Horrible night by Kellerman. He is woefully inadequate for HBO he should be removed immediately or demoted to smaller shows. He is not worthy to represent and be a voice for our sport. John Scully, Kevin Kelley, Hopkins, even JOhn McEnroe would be better. Kellerman may be a good person, nice guy, well versed in boxing history but he sucks as an HBO commentator and interviewer for big fights. Point blank, he sucks.
Guys, I have been saying this for some time now, I really think HBO should consider Harvey Keitel as the ring announcer to replace Larry. The guy looks good in a tux, talks smoothly with that old world gangster confidence, and if you mouth off to him, he will have you crushed in car compactor. All done with class of course.
Kellerman can come up with good questions, thats fine. But why is he trying to control or stop the face off and standoff between bernard, mosley and mayweather?? This sport is boxing, its about fighting, its about facing off, its about blood guts and wars, its about CONFLICT. . Can you explain to me what is wrong with a little tension or conflict in the post fight interview??? NO because it would have made for great TV, fanfare, because it is what boxing is all about. Why is Kelllerman acting like this is his show, or that hes baby-sitting, or were watching a reserved /tame (*****!) NFL/NBA interview? I'm sorry but Kellerman was completely in the wrong. A news reporter or commentators job is to comment or report on the news. The boxing stars make the news, he needs to let them square off and get out of the ****ing way, nobody paid to see him.
Kellerman is a pompous fool, and a condescending interviewer. Floyd had one thing right; Kellerman talks too much. Instead of letting the interview continue, Max got insulted and stopped the interview short. Proof that he believes himself to be more important than the boxer he's talking to. Such garbage! There was some magic happening there in the PBF/SSM exchange that Max could have riffed off of. Instead, he ruins it because he's a jerk. Bring back Merch!
It looked like some staged pro-wrestling thing, kind of embarassing at this level of boxing, agree Kellerman is a nob-end too
Kellerman sucks, and it was funny how he almost **** himself when he got caught in the middle of that scrum. **** him, he has no credentials to comment on boxing, let alone be handed a job as a boxing commentator on HBO.
