Floyd Sr., Max Kellerman, and Jim Lampley

Should not be on the mike. Floyd obviously had a lot invested in this fight and seems to have more love for Oscar than his son but he shouldn't be in the spotlight like that cause he had no real role in this fight. But HBO loves drama.Max Kellerman saying that it was a very dominant performance by Mayweather is ridiculous to me and Lampley gets excited about punches landing on the gloves and his excitement is embarrassing to listen to when he calls these punches. Oscar, Floyd, and the fans were the real winners tonight.

i thought boom boom and medina was the real fight tonight.

Exactly , the last fight was more like an encore first one was the deal deal

That was a great fight, and good effort by Hernandez too

Why is Max Kellerman even featured on a PPV show? :o

If Floyd Sr. wanted reconciliation with his son, I think his comments will just create more distance. I saw Floyd winning a close decision over Oscar. However, I was wishing some more action from Floyd. But, something is what you wish and other what you think is really going to happen. This fight was very similar to what I predicted. Oscar De La Hoya being the aggressor with Floyd using his movements and speed trying to avoid that attack.

This was a good fight of 2 very skilled fighters, but if you know their styles I don't know why some fans were expecting a brutal war between Oscar and Floyd (as the last 10 seconds of the 12). Going back to my previous statement, something is what you wish and other what you think is really going to happen. To have this type of fights you need 2 guys like Trinindad and Vargas in the same ring at the same time, who gave us the gift of one of the best wars of all times at 154 (if not the best).

Hey PRP.... what's up? You're totally correct. I was shocked at how Floyd Sr. actually implied that they could've given the decision to Oscar. If I was Floyd Jr., I'd be pissed as hell.

Damn straight!! CC to you, my friend.

i think mayweather sr had every right to comment on the fight last night. for these reasons.
1. his son who he use to train was fighting.
2. he use to train oscar
3. he's was boxer

i felt like PBF dominated for the most part also. oscar was trying to win round with flurries that weren't landing. so i agree with Max. the crowd kept getting all excited about nothing.


on a side note. who give a shit if usher pdiddy and jack nicolson are at the fight. i don't need to see them.

Halle Berry has a cute face but she's gone aged, and have you seen her zagging txxx. ehhwww. Beyonce is nice though but blind ;D

Kellerman was the only one who called it like it was rather than buying into HBO's line of selling this as a great and competitive fight and worthy of a rematch (which, coincidentally, would mean millions and millions of dollars in HBO's pockets). I can't wait until they replace Larry Merchant with Max.

everybody kept trying to build this fight like it was going to save boxing. PBF is not entertaining enough to grab the casual fan. if they wanna save boxing and bring back casual fan then they should star hyping up hatton castillo. that fight has the potetional to be a war and give the casual fan a chance to see some good action.
