while still praising him for the excellence he showed in the ring.
There hasnt anything subtle about it at a lot of times (baldomir fight) but nothing wrong with that, he gives him credit where its due too
that was where a lot of it comes from Merchant basically said, correctly, that was boring as **** why did you fihgt like that against a guy you are so much better than? And why was there people leaving in their thousands before the 10th? Both correct questions, and ones floyd couldnt deal with
