    I agree, his "interview" with Pascal was out of line and seemed to be him trying to degrade Canada and Pascal.

      Still don't think it's as bad as Lampley bringing up Katsidis' dead brother by asking him if he thinks his brother would of been proud of his performance. Double rub it in. That really crossed a line for me.

      One day one of these fighters will be temperamental enough to lay out one of the commentators.

        Either way Jim Gray still > Max Kellerman.

        Kellerman is the worst, hands down.

          yeah i know i couldn't believe when he said what would have happened if the fight wasn't in canada

          ummm for one no one would have went to see it because as far as i remember bernard fought roy infront of about 50 people last go round and looked like ****

          like we ain 't seen countless eastern europeans or other foreign fighters robbed when boxing some overhyped yank in the US who has some network hanging from his nutsack

          the ****in nerve of the guy is incredible

          glad to see im not the only one who thinks he should have the taste slapped outta his mouth

              an even worse crime would be misplacing the blame and further damaging the reputation of the wrong person. Merchant interviewed Katsidis after the fight

                  jim grey can eat a big fat d1ck

                  one of the worst excuses for a journalist ever in the sport...merchant has his anekdotes, kellerman has his metaphors...grey has a condesending attitude

                  big props to a fighter fighting 12 hard rounds and swallowing grey's comments without punching him in the face

                      Ordinarily I am a big fan of Larry Merchant.

                      But I also felt his interview with Katsidis was bizarre. Merchant asked Katsidis if his dead brother would be proud of his loss. I found that question disrespectful and rude.

                      I dont think Merchant did it out of spite, in all honesty, Merchant is getting older and it probably slipped his mind.

                      I like Merchant but his interview with Katsidis was way out of line as well.
