    My only problem with Max is when he is doing post fight interviews with non-English speaking fighters and asks his long, involved, sometimes confusing questions that make the fighter look lost when he answers. Questions directly after a fight should be short and to the point, no matter who the fighter is. They have just spent who knows how many rounds beating on another human being and now they are expected to get calmed down and clear headed to answer a long involved question.

    Other than that, I think he does a great job. HBO is the standard when it comes to fight analysts and commentators. Showtime is a distant second but could be much better without Paulie and the less said about PBC the better.

      GGG is considered at the moment as the greatest fighter of all time so he can't say otherwise. At this point, no one can deny Gennady's place in boxing and history. He has no option.

          He rides his dic or simply likes what he sees in the ring? Because honestly, most people who watch Golovkin in person have nothing but good things to say.

          Max is alright, he's much better than lampley.

            IMO Max is really pompous, and loves his superlatives.

              He's an ATG, borderline GOAT.

              He's improving his interview game. He's not really allowed to be himself on HBO, but still does his job with class and dignity.

              Most people that don't like him because: they think he grew up rich, he attended an ivy league university, or his vocabulary is too vast. Basically, simpletons.

                    Max Kellerman quotes:

                    "Paul Williams is so avoided by fighters that he has frozen three divisions in fear"

                    "Paul Williams is like Julio Cesar Chavez, Pernell Whittaker and Thomas Hearns all mixed into one fighter"

                    "Zab Judah is Pernell Whitaker with a punch."

                    "Wladimir Klitschko only gets TKOs, never clean KOs" (tell that to Chambers, Pulev, etc)

                    "Devon Alexander is the heir to Floyd Mayweather's pound-for-pound throne"

                    "Calzaghe was knocked down in the first round against Eubank" (it was actually Calzaghe knocking Eubank down)

                    "Roy Jones is making Joe Calzaghe look worse than a washed up Felix Trinidad"

                      Why even list all of those?

                      We all know which one really pissed you off. It's true though, Wlad puts Americans to sleep whenever they feel sympathy for him and show his fights here.
