    Max and Bob tried to keep it real: Lederman should be ashamed of himself.

    You don't win fights by punching at the air: you win them by hitting people with clean, hard punches. Which Kotelnik did to Alexander all night.

      he is talking about this fight
      not the last fight that happened a year ago but this fight that happened today
      u should stop watching boxing

      khan clearly won because he was faster and had longer reach and better game plan.

      but tonight kotelnik was not given a fair shake. and thats tonight just in case you get confused again or cant read

        Bob and Max knew who won the fight. Papas especially was really uncomfortable with the whole thing.
        I agree, this is why more and more people watch MMA instead of boxing...I was kinda mad myself for not going to the sports bar with my UFC fan friends, just to stay home and watch two fights with terrible decisions

          Yeah -- being a boxing fan sometimes is like being Charlie Brown and having Lucy pull the football away at the last second over and over again, yet still believing that NEXT TIME she won't do it. And of course she does.

          We keep hoping that NEXT TIME they will get it right -- and they don't.

            I scored it 8 - 4 for Kotelnik.

            Lederman did a terrible job. This entire HBO commentating crew cannot exist with this personnel, they need someone who would not be afraid to tell how it is, and not to mumble diffidently something about it was a closer fight than the judges scored it, like Papa did tonight.

                  This is what's wrong with boxing. Kotelnik got robbed by hbo and their plan for their new "superstar". Devon: want Bradley? You're gonna get ktfo!

                    I doubt he'll get knocked out, but he certainly won't be the favorite

                      That`s the way Kotelnik was treated always... HE should`ve had 3 more wins on his resume...

                      HBO is a mess...
