Lampley already knows what he will say in the opening bell

    CBSSports.com: Do you ever come to the ring with rehe****d lines, or is that completely off the table?

    Lampley: Normally, I would have nothing. But in this particular instance [Mayweather-Pacquiao], I do have one line that I am planning, hoping that I will use at the very outset of the fight, either before the opening bell or immediately after the opening bell. That line has been evolving in my mind for six years. And that's the only one. I'll tell you the day after the fight whether I actually got that sentence in or whether it gets lost in the flow of everything else that's going on. But I do have an observation that I'm planning to make which is in my head and I think I'll probably make it around the time of the opening bell.

    lampley also comes out with great things on the spot like when foreman won the title at 45 that's why he is calling the fight and i am happy.

    Good, if you were calling the "greatest" match of all time, wouldn't you want some iconic soundbites?

    michael buffer seems very lackluster alot of the times now when announcing fights.. but with lennon jr there and this being the biggest fight ever you can be sure he is going to bring the house down
