    The problem is most boxers just aren't cerebral enough to be commentators. That's why they are boxers.

    The reason why mental midgets with fragile egos like Mayweather get so irrate at Merchant is because their his truth to what he is asking.

    These are the words of Merchant before Dumbweather starts his YDKSAB rant:

    "You were in charge in the fight, you were aggressive and taking advantage of what you saw as a flaw"

    Mayweather gets complimented but is too ******ed to even know. He just too focused on the criticism of the way he handled the Ortiz situation. Truth hurts. Larry a G.

    I thought the commentary yesterday was quite poor.

    The real problem is guys like Merchant can talk about it but can't do it.

    If Floyd were a mental midget he'd still be with Top Rank or fighting off TV in Monacco for relative peanuts.

    Truth hurts.

    I don't think anybody disputes that Larry Merchant couldn't get in the ring. What is your point? By your shitty logic, Mr Plebb, your opinion on commentating is invalid because you're not a commentator :patsch

    I don't think anybody will dispute that being an announcer is a lot easier than being a prizefighter...Mr ***z.

    That's why I see more fighters doing Larry's job than vice versa.:hi:

    It was a quit job, but Merchant has always sucked.

    Far from a Merchant fan but those people who think he was the worst thing in boxing seriously need to get a grip

    No, just the worst thing in commentating. He was never important enough to be the worst thing in boxing.

    I'll see your Merchant IB and raise you a Bunce. He is the worst thing in commentating.

    Steve is less knowledgable than most of the posters on here which is a perverse achievement.

    Not sure if a troll, or just ******ed. This post has nothing to do with the thread.

    if you have gotten in the ring even once, if only to spar; you know that you saw Ortiz get his bell rung and slightly concussed. He looked concussed when he went to hug Collazo.
