    Larry Merchant should retire. Its Max Kellermans time now.

    I and many others feel that Larry did a horrible job last night. I'm not only talking about the post fight interviews, I'm also talking about the fight commentating self. Like when he said in round 2 that Floyd was ok while in fact he truly was hurt. Thankfully Lampley and Steward corrected him.

    Larry must go and Max should do the job from now on. Agree or disagree?

        Merchant: So Floyd, are you saying everyone is on PEDs?



        Not gonna say it was bad but that part pissed me off.

          Max Kellerman sucks. They should hire John Skully to replace him.

          Larry Merchant is fading with age, but I still enjoy hearing what he has to say.

            I know, Larry was horrible last night.. Asking Floyd if he's saying Everyone is on PEDs.. Floyd NEVER said that so why would that old fool put words in his mouth. But without a blood test how does Larry know if they're on PEDs or not?

              I think they guy on Hbo after Dark is decent too, not sure his name but he doesn't seem bias or annoying. Kellerman pisses me off too but he has been better recently i feel.

              Larry Merchant is too old and just seems really bitter to me, he constantly took shots at Floyd and seemed gutted that he couldn't really say anything to Floyd after such a performance. He sure leapt on the Blood test issue as soon as it came up though.. trying to make Floyd look bad..

              That was one of Floyd's better interviews

                Larry is still better than Kellerman on his best night. Kellerman will have his time but he needs to step it up because he sucks right now. Larry and Jim are real commentators that worked for established companies. While Kellerman is an ESPN tv show reject. I think HBO should look for someone else to give the reigns to.

                  The "other guy" on BAD is Bob Papa. I love him.

                  I'd be fine with the Papa and Kellerman replacing Lampley and Merchant. Though I'm not a fan of Steward he's much better than Lennox...
