    They seemed very bitter about the whole event and moaning about the entrances :patsch it's 80k in a stadium they got to liven up the presentation what do they expect a 10 yard walk to the ring ?.

    Such jealousy that britain does boxing better than anyone else in the world the venues are better the crowds are better the camera work is better.
    Hbo should stick to what they are best at, high budget slick tv shows.

    Yeah, HBO was a real pleasure to listen to. Crying about the entrances, fake enthusiasm, Roy Jones rambling on about how Froch doesn't have power in his right hand in the second round (**** knows what he's blabbering on about half the time. Jones really just loves to hear himself speak.)

    Lampley calling punches that miss as landed punches hit, dickriding Groves, acting like this was the second time they've seen Froch; which wouldn't surprise me at all because HBO has only shown one Froch fight and they don't really seem like big boxing fans. When they aren't broadcasting a show I get the impression that they don't really watch boxing are follow it all that closely. All in all, It was just your typical HBO broadcast.
