Why is age required? Surely only time is required?
I'm sure no one with even one brain cell would dispute that Bob Mee is a boxing historian. He wrote his first book, when? 2000 I think it was? How old was he then? In his 40's? I don't know but he wasn't that old.Comment

because there’s a link between time and age
Extreme recency bias in max list would indicate he hasn’t taken the time to look deeply into the subject matterComment

Maybe he has, maybe he hasn't, I don't know. His list is his list, it's subjective and everyone's criteria is different.
I'm just confused as to why age is required. If age is required then that means you can't be a historian unless you're a certain age. And what is that age?👍 1Comment

+4 Yes, Max Kellerman is
widely regarded as a knowledgeable boxing historian and analyst, a reputation built on his deep historical knowledge, articulate commentary, and early start in the business with his own public access show, "Max on Boxing", while still in school, making him a respected, if sometimes controversial, voice in the sport. He's known for his depth, but opinions vary on his effectiveness as a live commentator versus an analyst, notes from Reddit discussions.
Evidence of his historical knowledge:- Early Start: He began hosting "Max on Boxing" at 16, studying the sport deeply and building a strong foundation in its history, according to Columbia University's magazine.
- Education: He holds a degree in history from Columbia University, which informs his analytical approach, notes Wikipedia.
- Deep Insights: Fellow broadcasters and fans often praise his ability to weave historical context and deep knowledge into his analysis, with Stephen A. Smith calling him "probably the most knowledgeable person in broadcasting when it comes to boxing," notes from a YouTube video.
- HBO & ESPN: He served as a key analyst for HBO's championship boxing and later for ESPN's Friday Night Fights, becoming a prominent voice in boxing broadcasting, say LetsEngage.com and Wikipedia.

I was referring to his age to rebut the claim that he was a 'young commentator'. I don't consider 52 young.
You can obviously be a historian at any age and I should imagine some historians' best work is done when they are young.Comment
