    The most hilarious part of the HBO commentary on Saturday night was listening to Kellerman talk about Zab Judah. Max used to have a condo on Zab's jock, so to hear him trying to talk objectively about a guy he used to have a man-crush on -- but who is best remembered for his failures -- was a treat.

    It's like listening to a girl talk about a guy she once liked but whom she still can't quite let go of. Priceless. :good

    I watched it on setanta and I am trying to get the US hbo one.
    In my opinion there is more of an atmosphere, it seems more polished than the UK's.

    Yeah the fight is on youtube now you can see the whole thing on there!
    They do big fights better than we do I think, despite Kellerman it is really good viewing, they make it feel like more of an occasion and I like the energy of it!

    I was sleeping through the Judah fight lol, by all accounts it was seriously **** anyway!

    Not to be outdone, on Setanta Steve Bunce commented that Jones' Trinidad win showed that Jones "was almost, but not quite, better than ever."

    Kellermans a jackass ....In the RJJ/Trinidad fight he was saying he looks like the Roy of old( i mean come on he looked mediocore against an overweight and seriously rusty Tinidad who by the way was actually winning the fight for 6 rounds)....Now after he said all that praising and you know Roy heard it to he wants to go and say well Roy is shot and had nothing.To me that is irresponsible commentating and niot being truthful,if he had said " hey Roy looks like **** against Tito" then maybe Roy might not have taken the Calzaghe fight because he might have started second guessing himself...Kellerman sucks

    Kellerman always blows it on the main event..he should just stick to undercard commentating...Merchant should do the main events.

    Kellerman loves Black men more than Mariah Carey, and Heidi Klum combined. I'm surprised he disnt ask RJJ for his hand in marriage after the fight.

    I liked how Kellerman started talking up Chad Dawson in the post fight. Manny Steward nailed it when he said the fight was pointless and added nothing to Calzaghes legacy. But Max was still talking him up.

    Presumably, if Calzaghe fought and beat Dawson, Kellerman would say "I know a bloke who reckons he could beat the **** out of you".
