He sounded very weak, and wondered if there was something wrong. Obviously there was.
RIP.
Aww, that’s too bad. Loved listening to his scoring and commentary during fights. Missed his last fights and didn’t notice he was getting weaker. R.I.P.
HBO stopped its broadcasts about 3 months ago. e was their expert and scored the fight and explained his numbers which the actual judges do not.
Lederman was clueless when it came to boxing.
His lack of competence was a joke among experienced boxing people.
Okay...I gotta tell you something, Jim....
“Now let’s go to the judges’ scorecards to see how they viewed the death...”
Howard Cosell with the call....
“Down Goes Lederman....Down Goes Lederman.....Down Goes Lederman”
RIP.
I had it 138-135 in favor or cancer before the fight was stopped...
