[Kirkland Laing]

Ha. Google proves I'm not tripping. It really is Merchant with somebody called Dave Bontempo.

Why the fuck are we hearing about Mayweather - Guerrero?

Cos they're having problems selling it. HBO Mayweather-Cotto episode 2 -- 490 000 viewers. Showtime All Acess episode 2 -- 62 000 viewers.

Showtime has really improved their programing since Floyd got on-board, too bad their announcers are still shit.

Its Ranello (sp?) I think Kenny was always solid, Bernstein too. Paulie actually has insight if not a shit hairdo

That's interesting, Larry must be getting senile now, working for another Net, makes me think HBO cut him loose. FWIW, Dave Bontempo has been around for a while.

cheers Kirk.

Though I'm picking trout to win I just have one hope. Please lords of boxing don't let this fight end with controversy.

[Violent Demise]

How much time they gonna fucking kill? The blame for this shit falls on one person and one person only. Abner Cotto. If he wouldn't of crashed and burned and actually put up a fight they wouldn't have to do this

Bernstien is OK, i've just never cared for Pauli, either as a boxer or as an announcer, I like Kenny just fine, Rannelo I can't stomach.

They seriously need to get that kid under some sun lamps...or sun.

It would be funny as hell if Guerrero upset Mayweather, but not likely, the Mexican NA, sucks ass doesn't it.

I may need a Guinness if I can find one.

[DavilaJones]

Oh for god sake stop teasing Showtime.

[Spicoli]

do we really need commercials during a live intro ?

Gingers and the sun don't go well together. Have you ever seen a group of people including a ginger or two suddenly exposed to bright light? The gingers react completely differently. They just can't take sunlight like normal people can.
