    NEVER, NEVER, NEVER! Larry's rambling rants are not only hilarious but he's the undisputed king of real talk...who else would have cracked on mayweather for wearing a gladiator outfit at the Baldomir fight? I don't care if he starts nodding off, drooling, or repeating himself, keep that man on the air

      Knowing that Kellerman is Larry's replacement he shouldn't retire, Kellerman is another cheerleader, I think we have enough with Lampley...

              Merchant is HBO Boxing!!!!!!!!!! He should never retire especially if he's getting replaced by a loud mouth like kellerman who talks bigger than he walks. I still remember the time that some fan came in the ring and tried to interrupt his interview. I can't remember who he was interviewing but merchant like a pimp threw the fan out of the way haha all time great moment!!!!

                I like Larry's commentating too, but if he doesn't have the passion anymore for commentating then he needs to be replaced. The question is who should replace Larry?

                  No, he's too funny. He's one of the most biased people on TV that i don't mind listening to.

                    Yeah it's hard to imagine HBO boxing without Merchant, but he will need to be replaced soon, especially if Merchant gives the impression that he doesn't want to be commentating.

                      max is on *******.
