The Harlem Hammer murder anyone hear about this?

He used to do the Around the horn I think That's right. He always had those red eyes. BTW, Around the horn started with him as the "anchor" The people who are reporting boxing are a big part of boxing. Your statement is foolish and ignorant. Dude, STFU. If you can remember the names of the commentators and writers, you got too much time to spare. Get a girlfriend.

It's a horrible thing to happen. Sam Kellerman was helping Butler out, giving him a place to stay and this is how he was repaid.

I am a fan of boxing not a fan of boxing reporters, I really didnt know until I looked up Kellermans bio out of curiosity. The people who are reporting boxing are a big part of boxing. Your statement is foolish and ignorant.

Are you people joking about not knowing Kellerman or the story of his brother getting killed? How can you be a real boxing fan and not know that story? I am a fan of boxing not a fan of boxing reporters, I really didnt know until I looked up Kellermans bio out of curiosity.

The thing is how bizzare it all is.. a hammer on the floor near his brother and "the harlem hammer" is the murderer. also his name was Butler..as in the Butler did it. Kellerman is a boxing reporter/commentator and a boxer kills his brother. I thought it was a fake story!

I was unaware of this story. Its pretty strange. Max Kellermans brother was killed. On October 17, 2004, the body of Max's brother Sam was found near a hammer in his Hollywood apartment. As a result of the ensuing investigation, former boxer James Butler was arrested and charged with Sam's murder. He later confessed to the murder and was given a 29 year sentence. As an unfortunate stroke of bad luck, when Adam Carolla's manager was inviting Kellerman to the premiere of his new boxing film, "The Hammer", he did not know that Sam Kellerman's murder was committed by Butler, who was known as "The Harlem Hammer". Adam stated on his radio show, The Adam Carolla Show, that he felt bad about the incident and pointed out what a crazy coincidence it really was. yeah.. fucked up shit.... Butler is also Infamous for his "After the fight was Over" KO of Richard Grant... this was a Charity match too...:nonono:

I can remember this; it was relatively big news a couple years ago. I feel bad for Max and his family. His brother was trying to help out a guy who was down on his luck and ended up getting murdered...

Yes of course I heard of it. I think many people have as well. I dont even remember seeing Kellerman much on TV and Ive been watching boxing for about 10 years.
