    Please Larry Merchant Retire Already !!!

    I think I speak for everyone here but it is time for Larry Merchant to go.

    I know people are going to say "He is great, He is a pioneer in the game, He is the face of HBO. blah blah blah....

    What really gets on my nerves is the fawking dumb a$$ questions he ask. I mean seriously, it takes him like 5 years for him to finish a sentence and Boxer is like wtf are you asking? And when he finally gets to ask a question is fawking ******ed. He also cuts off the boxer when they are talking.


    They need to put Jim in there for the post interview. He straight forward and gets to the point. I think he is a great instigater. Can you imagine the kind of questions he would ask.


    What are your thoughts....

        I dont care whatsoever. I watch the fights and will hear Merchant make me laugh once in a while.

        I was just pissed when he got Foreman fired from the announcers table. Foreman knew so much about what was going on since hes been in gloves, it was exciting hearing him speak at heated moments in the fight.

        I just say bring Foreman Back!

            Sure, he's a dinosaur, but I'll take him over Kellerman any day.

              Even though he's very old and becoming a bit senile, [B]he's still MUCH better than Max Kellerman.[/I]

                  Negative. Both he and Kellerman suck. Dumb questions and complain and cry way too much during and after the fight.

                  I love their segments afterwards that show us how deep and profound their words are.
