Aside from that, I don't like him.

Re: Merchant may stay with HBO
Last night Merchant commented on how he didn't know too much about Rock'y opponents as he doesn't follow Argetina boxing all that much. Look, I paid $55 for that idiot to know what he is suppose to know. Argentina has a great and rich tradition in Boxing with many great warriors and any half-ass historian would know that. Merchant is too lazy and senile to bother to research it. Christ, all one has to do for starters is go to Rock'y list of opponents on Box Rec and do some cross-referencing. Just one more reason not to like him. That said, however, and as much as I don't like him, he actuallywas good last night compared to the flip flopping Manny and the bile-inducucing Lamprey would went apae shit every time Oscar threw a punch. Some needs to tell Lamprey that no matter how much perfume you spray ona dog turd, it still smells like a dog turd.
