will hbo boxing die with Emmanuel Stewart?

All in all it seems you just like Steward better than others. Roy is pretty damn good for a country boy from Florida. And he never Merchant get away with saying something ridiculous. I'm glad HBO didn't renew that bitter old man.

Nah not at all. I love roy as a commentator. I love his southern colloquialisms.

Yeah HBO boxing is dead, Merchant pissed Schaefer and Mayweather off so much that all of GB fights are now on Showtime, HBO tried to fire Merchant post Manny ko but they made they bed, and put all their eggs into Manny's basket choosing to spew propaganda for TR, it's all down hill from here, with GB controlling majority of the sports stars.......





As far as Stewart goes, I got tired of him have to shut his mouth about his opinions and play a house boy forced to support the networks agenda, listening to his commentary in the last few years, you get the feeling that he was getting tired of the shyt too, Manny vs JMM 3 is a perfect example, HBO demise started before he passed

Good post

 

[GMOGMediaTV]

Absolutely not.

 

[mastermind]

You idiots do realize that HBO boxing has been around for nearly 40 years.


I think they will survive without Emmanuel Steward.

So? Anyways I hope the quality doesn't diminish

 

[Jello Biafra]

I like Roy on there.
What HBO should do is go find Sean O'Grady...dude was great on the old USA Tuesday Night Fights show. He could alternate with Roy as the ex-boxer/analyst.

I cant see it, all the fights are over at showtime these days, with the loaded GB cards, Unless you like to watch shytty as Top Rank events.




Shame at HBO slurping up and forcing boring ass Donaire on us, now let Donaire had of been a black fighter like Mayweather or Alexander and those string of 5 or so boring ass matches, fighter of the year my ass . Like I said they messed up doing the bidding of TR cause of their hate for Floyd, and Oscar and Schaef took their services elsewhere and shocked and awed them before HBO even began to posture.


I cant see it getting better for HBO, they used to be fair and biased before they took sides, look at the BHOP Roy fiasco, they actually had interviews for the world to see who's ducking who, and the world seen BHOP wanted no parts of it at that time, fast forward to the Manny Mayweather controversy they jump down May's throat, bring nikkas in the ring at the end of Mayweathers dominating performances, and all to defame his name, when Manny was the ducking drug test and building obstacles like small ring gloves, 10 million pound penalties, 50/50 blah blah blah.........The Shift happened years ago where HBO started to head down the wrong path. I just cant see it getting better

HBO hasn't had an unbiased announce team for years. To a man they were all riding DeLaHoya's dikk back when he was fighting ike they were in his family or something. The shyt was sickening.
And I don't get the hate for Donaire, makes no sense to me at all.

How could I forget Oscar bias, but you have to remember he was a TR fighter majority of his career, and that goes back to my point regarding TR and HBO.



As far as Donaire goes he is boring, fighting over matched opponents in a shytty class, and look human do so, I watch all boxing and fell asleep in like Donaires last 5 matches. Now with him ducking Mares getting called out on it by GB and ESPN Dan raefeal the wolves is out on his ass

 

[Malta]

They had Andre Ward doing commentary on the last card, and he was really good, seems like he'll be there go to guy now.

 

[Tide Run This]

HBO lost trying to hype Alexander vs Bradley up to be an epic showdown a couple years ago.


They pushed too many boring non drawing ass fighters for too long. Why the fukk is Bernard Hopkins still getting main event cards on HBO?

Best HBO announce team is Papa,Roy and Max

Arum Not Sold on Golden Contract For Donaire-Mares - Boxing News

shyt like this is what I mean, Arum is using owing favors to HBO as a reason to not make the Donaire Mares fight, which would have been those fighters highest paydays. Nobody can take HBO serious when they are contributing in ruining the sport and helping Arum with his agenda..........

I do agree with you that their relationship with Arum is all kinds of fukked up and somebody needs to rethink it. Allowing Bob to get his bootleg Don King on with their network is ridiculous.

 

[Born2BKing]

Roy Jones Jr is a much better commentator than Stewart ever was.
