I do like Max in general, I even listen to his radio show here in LA almost every day....he at least enjoys the sport and is happy to be there..he's a fan that is good as a professional too.. BUT within the past year or so, he really has been trying hard to push the company line at times.
It's coming across way too thick lately and it's getting a little uncomfortable because that's not really how he's been over the years. I can get over the NYC/east coast bias because they have their own boxing culture there, thats fine...people watching from overseas probably hear the overall US bias really clearly but we all can understand it's an American network so they deal with it...but there is an extra layer of towing the line he has been doing lately.
I think he is a little lost in his role right now having being told he would be basically replacing Merchant..pretty big shoes to fill.
