Should 79 year old Larry Merchant Retire???

It's up to him. I still like hearing him announce. It may be better for him to stop working at this age though.

No disrespect but he looks and sounds like he had a stroke or heart attack recently. He did not look OK tonight at all...

nah you crazy he was awesome and told the truth as always:

"I've seen bigger crowds in Pacquiao's dressing room."

He should never retire. He could be 150 years old and still put Max Kellerman to shame.

I dont like him. He says some pretty idiotic things sometimes. a little off topic but did anyone else hear him call berto a beautiful young man?

Retiring right after the Mayweather-Mosley fight would be a good way to leave HBO.

You don't retire someone who's been covering fights for 50 years.

NEVER.

VIVA LARRY!

He's a metaphorical speaker..and makes the BEST analogies..I LOVE IT!.

Merchant is a beast with the commentating and keeps it WAY real!..

He's slowly being replaced by Kellerman. So his time is coming to an end soon.
