Max Kellerman Quotes
Collapse
-
he cannot hold larry merchant's jock strap.
larry was so much better at interviewing fighters. Max is absolutely horrible. 2 or 3 brief dead end questions and its back to jim.
Larry was so much better. Larry asked thought provoking questions and would milk any moment unlike kellerman who would shut down a potentially great moment like floyd vs shane/bernard.
Kellerman sucks just like his rachel maddow manny paquiao analogy.

Max Kellerman especially hates British boxers.
"Calzaghe was knocked down in the first round against Eubank" (lie)
"Calzaghe is doing worse than a shot Felix Trinidad did against Roy Jones" (lie)
"Berto beat Urango by a wider margin on the cards than Ricky Hatton did" (lie)
"Most people thought Colazzo beat Hatton" (lie, check the old press scores and the old polls on various websites)
He hates the Klitschkos too:
"Wladimir Klitschko only gets TKOs, never clean KOs" (lie)
"Boxing would be better off without one of the Klitschkos" (in a discussion in 2006 about whether Vitali is retired)

I can't take kellerman seriously. He says some dumb **** sometimes and to think he really does not have personal experience in boxing. Roy jones jr., Malignaggi, heck even Lennox ****in Lewis is better than him mainly because they know they're ****.

HBO has such a rich and wonderful history with boxing and yet I feel like Max has single-handedly ruined the entire broadcast for me.
His commentating has become increasingly more annoying. He tries so very hard to convince people he's wise and that he sees things that others don't and it's so very important he point this out to us simpletons because we will undoubtedly make something completely else out of it. Just this past weekend his inflated boxing eye was on full display; he tried to explain why Zou Shiming smiles in the ring and looks like he's having fun, although he's done this plenty of times, apparently it's because Zou can't believe he can fight this well and Zou is currently in shock of his own boxing ability - what an idiot. During Pac-Algieri, I recall he said that "very few fleet-footed boxers" with light punching power have beaten Pacquiao, "fewer than most boxing fans realize," because apparently Pacquiao's 5 losses will quite so confuse us. Besides counting Bradley, how many other fighters is he referring to? He's awful, there's no other way to explain it.
Dude belongs on a youtube channel. He should switch spots with Dwyer.Last edited by SCEN3RY; 11-26-2014, 02:54 PM.
