    Max Kellerman has always been a Roy Jones shill. He once claimed that Roy would have beat Joe Frazier. Kellerman has as much credibility as some of our resident forum Glass Jaw Roy nuthuggers.

    Haha I must have missed that Steward quote, he is getting on a bit now so i'll give him the benefit of the doubt!

    Kellerman is a bit of a tool!

    I'd still rather listen to inaccurate commentary on hbo than the rubbish and idiotic shambolic inadequate commentators they spew out on uk TV.

    I don't mind Bunce too much at least he has knowledge but the rest are shockingly bad.

    Setanta should just run HBO's coverage, it would save paying for the idiots they employ at the moment.

    Just because you are an ex boxer doesn't mean you make a good commentator most of them are bumbling and downright embarrassing.

    I usually support Max Kellerman, but he did a horrible job in this fight. The chemistry does not seem to be there between him and Lampley.

    It is almost too competitive at times with them trying to call each other out on their mistakes.

    Emamuel is also clueless, jumping on the band wagon of whoever is winning the fight at the moment.

    Damn I miss Larry, hell Lenox also brings some entertainment value that seems to be lacking.

    HBO needs to address some of these issues.

    It sucked and they did not call it fairly.

    I've never heard Larry Merchant commentate, I think Lampley is good to be fair and the whole programme is better than Setanta's.
    Why doesn't Merchant commentate anymore then?

    woodhall didn't know who emanuel agustus was, and they thought that figueroa started the dancing. very poor boxing knowledge.
