I have not liked Larry Merchant all the way back to when he was sports editor of a Philly newspaper. In my opinion (and remeber you asked), he is a mean spirited dimuntive (130 pound) guy frustrated athlete who subconciously has a lot of anger against boxers. His constant need to see a slug fest is one indication as is his acrimony toward BHOP and/or PBF who don't fight in the approved Merchant manner. But all that aside, I have several vignettes that I refer to in my book and I just as soon not disclose them here. Suffice it to say that what he did to Sonny Liston after Liston destroyed Patterson back in the day was the single cruelest thing I have ever seen a scribe do. Larry reminds me of those guys I went to shool with or worked with who always liked to get a laugh off of someone's eles's misfortune. And as an athlete myself (Football, Baseball and Boxing) he also reminds me of guys we used to refer to as jock sniffers. I think they are referred to as something else these days. Aside from that, I don't like him.
