    Man tonight these guys were pathetic.:patsch I'm doing some research but have to go over it again. They have invested a lot in Andre Ward. The announcers were riding the "Dre Train"They are really pushing him hard. Roy Jones aint no Ward fan. :verysad He is actually jealous of Ward!:think I bet Roy has barely seen him fight 2-3 times. :think But he kissed azz until one round he noticed that this surgically repaired right shoulder of Ward's wasn't being used. After that Max Kellerman kicked Roy to get him back on script!:verysad

    Its obvious that they are just making the Ward vs Kovalev fighter as big as they can. That's always the narrative. Make each fighter seem like a god. I just hope Andre doesn't get second thoughts.

    Roy Jones jealous of Ward?

    LMAOOOO!!!

    Jones is Ward's idol you dumbass. Ward admits that Roy is his idol all the time. And Roy is actually VERY high on Ward. Always has been. I'd venture to say they're likely friends.

    The Hell does Jones have to be jealous about? In his prime was FARRR more of a mainstream attraction than Ward is.

    NOBODY outside of hardcore fans and Oakland residents know who Ward is.

    Such a re**** statement.

    Additionally, a young Andre Ward had actually carried one of Roy's belts during the ring entrance/introductions back in Roy's heyday.

    HBOs team used to be good. but they suck now. they build stars and score fights accordingly. Pac vs bradley 1 is a prime example. Pac won the fight yes or should have I mean. but he didnt win 11 rounds like harold claims.

    I noticed they do fanboy their fighters relentlessly.
    When Lomachenko comes on, they go FULL Loma****.

    Roy Jones had his time and he was TBE, but now it's Andre Ward's time. Ward looked strong at 175lbs. Barrera is a pretty big LHW.

    Its seems almost scripted. At least Lampley does.

    Actually Jones and Ward are good friends.
    You can actually see Ward in Jones corner, after fights back before Ward even turned pro

    These guys are reaching for bull****. Division amongst brothas, but never talk about how Kovalev, Duva and Main Events have been throwing shade at Golovkin in interviews.
    Ignore the facts about Euro fighters and make up hate stories about Black ones.
    You wrong for that Doc Everlast, you wrong G.

    They used to cheer Floyd too until he left for Showtime. Everyone except Larry Merchant that is. He always hated Floyd since birth it seems.

    they ARE becoming tiresome. Constantly harping about HBO fighters, rarely talking about anyone else. It's as if a boxer doesn't exist if he doesn't fight on HBO.

    Larry Merchant wouldn't have been as shameless as Lampley and Kellerman.
