Email HBO To Get That Farce Max Kellerman Off The Air............

Exactly. You have neatly summarized EXACTLY what is wrong with Kellerman, and why HBO needs to replace him with someone qualified!!

Someone like AL BERNSTEIN, for example....Wouldn't boxing fans rather have the BEST commentator in the sport at boxing's flagship network??

 

Great - let's keep 'em coming in. HBO bowed to public pressure in retaining Merchant, perhaps they'll bow to public pressure and get rid of Kellerman!:happy

 

Ha ha ha, what a loser !!! :tired:tired:tired

 

Not that I have to jusify myself - as ANY boxing fan has the RIGHT to express his disastisfaction with Kelllerman's inept commentary, but as a thirty year boxing fan I have never seem commentator so utterly unqualified as Kellerman.

HBO should have the best boxing commentators in the industry, not some unqualfied HACK who, along amoug commentators NEVER did any thing to acquire the experience and seasoning to qualify him for such a critcal position in the sport. It an uttter DISCRACE to the sport that thye just handed the job to the most utterly inexperienced and unqualified commentator in the sport. And boxing fans should be outraged that the job is being given to this incompetent hack on the basis of family connections. THat's just WRONG, and bad for the sport!!

We MUST stop this travesty. EMail HBO and let's get this twerp off tje air, before more damaged in done to this fine sport:

Get out of boxing. Kellerman is typical of the newer type of sportscaster. Boxing is just still mainly full of older guys. Many commentators for other sports have zero print experience. I would prefer that all commentators have some serious journalist experience, but it's not typical of the newer guys coming up.

Besides, Kellerman got started with his public access show pretty young. It's not like he came up through journalism. Yeah that's another example of the self hyping apect of his career, but that's the new breed of sportscaster.

My point isn't so much his qualifications. It's that there has been a holy jihad declared against him for saying what a lot of people also think as an assessment of the fight. I know Hatton fans have a crush on him like a teenage girl dreaming about Drake Bell (I have a teenage daughter, don't get any ideas), but the fact is that Castillo looked like crap from the opening bell... just like he looked in his previous two fights. Saying that the wars have worn him down isn't disprectfull... it's a fact.

 

****in comedy those 2.

 

Alright. I can concede that point. I took his commentary as a part of the whole, which included Manny saying that Castillo looked bad from the beginning of round 1.

I can't defend the guy too much. I personally don't like him. I just saw the email campaign to unseat him as clearly motivated by a bunch of Hattonites who are pissed he said mean things about their boyfriend

Besides, how can anyone get upset about him when the likes of Jim Grey still has a job?

 

Exactly - what HBO needs is a verteran, experienced commenatator who can provide insight into the sport, someone who has PAID DUES working as a boxing journalist and has therefore acquired some experience and knowledge about the sport. Not some wet-behind the ears punk who got his job handed to him because of family connections. It's an utter travesty that HBO would force this inpompetent pipsqueak on the boxing public and we can only hope they correct this mistake soon

Public pressure brought Merchant back, and we can get force HBO to replace Kellerman with someone qualified, too:

I like Kellerman. He shows passion for the sport. He also brings up the things that the more-than-casual fan is interested in.

The only thing I don't like about Kellerman are his post-fight interviews. Unless he's putting a fighter on the spot for a dubious effort or decision, his questions come off as uninteresting.

But as an analyst, he's observant, passionate, and sometimes insightful.

Just remember, Howard Cossell was absolutely hated when he first came on the air and now we realize he was the start of a new generation of announcers.

 

For cryin' out load, let's get rid of this incompetent PUNK and replace him with a SEASONED and EXPERIENCED commentator who has actual EARNED the job, like AL BERNSTEIN!!!!!

Wow, I thought I disliked Kellerman. You straight up hate him, man.

 

Its called an unhealthy obsession and cyber stalking !!!

 

Boxing has bigger problems than Kellerman. Why don't you try to fix those ??? Actually Kellerman isn't a problem with boxing, some people just don't prefer him. Just like Merchant, Atlas, or Bernstien. For everyone that doesn't like him, there is someone somewhere that does. If you don't like Kellerman, don't watch the show. But trying to get a man fired from his job, just because you don't like him, and when he has done nothing wrong is just plain petty and shows how much of a punk you are. Hopefully sometime soon, someone will try to get you fired from your taco bell job, because they don't like you !!!

 

HBO should get Sean O'Grady, the Champ does it better than anybody.

 

Thank you sir!!!! Boxing fans need to campaign and campaign HARD to get a COMPETENT commentator for the flagship network of USA boxing - someone like AL BERNSTEIN!!!

Send in those emails, let's get RID of that annoying TWERP!!!!!:happy:happy:happy
