    The last match I seen Larry broadcasting was the Mayweather/Hatton fight if I recall. Larry is a legend, Kellerman is a ***, who I would love to see get beat up by a fighter on TV, I think Lewis was close to doing a couple weeks back.

    The only thing Kellerman is good for is to serve Larry's drinks. HBO sucks, and the production last week absolutely showed it.

    hbo puts on most of the biggest fights in boxing, but ruin the feel with kellerman doing play by play. bring larry legend back.

    I like Merchant, ten to one, over Kellerman.

    Not even close.

    Merchant should be brought back, as people know and identify the HBO boxing shows with him and his unique commentary.

    Merchant has been known to take a drink once in a while, but I love the way he told Harold Ledermann off!

    I do not recall any racial remarks from him. What are you talking about?

    That came to my mind also....He was supposed to alternate with Max...I hope that incident didn't do him in.

    I don't think it's exactly planned, but I think Lampley tries to do it if a fight has become dull and it sparks for a second. Just to try to keep the audience into it. Still though.. I'll never forget...


    "And that right hand hurt Taylor"

    "Taylor is stunned"

    "Left hook knocks Taylor's head up"

    "Uppercut has Taylor in big trouble"

    "AND DOWN GOES JERMAIN"

    "Steve Smoger is going to stop the fight"

    "WE HAVE A BRAND NEW MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION. HES FROM YOUNGSTOWN OHIO"
