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.

    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.
