    Will Max Kellerman finally get past his prejudice and be fair in his commentary about Wladimir Klitschko on Saturday?

    Or will Max be disparaging Wlad as he always has in the past?

    And Kovalev, Hatton, Calzaghe, Pavlik, Adamek, etc.

    But just the good ones. He made positive comments about a journeymen like Minto after he was beaten up by Arreola.

    I wish Max would get past his stupid old prejudices. I know his job on HBO is secure no matter how bad he is.

    He won't even give Wlad a chance, Wlad could dominate from start to finish and Max would just complain about past performances, and question Wlads place in history etc.

    Kellerman was much worse on ESPN. He was not as mainstream and could let his ture feelings out more. In the lead up to the Kostya Tszyu/Zab Judah fight he said Kostya was one of the worst champions in the entire sport.

    Atlas is a complete ******, so I would have to agree... He hates the Klitschkos as well though.

    I thought Kellerman made good, fair comments about Wlad during the Povetkin fight. He said that "Well Floyd isn't exciting, but Floyd doesn't grab and hold like that. Floyd runs, he hides, but he's boxing. Wlad is holding".

    I thought he was spot on.

    He does not identify as a Ukrainian, he identifies as Jewish.

    But his own people don't like him either. This is a Jewish website and look at what they say about him:

    Judaism is a religion, not a nationality. Seeing as how he was born in New York my guess is he identifies as American.
