So. . .HBO team was directly incriminating Roach to my ear. Anyone else think that?

    Max Kellerman is to Boxing commentary what Bela Lugosi was to the film industry.

    What the hell was wrong with Bela Lugosi, he was a damn fine actor. And I've seen around 20 of his films so I would know.

    I find Kellerman creepy when he's looking at the camera talking with his eyes wide open.

    No, They were just saying that being around that many tough guys in the gym you have to up your game. If you spar someone like Ruslan you need something to keep him off of you. That and Freddy as a trainer may have helped him some with his technique to get a little more leverage perhaps. Also how many times have we seen guys with so so KO percentages that had underrated power?

    He was landing a ****load of jabs on his face and that coupled with the discouragement of not being able to land had a lot to do with that stoppage.

    He even said in the post fight... I didn't mean to KO him I was just boxing...and it came.

    The best KO. Just do your thing, if it happens it happens.

    No more conspiracy theory pls lol.

    I didn't think they were being suspicious at all, just making some valid observations.....

    LOL - Kellerman ain't a legend, that's for sure. Perhaps he's a 'Lugosi Wannabe' - in the field of sports commentary :thumbsup ?

    There is something wrong with this fight. Mathysse stands up the whole fight vs provodnikov's hardest punches but he quits vs feather fisted postol's jabs? wtf, i'm not buying it.

    The big difference is that, throughout the Provodnikov bout, Matthysse was in control; dishing out his own brand of punishment on the gutsy Russian, all night long.

    On the other hand, Matthysse never really got to grips with Postol, at all; was consistently frustrated by not being able to do what he wanted and became increasingly discouraged.

    Lock Up Your Daughters is a 1959 horror film starring Bela Lugosi. Due to the lack of information on its production and release, it is uncertain whether it is a lost film or if it ever existed.

    Being in control of the fight has nothing to do with quitting or no. You dont take a massive beating from provod without any belt involved and in the next fight you quit vs a feather fisted armpuncher in your last chance to be a champion. That makes no sense at all.

    Btw, he hurt postol badly at the very beggining of the fight. In round 2 (I guess) postol was dancing the chicken dance after a good right hand from lucas. I repeat there's something in this fight I dont like s***

    Even mentioning Kellerman's name in the same sentence as Bela Lugosi's should be a capital punishment offence (unless someone is doing so in this context :D). Kellerman has about as much charisma as a mannequin and is imminently forgettable. I'd rather watch milk turn sour than listen to anything Kellerman has to say. Lugosi is a horror movie legend and he had charisma by the bucketload.

    The actor Martin Landau played him in the Tim Burton film Ed Wood and he did a fantastic job. He actually won an Oscar for his portrayal of him (check out Lugosi's freaky sized hands lol)

    Kellerman clearly made a comment how fighters go to Wildcard and suddenly become bigger punchers.....
