    I love Lamps.

    The idea is that the ideal announcer is unbiased and detached, I say bs, I don't mind that he has clear favorites. That's being a fan, and I want someone who loves the sport and it shows, and it does with Lamps.

    :goodBarry and Farhood don't get nearly enough credit.

    As far as the question Lampley s fine, I love how emotionally invested he gets, it shows he cares.

    Personally, I think he's blind and bias. Can't stand to hear him announce a fight.

    I know everybody has some bias, but combine that with his "vision trouble," and it gets annoying.

    he is not the worst but he often calls shots that dont land and its very clear sometimes.

    he does a good job hyping up fights, i really like kellermen i know he does not get alot of love here

    Dude I'm not a fan of Kellerman

    Its like he comes on a forum like this and just reads off whatever is popular opinion

    It doesn't seem like he formulated his own thoughts
