    What difference does it make? Kellerman does a good job despite what many of you whining little children think.

    The haters come out in full fling.

    Like or not, but Max is groomed to replace Merchant.

    In an earlier post I referred to how direspectful Kellerman is in post fight interviews. That's not the only time he acts like a disrespectful jack ass. During Andrade/Stieglitz he asked "What are guys at this level doing on HBO?" Well, I gotta question for Max: "What is a ****king imbecile with ears like yours doing on HBO?"

    Yes -- he really said that. :patsch

    And in case you missed it: Kelly Pavlik fought Zuniga, McKart, Zertuche, Miranda, Taylor at 160, and Taylor at 166 all in the span of 2 1/2 years. Kellerman asked him, "How much longer can you go on fighting the Gary Locketts of the world?":patsch

    Well he also said Hatton beating Castillo didn't prove anything.

    Because..as we know...Hatton had a lot to prove obviously.

    These haters are just so used to senile Merchant... speaking... at... this... rate that when someone who brings a little flair to the microphone like Max, people are immediately furious.

    Because of his incessant yelling and the fact that he sounds like Kermit the Frog doing a bad Larry Merchant impression.

    because he shouts all the time, and has the extremely annoying habit of making it sound like everything he is saying is massively important!!he has no personality, and tries to make up for it with the 2 habits mentioned above!

    plus, if you are talking very loud and making it seem like what you are saying has high importance to the human race you ought to have something half-decent to say....but he says stupid things all the time!just an idiot with a microphone!

    1) If you're referring when Max is commentating during the heat of battle, then Max isn't doing anything different than other commentators.

    2) Max doesn't sound like Kermit the Frog :roll: Max has a New York, Jewish accent. New York accents are "annoying" to most outside the tri-state area. Your whole premise is silly.
