    Max and Teddy may be annoying, but at least I can tell that they love the sport.

    Guys like Larry Merchant who IMO are just there for a paycheck are the ones I hate. Guys who spend no time getting to know the sport even though they've been watching it for years and years. Same with Jim Lamphley, even though I like him, he still comes across as uneducated when it comes to boxing from my point of view. I am not sure if he's ever tried boxing before or not, but he comes across as the type of commentator who doesn't truly know whats going on.

    That's very true. I can't stand Max but hell the guy is passionate abou the game and in all truthfulness is pretty damn good at what he does. His serial killer eyes though freak me out.

    Larry Merchant I am still hoping will drop dead in front of the camera one night; just pause and look at the floor; then clutch his chest and fall into the camera. F#cked up thing is I'll probably miss the old croaker when he's gone.

    An example is the Pacquiao vs Hatton fight. It was a big event and the HBO crew were practically asleep there.

    Atlas would have been freaking out. He would not have been able to contain himself. That is why I like him because he lives and breaths boxing. He might dumb it down in there for the casual viewer, but he is all about boxing.

    I can't stand Teddy but I thought he did a better job than usual last night.

    His analysis on the George-Henry fight was pretty right on IMO and the Hawk-Godfrey fight was just so unbelievably boring because Hawk refused to fight for the most part that Teddy just kind of rambled on and was funny a few times. It bothers me when Teddy rambles during a good fight, but what was he supposed to say last night, "hmm lets see Hawk is still not throwing punches, back to you"

    He can be annoying, but I like him. Out of all the boxing commentators out there, you can tell with him it is just not a job, it is a pure passion. He loves the boxing game and you can feel his enthusiasm.
