As others have said, there were plenty of times where Foreman would pick a side and be incredibly biased. He did it during Trinidad-Hopkins, he also completely favored Oscar when he fought Quartey, and then during DLH-Vargas he kept bashing Floyd Sr the whole time.
The Oscar-Quartey fight was the worst. First off, I'm not sure he had ever seen Quartey fight before that, even if he had called fights of his previously. He wrote Quartey's jab off as average "not one of the jabs from the 40's, 50's or 60's like Oscar has" That was awwffuullll. My favorite exchange in the commentary that bout was when Quarteywas at the end of a dominating round, one of the real clear cut rounds in the fight and Foreman was at the end of an Oscar rant.

Merchant: But Oscar isn't doing anything this round George.
Foreman: Not much is a lot for Oscar De La Hoya.

As much shit as Lampley gets forr being pro De La Hoya, Foreeman was exponentially worse. The one fight I can recall where he wasn't overly pro-Oscar was against Camacho of all people.
