    i wish there were more people like merchant around. you may not like him but you know where you stand with him. his words are influenced by the truth (and maybe a little whiskey) and not by the need to keep his job.

    Larry is a legend, but he is old and it takes him the whole fight to finish a couple of sentences. Like I always say though I could really careless who's announcing just as long as they are somewhat knowledgeable, because I watch Boxing to watch fights not to listen to an announcer talk.

    Why do people defend twats on here with the lazy 'he's a legend'?
    Legendary at what?Being a drunken rambling tosser?Whoopeedoo!

    Also,Whats so great and difficult about climbing in the ring to ask tired boxers awkward questions after you've merely just sat on your inebriated arse while they were fighting?Whats so heroic about that?

    Anyone who finds this bozo either clued up on boxing or entertaining in any way must've had a frontal lobotomy.
    I'm serious.
    The guy's a ****ing moron.

    When Merchant leaves, people will be begging for him back.

    In the meantime enjoy Max Kellerman's porous impression of Merchant.

    Merchants awesome. He doesn't make any sense half the time, but I think it's funny. Who'd you rather have , Lennox Lewis and Max Kellerman?
