    I have to agree with you on your assessment of Merchant, he didn't just belittle Mayweather evey chance he got, he did it to several fighters. When you take personal shots at fighters, they way he did, he got exactly what he deserved when Mayweather struck back. You should at least put your personal opinions aside when calling fights, and at least try not to be biased. I remember when he a big Goerge got into during a live broadcast of a fight, because big George didn't like how Merchant referee to Mexican fighter and big George set him straight. There was a uncomfortable pause after their exchange, I loved it.

    I think it was Titos win over Osacr where Felix was thanking everone for the victory and Merchant interrupted by saying "the judges". Might have been another fight though.
