Seriously first he starts in with the Paul Williams paralyzing 3 divisions with fear then while Berto is getting outworked early hes talking about how fast his speed is and how gifted he is while hes LOSING the round?!
Type of thing Kellerman would say:
"Williams is an throwback to yester years. A class act. He can fight like the wind, and has put fear into the world around him. The sheer ability of this man reminds me of Ali. No, better than Ali. Nobody comes near this mountain of a god. He is verocious, with the apetite of a lion. Enemy's cower with fear in his presence. If his skill and talent could be compounded into a book, it would read; The Bible"
Yeah, or he is a guy paid to punch another guy in the face.
Surely not kball15, whom has posted threads of;
HBO Commentators DO NOT CARE about the future of HBO!!!!
"I thought Collazo won tonight"
Anybody Here SELL Boxing DVD's?!?!?!
His best source would be here?
Neither DAVID DIAZ nor OSCAR DLH are even HALF as good as HATTON
Doesn't seem to fit with his usual comments.
Would quite like to some sort of reply to this.
It strongly suggests kball is not Kellermen.

He was right.
yea, kellerman knows his shit. lol. that fight wasnt to hard to predict.

I LOVE max kellerman. He knows an amazing amount about the sport and he gets it out there so well.
Jim Lampley knows way more about boxing, but when his transitions are kinda bad. While max does it without a hiccup.
There is nobody that id rather have taking over the spot of larry merchant when merchant retires.
kball
however, if we are ranking it by in-ring action, which i dont believe we are doing, then i think castillo-corrales 1 would be the single greatest fight of all time, no contest.
the 10th round was the single most exciting and dramatic moment is sports history. SPORTS HISTORY!!!
I was listening to Kellerman today, and he was talking about the UFC and kellerman said he like UFC a lot but he liked boxing better. Then some UFC fan calls in and says how he saw a great UFC fight and says that it was the best fight ever, boxing OR ufc. Then kellerman yells at him and asks if the man had seen corrales-castillo 1. the man replies no, he had not, and then he hangs up. Kellerman goes on to say that that fight was one of the greatest sporting events that has ever happened.
Kball
I just HATE steward as a commentator. I dont really like any of the 3rd guys anymore, and there dont serve a purpose anymore. Keep them for BAD, but get KELLERMAN and MERCHANT and LAMPLEY in for WCB

max kellerman knows a ton about boxing. more then 99% of us, thats for sure. i like that he is taking over the merchant spot when merchant retires or dies (whichever comes first).
and that was funny. What were they arguing about? max kellerman didnt even know.

Have you read kballs threads over the years? Half his shit ends up in Kellerman's mouth
:lol1:
I was just going through his post check this one out.

Kellerman is a prick.
In Gamboa's fight against Ramirez, he laid into Naseem Hamed. He said something along the lines of "Gamboa is similar to Hamed in that he was deeply flawed. Although Gamboa is not as flawed as Hamed". WTF. Gamboa has not even won a title yet, and he is making comparisons with Hamed.
He seems to not like British fighters, and always gives them damning praise.
I think some of Kellermens errors when commentating are simply un acceptable at that level. I've never known a professional commentator in a sport, to make so many errors and dubious biased comments, really I haven't.
I know he has a passion for boxing and a lot of knowledge, but all to often it's of a certain kind, and too clearly of certain fighters, often local.
The way he interviews people sometimes is also dis respectful and just a little annoying, he tries to imply things as if he's some kind of boxing god father when really often he's talking shit, not picking the best words of tones to say things.
People should be less forgiving of mistakes and biases just because of some other good stuff, and more demanding of journalism and commentating at this kind of level especially when paying for it.
i get tired of lewis talking his self up.
last night he said if it werent for his 1st lost he wouldnt be as great as he is now.i do beleive he is great but be a little modest lennox.
Lennox Lewis is childishly self-obsessed. Too bad we can't bring back George Foreman.

You'll be as annoyed with Kellerman as many of us are, if Karoly Balzsay is ever on HBO and Kellerman is the commentator.
.
Well if Balzsay is on HBO it will be against Andre Dirrell and he will lose anyway. So if Kellerman wants to say that Dirrell is the better fighter it's fine with me because it is true. Not because Kellerman hates Europeans.

Is it me or was Kellerman more annoying than usual tonight? | BoxingScene Community
