    Seriously. I appreciated the history he detailed. One could argue his comments were more unitive than anything.

    Sucks cause the guy is pretty articulate and knows how to think and compose original commentary. Surprisingly uncommon in the world of sports these days, especially with the emphasis on more "equal" results. (See sideline reporters and studio 'quarterbacks')

    Showtime hasn’t been relevant for boxing in a long time so he should be grateful to get out of that crap company. Maybe HBO will pick him up. That’s quite possibly the worst example of cancel culture I’ve seen. That comment wasn’t offensive or insensitive in my opinion.

    I guess Devin Haney will be canceled as well for his comment.

    Paulie was a very good announcer. I enjoyed his input if he was calling a fight card I was watching. Much better than listening to Roy Jones, who’s punchy now or many of the others.

    I agree I don’t really see what was wrong about what he said.

    Is HBO back in the boxing game? I think they are out. Showtime has much more of a presence now.
