    Kellerman's commentary last night was one of the most biased ever

    He has been anti Juan Diaz since he first seen him fight from what i get from interviews and what he says on camera. Last night on hbo he was dogging juan all night long. He mentioned everything Paulie landed and he was ranting on everything Paulie was doing and kept saying negative comments about Diaz. He kept going on and on about how the crowd was making Diaz look better than he was doing. Howard Lederman wasnt any better. He is pro Malignaggi since he is an NYC fighter. I saw that when he was subtly rooting for him against Hatton.

    I agree.

    Kellerman can't seem to rise above his biases. He thinks with his emotions.

      that was true, i watched the fight. diaz threw a lot of left hooks and paulie blocked half of them, but even when paulie blocked them the crowed started cheering.

        Its strange but Kellerman and I like almost the exact same fighters and dislike the same fighters. I agree both Kellerman and Lederman were being a tad biased but I've seen much worse.

          I think the whole crew was biased towards Paulie, but Kellerman was especially. Nothing new.

                  i think kellerman prefers cowards over dignified champs. it is sad that such a hater of real boxing could be one of the commentators. they should let lennox do more talking because hes been in the ring and knows what hes talking about and he appreciates the true warriors that keep this sport going.

                    As a boxing analyst Kellerman is no way near compared to my old boy Larry Merchant.
