He is a great listener and was never to proud to admit he was wrong about something. He's up there with the best play by play guys in any sport in my opinion. I will miss his voice and his style more than anything. He called all the biggest and best fight. Thanks for all the memories Jim!

      Fuck that guy he was biased against canelo and I’ve heard people say he was biased against mayweather too. Listen I’m fine with someone calling a fight like it is. I don’t expect someone to be bias in favor of canelo because he’s the cash cow, but when you’re so constantly biased against him you make the stupid casuals at home think he lost his fight to GGG badly because you call fights in such a biased way that you have the home fans feelings like it’s 10 rounds to 2. Canelo definitely lost the first fight by 1-2 rounds but it was a close fight not the robbery all these stupid casuals were crying about. Canelo won the 2nd fight and you still had casuals screaming robbery ... why ... cause of Jim lampleys stupid commentary. It has impact on the home audience and at the end only affects the sport. Watch any canelo fight that jim lampley calls and you could just hear the dislike. Canelo could be absolutely dominating and if you’re just going by what lampley is saying you’d think he was getting beat tf up

He's human and has his own opinion. 90 percent of the fans are biased when they watch these matches and I'm willing to bet half the judges are too seeing as how Fury should've won against Wilder. Lampley has no power in deciding a fight so why do you all care abiut that aspect about him so much? You could've just muted the tv when he was on

      Alex Lopez I’m 35 years old I’ve been following boxing studying learning, and been boxing my whole life since I was 4 years old.
      No dis respect to you but I’ve been following the politics of the sport for years. The politics is just one aspect of boxing. What I was speaking about is the racism. The bias opinions of the commentators who influence the mass public, or casual and even core fans of the sport in a major way. This man has ruin himself and HBO. HBO boxing was destroyed from the inside-out. Due to the racism that the network allowed this man to display on live Tv covering a diverse sport. Which was foolish and counterproductive for business. See what people need to understand is that black people are not dumb. We can see a feel the racism weather in our personal lives or throughout the world abroad. We know what’s up. Maybe you don’t know but boxing has been racist from the start. Boxing started out just like all the other American sport without letting black men perform. Baseball, basketball, football, etc. For example the movie king was based on the life of a black Heavy weight Champion named Jack Johnson. Just do a little research and you will see.
      Jumping back to the present state of boxing. It’s a racist if not even more than it was in its history. Now in the beginning I was a fan of Jim lampley until he became corrupted by Larry Merchant and his network. Yes HBO is held accountable also. Because they allowed this foolishness to go on for so many years. Yes of course they did just think about it racism and the controversy surrounding it sells. Back to Lampley he started out okay then he was corrupted so was Max he is no different. He just knew how to hide it slightly.
      Jim constantly criticized Floyd Mayweather who is and was the best fighter in the 30 years. Possibly the best boxer to ever live from a technical stand point. He talked about Floyd abusing women. We he himself abused his wife. He is also an alcoholic. Now I was taught don’t throw rocks if you live in a glass house. Simply put the man let his personal opinion of black people cloud his judgement and ruin his profession. No doubt about and that’s facts. Have a good day. 💪🏾✌🏾

      They don’t give a fuck, he’s always bubbling like a bitch, annoying as fuck to be honest

      Living Legend - they’re probably used to it. Jim probably calls Roy and Larry at night crying about nothing. So they have to hang up on him all the time. 😂😂😂
