What happened after that one round.?

Boxing at his best.

Yeah it's sad because I'm a big fan of Lederman, who usually is very insightful and produces great score cards. But Lampley is a notorious nut hugger, he did that same shit with De La Hoya all the time, especially in the Whitaker fight. At one point DLH threw a 5 or 6 punch combination, missed every fucking punch, DLH even laughed out of embarrassment, and Lampley is screaming like DLH just knocked Pernell out.

It's funny that there are still people who think Floyd doesn't have a chin, or doesn't have heart. Shane hit him about as flush and as hard as you can hit a man, rocked him and had him doing the fish dance for a few seconds, and Floyd didn't bat an eye and took control.

DLH was the biggest nut-hugee (nut-hugging recipient) of all time.
HBO deepthroated him constantly.

Lampley literally got choked up and teary eyed when DLH stopped Vargas. Shameless cock gobbling ugh.

Oh, I know he does have a lot of both. Which will make this Pac fight very interesting.

To this day Jim keeps a very special pair of gold-plated, monogrammed kneepads with the initials DLH on them.

That video - although ironically showing a fight where Manny was "robbed" - also highlights the reason why Manny has a great chance of winning if it goes the distance. His activity, output and bursts look impressive even if they aren't actually landing.

He only needs two judges to favour him.

Oscar, Maidana and ridiculously Canelo got a draw/win against Floyd. Judah and Castillo won 4/5 rounds by certain judges. Manny might only have to win four rounds to get the decision. You can bet your life the fans will be screaming "robbery" either way unless either gets slaughtered

There's no way Pac makes it to the final bell though.

There is no way Floyd stops Manny.

We'll see about that...

The same crew was doing the same thing for Floyd's matches when he was one HBO and a different crew does it now on showtime. Same is done for ward , canelo, Kovalevs, etc. It's part of the broadcast and having 3 people go "that didn't land, that either, wow this guy couldn't hit the side of barn... " isn't going to make people watch. For guys like ward and hopkins, the commentators have to work extra hard because so much of what they do is crafty but missed or muted.

For even the best boxers, lets remember that boxing is a game of inches. Inches, eventually become centimeters, centimeters eventually become millimeters. Slipping punches, eventually becomes getting grazed by punches, then half caught by punches.. Then one day .... you wake up asking what happened. That's what makes boxing so exciting. Even the defensive specialists can get caught by someone regarded as a hack by some.

A commentator's job is to be unbiased and break down what is going on. When you have a guy going ape shit over one fighter's punches that aren't landing, and totally ignoring the offence of the other fighter, you're doing a grave disservice to that boxer and the fans. It's not part of broadcasting to bullshit people and give an inaccurate account of what's going on. That's the complete opposite of what they should be doing.

I agree with you. Just because its wrong doesn't mean it won't happen. The networks pays the bills and will always push for their house fighters. Someone like lederman dishes the same comments broadcast after broadcast so people just tune him out. "yanno jim,i gotta tell ya, its just amazing the way (name) is able to keep landing those punches, cutting off the ring and using effective aggressiveness...5 rounds to 1; 59 -55, (name) "

The fans want competitive fights and a guy like Gatti got away with that. Being vulnerable, taking a pounding and then forcing the rocky style knockout comeback. The fighters now aren't interested in that. They want to dominate, dissect, and keep the undefeated record by minimizing risk. More store power means more revenue through sponsorships, interviews, guest appearances etc. So the broadcasters have to inflate deflate, so that the fighter gets what they want and the network gets what it wants by making the fans believe they are getting what they want. Its kind of a double edged sword though when you think about it because it sheds spotlight on fighters like a marquez or a martinez that just kept getting shafted off screen on undercards before they got said star status and networks behind them.

It's "I gotta tell ya" not "Yanno Jim"
