Exactly. Jim Lampley is a fountain of knowledge when it comes to boxing. I met him in Atlantic City New Jersey and he is an amazing person. Very nice and humble
I really miss his show on HBO the Fight game! A commentator as professional and as good as him deserved to have had his own show. All kudos to HBO for hiring him as one of their boxing commentators, he carried alot of their fights with his magnificent and majestic voice!!!
That's Jim Lampley for you! His greatness has always shone through, his commentary brimming with richness and depth. Keep it up, Jim Lampley! Thanks for your consistently enlightening words.
Took a road too high. Everyone loves Oscar for what he said. He didn’t say anything wrong. He has been verbally attacked by Canelo for years. And more than ever in the lead up to this fight. Oscar is still a fighter. He’s a fighter first. And he finally fought back. His words KOed everything that Canelo has ever said about him. He’s proven that he is the real fighter. While Canelo is here taking an easy fight
Facts SA been the one that can't let it go. ODLH tried making peace but SA keeps trashing him. Since the fight started SA has been trashing ODLH. Oscar finally let him have it, I'm glad he finally told him something to his face.
@G_C00921 if you don’t know that Canelo’s been verbally attacking Oscar for years without reason, why are you talking? You don’t know boxing? You don’t see Canelo lash out at everyone constantly? And attack people verbally and physically? He does it to every stupid
@G_C00921 you understand that the PBC split and Canelo moving up are separated by many years. And that Canelo left Goldenboy years before moving up to 168. Your entire timeline is wrong
@G_C00921canelo is definitely the type to insult. That clown is getting insulted more and more everyday. Mr I don’t fight Mexicans contradicts himself every time he opens his mouth.
Oscar got humiliated just look at his face expressions there is nothing he can do Canelo the face of boxing and brings in the money Oscar needs to shut the fuk up before Canelo takes his fighters under his promotion haha
I like Oscar he was a dogg in that ring and no matter the losses he never ducked a single soul and all the fights he lost were close except for that PAC fight but to me Oscar was already done and drained himself to make weight Oscar paved the way for all these fighters to so call have their own promotional company straight trailblazer
To all of you young guys out there. A friend tells the truth...and doesn't encourage bad acting or behavior. Doesn't mean he's opposed to you personally, but is reminding you of a higher standard of behavior that has relapsed because of uncontrolled EGO.
@@JohnDoeWesside213 the man said he has the proof to protect himself from being sued. Why would he say that if he didn’t have the proof? What’s weird is after all of Oscar’s bs stunts y’all still give the mfkr the benefit of the doubt 😂
Oscar is bigger than Canelo. Oscar made all these fights millionairs, Mayweather included. Oscar did build canelos career. He brought Canelo to the states without ruling Mexico like other mexican do before come to the States. He made canelo a star.
If I remember correctly golden boy was at the edge of going under if it wasn’t for canelo, especially after the majority of his top fighters had left golden boy, most likely due to the same reason that canelo left. (Oscar was stealing from his fighters). If anything Oscar should be grateful that canelo kept golden boy on the map for the decade to come. Even now canelo is the face of boxing, and he accomplished that without golden boy. Which I can’t say for many other fighters that came and went under golden boy.
Canelo was already established somewhat in Mexico you have to remember his family have connections they go deep in this sport. Oscar always beefing with his fighters too doesn’t look good for him while Canelo is always respectful.
@@silvercomet5330cap never going under shaefer left golden boy and tried taking the roster with him to pbc.. Pbc was a threat to all promotional company's..But that's it idk whats all this extra stuff you're rambling about.
@tonyazzaro9593 How can you say that if it wasn't for Oscar those fighters would not have been prize fighters on their own through other promotors. Maybe you should fly to the moon. Sounds like just because he fought two of them he made their careers .
@tonyazzaro9593 Manny would have done fine. Floyd just as well .Canelo has been fighting since he was pretty much a tween. But think what you will it's your opinion.
Jim Lampley, Roy Jones Jr, George Foreman, and the man myth and legend, Larry Merchant. Those were the best boxing commentator group of boxing. Bar none. His advice and take on the DLH meltdown is absolutely correct.
Jim you are great i appreciate your advise to oscar . it is been a long time provoking canelo . canelo only defended himself. He had enough period. Canelo is undisputed very few are like him fact
You still don’t get it, if someone be little you, I assure you would defend yourself unless you’re a wuss. That’s not getting under someone skin, that’s you not letting the aggressor bully you.
Fighters make a lot of money.. but promoters and trainers are like fathers to these people... When they live like fathers irrespective of the differences the remain bigger and earn themselves lots of respect. The need the trust of younger fighters
I'll translate for Lampley, "Dear Oscar, you robbed Canelo in his fight purses, just brush it off by remaining silent, and simply dont comment on it and incriminate yourself.
Oscar did more than canelo for boxing good or bad but did everything multiple divisions fought everyone was not afraid of losing won gold now is a top promoter if canelo got all those jabs he now need to take the hook
In all fairness, I believe CANELO's experience, technique, and power will be too much for Jaime Munguía. Don't get me wrong, I may be devastating wrong, but I don't see MUGUíA beating CANELO.
Oscar is absolutely correct!!! Just needs to take the HIGH road. He's at a different level in his career now. That includes professionalism, role model, boxing ambassador, like Lampley said majestic. If he chooses to get into the weeds. He will most likely delay his overall goal of Greatest Boxing Promoter. Blessings Always!!!
Canelo is chill until you dis him. Somebody started and from what I saw Hoya was saying a lot of stuff in the pre fight. A prime Canelo > prime Hoya, A prime Chavez > Hoya. Facts
I’ve always been a Canelo fan but as of late he’s been avoiding Benevidez and he did the same with GGG and the immediate rematch. Canelo is a diva who is taking the safe route just like Mayweather. Oscar on the other hand had balls and took on all the smoke win or lose.
Jim, respectfully Oscar is a promoter and Canelo has been running his mouth. Any man would be proud that Oscar said that in front of Canelo. Not thin skinned, just big kahunas!
I strongly disagree. Oscar did nothing wrong. Did he tell one lie?? All he did was stand up for himself and called clenelo out on his bs. Clenelo has been disrespecting oscar for awhile now and oscar sat back and did nothing. Good for him.

I miss the old times watching HBO
Makes maybe a million of us?
Agree.
me too bro!
Yup, same
HBO boxing was the best network also remembering the ppv fights and cookouts or having pizza and wings unforgettable fights we would order on ppv
Larry Merchant as well 👍🏼
this guy's voice just makes me think of boxing

Yep
No he's not
Jimmy Jacobs
he said ryan is bigger than mayweather a few days ago...that didnt age well...
Jim We all can't be as perfect as you don't criticize DeLaHoya
I can listen to this guy all day. I miss his broadcasting on HBO
Jim….we are getting old my man…always appreciate your work…
Really wish we could hear Jim call this fight man. It’s that type of blow by blow exciting fight.
Agree
Pause lol
JIM LAMPLEY is very knowledgeable in boxing and conducts himself with class and common sense.

That's Jim Lampley for you! His greatness has always shone through, his commentary brimming with richness and depth. Keep it up, Jim Lampley! Thanks for your consistently enlightening words.
If you own a Company, you should hold yourself in higher regard ... people do work under you. Not a good move by Oscar, I agree with Jim🥊🔥💯
A promoter (Oscar) single-handedly permeated the mind and peace of his fighter’s opponent 💥💥💥💥 THAT IS GENIUS NEW ERA SH** 💥💥💥💥
My favorite boxing announcer of all time. I miss this guy 😢😢
This was exactly the place and moment for Oscar to do what he did, it was way overdue, and it helped him, at least in my book!
When Jim lampley speaks everybody listens, very wise man, that goes to all de la Hoya followers
Bags and bags of class. Just how much this man is missed. Enjoy your retirement sir.
Man you can really tell that Jim loves his friend, and that he would be a great mentor to anybody
He's not afraid to use straight talk. A lot of these youngsters need someone like that to provide a voice of reason.
Classy as always Mr. Lampley 🥊
Que buen hombre es Jim Lampley
Well spoken Mr. Lampley
Lampley is Boss.
Lampley was spot on as usual. The guy is a word smith.
Definitely a voice of reason.
I do I think it’s time Oscar stud up

Exactly bro! Even longer than that actually! Enough is enough. Great moment for Oscar. Lampley hasn’t been watching TH-cam I see.
Oscar a thief

Refused to fight Trinidad at 154

Miss the old school HBO days. Head and shoulders above these new broadcasts.
Pumped for this one
That is so true thank you Jim
How does Oscar let it go?
He's losing millions not promoting Canelo anymore. 😢
Bro golden boy existed before Canelo and will exist after Canelo and Oscar are long gone.
RYAN
@@JohnDoeWesside213if that’s the case then why did Oscar try stealing money from Canelo to pay off his own personal debt with other fighters?

That's right!!!
Excellent advise! My hat off to Jim Lampley. Oscar, you better than that. Move on my brother.
🐐… please get this man back into play by play ASAP!!!
Great advice Jim
DLH is what most casual and hardcore boxing fans consider to be the best ever. This is in terms of exciting and memorable moments in the ring.
Sometimes Legends like myself just need to try to be the bigger person. Great advice from the Living Legend 👏
A real legend right here Mr. Jim, boxing back in the day was a lot better than nowadays
As always, Lampley displays wise an honest opinion of petty conflicts.
if i was ever a boxer i would have loved to have jim lampley calling my fights. he's the goat...
Without De La Hoya there's no canelo, Pacquiao or Mayweather. Not the way we know them today 😅
Really? I'm sure you are a great student of pugilism and historian.
@@victormora3168
By your logic, would I also need to go to the moon to know it's not made out of cheese? 😅😅😅😅🤣

@victormora3168
Look at their career earnings and overall recognition before and after De La Hoya getting on their path and come back to me... 😅
@tonyazzaro9593 Manny would have done fine. Floyd just as well .Canelo has been fighting since he was pretty much a tween. But think what you will it's your opinion.
This is my favorite announcer
It's personal. Jim, they've been taking shots at each other canelo been taking a lot of shots at him so he just got tired of it
Savvy words from a savvy man….not just for Oscar but for all of us, something we can learn and take with us.
As a real De la Hoya fan i like this real version of De La Hoya. Lampley can go sit in a rocking chair and count the grass.
For all of you youngins ,jim lampley had the best hair in boxing back in the day.
I thought Oscar venting in Canelo was pretty cool.. it certainly HYPED up the fight for me
CLASS personified.
The ability of this gentleman to articulate the ins and outs of boxing is unmatched
Jim Lampley, Roy Jones Jr, George Foreman, and the man myth and legend, Larry Merchant. Those were the best boxing commentator group of boxing. Bar none.
His advice and take on the DLH meltdown is absolutely correct.
Have to disagree. When you suppress your feelings, you're only hurting yourself. Oscar reached his boiling point. It had to be said
Jim you are great i appreciate your advise to oscar . it is been a long time provoking canelo . canelo only defended himself. He had enough period. Canelo is undisputed very few are like him fact
Jim is correct, Oscar needs to rise above all the BS, no one can damage his accomplishments except himself.
The voice of boxing from my childhood
Oscar de la hoya was a hell of a fighter back then people dont remember...
Jim is just speaking bs here come on man
Heard no bs here. Don’t know what you was hearing. Prolly off that coke like Oscar
@@nahumsegura9475🤣 foreal
Fighters think different, there's massive ego very few can shed even long after they are done.
Oscar got under Alvarez skin so easily. He let Alvarez show the prick he truly is.
You still don’t get it, if someone be little you, I assure you would defend yourself unless you’re a wuss. That’s not getting under someone skin, that’s you not letting the aggressor bully you.
@@CaptainMarvel007definitely got under Canelos skin. This will affect him fight night.
@@AspiePilo82 bunch of smoking’ mirrors, speculation, delusional. Nonetheless, one may dream!
The new oscar is awesome ! I loved how he told canelo off
Well said. Hopefully Oscar realizes he’s what Canelo will never be. No need to go back and forth with him.
Jim!!
JIm is one of the best commentators of all time. Such an icon in the boxing world.
As a fighter Oscar will be remembered as an all time great ,unfortunately as a promoter that won't be the case .

Best advice ever to delajoya
Canelo will never reach Sal Sanchez or Chavez level
He already passed them up
CANELO 👏👏#1 .
Ok Jim!
I remember oscar running from Trinidad. Run oscar run.
Sorry Jim, but thats not the Mexican/ Chicano way. He blasted Canelo in person to show him that he's not scared.
Nah Oscar was spot on.
Man, Oscar been running his mouth for years !
U sound stupid 🤣
Wow... Oscar actually has friends that care about him... He needs to listen
De la Hoya is selling the fight better than Canelo/Munguia, they can thank him for the extra PPV buys.
Oscar did more than canelo for boxing good or bad but did everything multiple divisions fought everyone was not afraid of losing won gold now is a top promoter if canelo got all those jabs he now need to take the hook

True. But is this relevant?
At what weight?
maybe, but this is not about boxing
I see Canelo Álvarez promotions coming soon
Miss Lampley and Merchant calling ring side
In other words Oscar don't lower yourself to Canelo's level.
The best boxing analyst of "All Time".
Had destiny not dealt SALVADOR SáNCHEZ a bad hand, he would have been the greatest Mexican fighter in boxing history.
