    Just wanted to throw this out here before tonight. Jim admits some fault, basically says he sucks at his job although being a professional getting paid for what he does and throws Lederman under the bus.

    A lot of you should reconsider your stance. I think you let emotions, shitty commentary and bias sway your judgment.

    The fervent hate for Ward is totally irrational. There's even a Jay-Z hate thread on our forum just because of his associations with Ward. Somber the **** up is all I can say. I've seen more sane women during their first and second trimesters have better sane judgment than some of you.

    That all said, enjoy tonight and be safe. Make sound decisions if you don't get the outcome you wanted.

    Another note. The only guy who I respect rooting for Kovalev is gx box. The rest of you are just Ward haters. He's always called injustices out like how majority of you idiots and media regarded a GGG over him and has always been 100% unlike majority of you. That said. Here's the video.

    Thats a good interview.. I can stomach the Lamp its that idiot Kellerman who blatantly plays favorites almost to the point that I expect to see him in said fighters corner in between rounds cheering him on. The man is a total a#s hole and ruins the fight for me.

    Mentally there has to be something wrong with you if you still root for Ward after his behavior after getting the belts. He gives Kovalev almost no money for this fight and he has said neutral judges would be unfair. He truly is a bad person and anyone who is his fan should be ashamed of himself.

    Lampley has got progressively worse over the years, but it's that bug-head Kellerman who's the real issue.

    I've disliked HBO broadcasts since Merchant left and always go to another cast or production if there is one available.

    Kellerman is just a joke, I bet he has a Glass Jaw too.

    Good interview. My only beef with lampley is when he calls phantom punches.

    What the **** are you even talking about? since when is ward in charge of paying kovalev? hes not even in charge of his own purse, That's up to the promoters. Kathy duva is the one that's extorting him. She truly is a bad person and she should be ashamed of herself.

    Lampley still comes across well in most of these video interviews but it's like a night-and-day difference with the character he appears to be playing on The Fight Game and HBO's boxing broadcasts.

    I can't go that far. I just don't like him claiming stuff like IF I thought I'd lost I'd tip my hat immediately. There's NO WAY he truly believes he WON.

    VH was being 100% with him telling him he needed EVERY ROUND, ward clearly lost at least two additional rounds. If he only said, maybe I got the benefit out the doubt, I'd feel so much better about the lending hands be got

    He comes off pretty good, makes common sense out of and what he says is true. Subjectivity is always troubling.

    Personally, I'm dying for the future days of open scoring. There couldn't be this level of crying when the fighters know the deal. How people aren't for open scoring is more troubling than ANYTHING else boxing related

    I like Lampley, he's not perfect but he's not the analyst and that's not his job people forget, his role is to call the action and generate excitement. He does this well IMO (although yes sometimes he does mis-call punches landed), and he's got an easy to listen voice.
