    HBO is a paid channel. Meaning it should have high standards. Max Kellerman is not high standards. And although sometimes you look at Larry and wonder, Say something, Say something!!!! He is still a boxing novelty. And like someone said before he is one of the voices of boxing. I personally think Kellerman Sucks. If anyone were to take Larry's job I would want Teddy Atlas in there, Larry is still #1 in my book thou.

      Teddy couldnt fill those shoes. Only people that come close are former champions. Id like to see Marvin Hagler be a commentator. That would be cool.

        Kellerman is just a muppet period ,

          This is about to sound very crazy because its about a commentator. How in the **** can yall overrate Larry Merchant? He ain't that ****ing good. Just because he has been there a long time that don't make him great. Yall are just used to him and don't want see somebody who has been there so long go. It would be like when Steve Tasker retired from the Bills. He was just a special teams(very good I will say) but he wasn't what got them to those Super Bowls. He was just a life long Buffalo Bill so the fans are loyal to him. Larry Merchant has some good qualities but I for one won't be sad to see him go.

Also, who......doesn't love....Larry's constant.......pauses? You think he's thinking up this dramatic, insightful question but then he comes out with "did he hurt you at any time in the fight?".
