    and HBO not bringing him off broadcast yet, at least to a secondary position like maybe replacing ledermans dumb ass, is an embarresment to the network.

    HBO crew during "Martinez looks like ****. He's losing his title. He's over-rated. This is the number three P4P?"

    HBO crew after "Another tremendous win for Martinez. Heart of a true champion! We knew it was just a matter of time"

    Cant forget about the "you strike out 4 times and hit a homerun then youve had a good day"comment.A lot of classic lines by merchant.

    To be fair, Martinez didn't exactly look like the undisputed middleweight world champion the first 8 rounds. However, I mute HBO commentary as a matter of principle.

    Yeah, last night wasn't the best night for the HBO crew.

    Good fight, though.

    Merchant is normally good

    Not sure why he gets all the hate

    (didn't hear his broadcast from last nights fight)

    Steward is awful

    I'll never forgive his performance in Pac - JMM III

    Merchant in particular was constantly talking about Martinez waiting to be 'exposed' last night etc. What's his agenda?

    Possibly, even after Mayweather was screaming in his face after Ortiz, all the commentators were asking 'well who REALLY won this fight' and Merchant was like 'Mayweather clearly won and dominated'

    Might not like certain boxers but he normally always gives them their dues

    Imo Kellerman & Merchant are good, everyone else can eat **** with their bias agenda pushing

    *Marquez lands an uppercut and a straight right on Pacquiao*

    Steward: Even though Marquez is doing well Pacquiao looks so fast, so strong

    **** OFF!
