    Just got through watching the Gotti/Ward documentary and he tears up. Seen numerous interviews where he's talking about a fighter and he tears up. This dude is always gets choked up when discussing the simplest things pertaining to boxing. This dude is worse than a sensitive baby momma who's crying about her food stamps being cut off. :| What's his deal?

    HBO should raise his $5M/year salary to sheer him up.

    Dudes no worse than that fat shithouse arreola that time McDonalds drive thru closed and he was first in line in his hummer waiting for 3x quarter pounder meals go large with strawberry chocolate and vanilla shakes, 2x double cheeseburgers and a fillet o ****ing fish. Man he cried for a long time. Worst thing was though to top it off he had to haul his sorry blubbery ass to KFC two blocks down and arreola HATES KFC if given a choice. Think he plumped for an XL scorcher hotbox meal, 16piece bucket meal with 2litres of Pepsi and another 2litres of sprite, 2x zinger tower meals large, coleslaw sides all round and a pot of popcorn chicken with 2hot4u dip. Cried all the way home the fat ****.

    I saw him when he first worked for ABC college football as a field reporter. He's always been highly emotional and on the sensitive side. Not saying he's a bad reporter. But he often get into the emotional side of the sporting event when he should be more detached.

    I haven't seen the documentary or the interviews but like a lot of people he probably does it for the camera like "Oh look I love boxing so much that I am crying now", I like him though, he says some ******ed **** sometimes but I like his commentary, he makes fights more exciting.

    Jim Lampley loves the sport. He has dedicated a large part of his life to it. I think we should be happy we have someone so invested in the sport instead of criticizing hi.

    I personally think he takes a ****tail mix of antidepressants/anti-anxiety pills that make him all loopy.
