Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

I think I'm just growing tired of the HBO crew, honestly.

Bernstein & Paulie
Jim Gray in the post fights

Even starting to prefer the classy Jimmy Lennon Jr.

I don't recall ANY showtime fights that I had to turn the volume all the way off from being annoyed like I have to with hbo.

No nikkas calling Phantom Punches.

No BANG BANG BANG

No *insert hbo fighter they dikkriding at the moment* mention in fights that don't have shyt to do with him or that division. They have even been doing it with Loma who I'm a big fan of

I prefer Showtime all day, the only dudes on hbo I fukk with are Roy and Ward commentary wise.

Tim Bradley Jr. teaches Guy Robb distance, pretty cool

So Robb is listed as a Featherweight and 5'6" BoxRec...he looks bigger than Bradley, especially in height.

Such a great post

Jim Lampley's phantom punches kill me. Nygga will say Fighter A landed a great right hand, that was blocked or completely missed.

Showtime just has more professionalism while HBO takes more of a businesslike approach to sell certain fighters to their audience. There is nothing genuine when it comes to HBO commentating. Those guys are just playing a role. Once I had the opportunity years ago to hear the HBO's staff "real opinion" on boxing, I came to realize they know their shyt & are just playing the game by being company men. You would think the HBO team was dumb as fukk if thats all you had to go by, but being around the game as long as they've had, you surely gonna pick up something.

So guys like Lampley, Kellerman, etc aren't dumb guys. They just play the game & collect the checks.
