Poll: Which will happen first on HBO on May 5?

[Punisher136]

you just cant bet against merchant in these sort of things.

[Unknowndonor]

Probably Merchant. Unless, Steward talks first. Lampley will be last, just because there is an undercard.

But, this is a great thread, simply because everyone at this forum knows all three things will happen.
The question I want to know is which one of these options has the greatsest chance NOT to happen?

Lampley is a lock. Merchant depends on how many he's had already(drinks). Steward is a lock too, simply because he's the trainer, and it's his job to analyze the fighters.

So, my picks Merchant, and Merchant. Gonna miss ya Larry, even though sometimes I can't stand ya.

lamply will try to hold back tears if dlh wins he will get emotional like he did in the vargas fight,

Oh! NO he won't, if ODLH wins he will flat out cry.

The second ODLH lands flurys his voice begins to crack and he get's misty eyed.





(so do I)

SweeT Pea this is one of the funniest post I read in a while, I picked the Merchant thing

[TheBESTP4P]

Forget who's going to win, this is the most important question about this fight.

[TheBESTP4P]

i went with Jim Lampley because hes usually first to speak period, then usually emanuel steward says the solid amateur background comment then larry reminds us that he too showed up that day sometime after

[TheBESTP4P]

oh yeah and CC by the way sweet pea! keep posting these classics bro!

[LegendBoxing65]

you know in someways the way to see how this fight might unfold is to compare the young Floyd Mayweather who fought at the lower division vs. Oscar who fought Ruelas. how would that fight have turned out? Tactically it makes a better comparison.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Haha, funny topic.

I dunno who will say what 1st but im sure Larry will make a really childish and ignorant comment about the way Floyd is fighting.....

And take about half a round to say it!

[bigragu]

Merchant.....and we have two great fighters...Oscar Dela Roya and Pretty Boy Roy Mayweather...

[CutMeMick]

Oddly enough none of these things happened.

[TheBESTP4P]

Oddly enough none of these things happened.

i wouldnt know the fat asssses in the bar was so loud i couldnt even hear jack from the production team at all?

[Punisher136]

merchant messed up a nickname and you could hear lampley holding back back the joy in his voice everytime oscar threw a flurry but none of them landed cleanly enough for him to let it out.

[BigMix27]

Steward mentions that both guys have "solid amateur backgrounds"

Obviously. This probably won't even be close...Steward in a landslide.

That's how I voted.
Normally I would agree that it'd be Steward in a landslide, but I think Lampley has a good chance here. Oscar has only fought 6 rounds in the last 3 years. Lampley must be ready to explode by now, he has so much bottled-up manlove for Oscar inside of him.
