    its just gone to far, the nut hugging and bias commenting has gone to far, pretty much anybig fight i can tell who he is rooting for and it just goes to far kellerman, steward and merchant or poppa need to be the new team, bring back srl just get rid of lamply and rather listen to lewis primative commentating abilties

    :rofl :lol: It wouldnt be the first time, didnt he tear up a bit after Pavlik knocked out Taylor last year? Either way, I got nothing against Lampley, at least he brings a voice to the table, Lewis has improved, but his one word answers and his fumbling with fighters names dont help much, Kellerman is the worst, he's an arrogant *** that gets off at the fact that someone actually has to listen to him.

    Aside from the now occasional Merchant appearence, Lampley's the best HBO got, sad, but true.

    He cried when Morales switched southpaw against Manny Pacquiao in the 12th round of their first fight lol. Lampley is a legend though, But I just wanna shoot him when he starts getting biased! I think he was at his worst with Barrera (vs JMM etc)...That **** was absolutely wrong.

    kellerman has grown on me as he matured, lampley is to bias though, talor vs chavez, went from taylor has won every round, to taylor looks more worse for the where then the action of the bout would of led you to beleive

    Thought he was crying because the cameraman's leukemia showed back up? I don't agree with Lampley being a cheerleader, but it sure would be weird to not have him around on HBO/PPV's. I've really been missing Larry on the last two cards.

    Yeah, theres no denying the fact that Lampley's an emotional guy, as well as bias at times, but I will still take him over the likes of Kellerman and Lewis, the HBO team sucks now.

    Morons, he was crying because a longtime member of their crew is going through a hardcore battle with cancer.

    Know what you are talking about before you sound like a jackass...

    They came to an agreement to split fights. Merchant was on his way out but they felt this was the best route to transition Kellerman full-time for a variety of reasons.
