When he did that he was trying to evoke emotion. Unfortunately he often didn't have a pulse on a fight. He definitely could craft a story, though, and that's what made him brilliant. I would love for him to go to Pbc/fox but it won't happen; Lampley is loyal and honestly it's come across many times to me that he is bitter about showtime and the Mayweather Saga as being the impetus and precursor to the demise of HBO boxing. I remember during that joint PPV with Mayweather/Pacquaio he got mad as hell when he had to promote a Thurman fight afterwards and in turn said something snarky to Al Bernstein. Al Bernstein gave that nikka the :rudy::camby::mjgrin:

Thurman fukked that up when he lost to Manny. You don't get a shot at the top dog after coming off a loss like that. That's not how it works.
Actually, Thurman does get a title shot because he's still owed one.

Remember, Thurman voluntarily relinquished the WBC belt when he got hurt. He never lost that belt and he was told that when he got back he would get another shot. Keith even mentioned it the other day, talking about how he could make a call to the WBC at any time and get that title shot

He stiffed them so it is what it is.........At that point leaving HBO for showtime.......HBO at that point would've added a half milly to about each of Floyds last fight off the strength of Floyd Merchant fukkery alone

Of yeah Fukk Floyd Manny HBO and Showtime for that debacle of a set up for the match of the generation; thats why the fight came off dull imo, the set up was dry as fukk and no coverage, the fight was high level chess otherwise though....:manny:

the floyd merchant fukkery wasnt a good look.
that was right after max had mosley confront him after his first win after retirement
they were always asking him stupid questions post fignt and were always playing little games behind the scenes.
its one thing to build a fight, but the way they rolled with pacquaio and arum over him that time is why they lost him.
shoulda kept it neutral
