Max Kellerman = useless (or worse)

I usually prefer Sky or Sho and I really like Tarver as a commentator. HBO is getting nauseating. RJ is cool but he often likes to get into arguments with the other commentators during a fight and steal the action - that's not his job as a commentator. Wasn't that one of the reasons why HBO silently left Foreman out of future fights?

Hopkins could actually be cool too with his insight but I sense the same thing will happen like RJ and Foreman.

I can't stand Kellerman, he talks like he has some script in front of him, so boring and robotic

Lol Kellerman is a clown. I like when he gets into it with Roy and they disagree with each other and Roy schools his ass. Then he finds a way to agree with Roy like "Yea well... blah blah"

so true!!!

Max called Chad "Larry Dawson" last night...I said who? LOL

Ward is clearly someone they are trying to groom as a HBO star, though I still doubt Ward becomes a big star ever. He'll be Roy Jones or Bernard Hopkins big, not Oscar or Floyd big.

But still, the announcers had nothing to do with Ward beating Dawson's ass. It was a great win and performance by Ward, I was shocked that Ward stopped him. Obviously it would have been greater had Ward gone up in weight or if they'd fought a non-title CW fight or something. Still, a great win for Ward. I wouldn't rule out a rematch at 175 in the next few years, if Dawson stays on top there.

Dawson should fight either Cloud or Pascal next.

he won't it's open season on him now. His confidence is gone and Pascal already beat him anyway everyone else he fought was a geriatric.

Hbo just love grooming fighters to be stars and hyping them. The commentary makes it so obvious it's not even funny. As far as the fight goes, let's be honest dawson looked like a deadman from the start. He should have been out of there much earlier.

He looked fine. Lets be honest you're but hurt and looking for an excuse.

Kellerman is a better interviewer than he is a commentator. For me, he isn't very good at the 'blow by blow' and technical side of boxing commentary, and he's just throws in some irrelevant fight from the past and passes it off as knowledge.

However I do think he is a good interviewer, he asks the right questions and gets the answers fans want to his credit

Larry Merchant is the real clown..... Talks to slow and rarely has anything interesting to say about the fight...

Yet when he's watching his favorite fighters he's biased as hell.. Leave it to Roy to call him out on it.

Boxing broadcasting is in bad shape. Kellerman is just a bit goofy and does not have great broadcasting skills nor the voice for it or knowledge IMO.

And what's even worse is now Showtime boxing has brought on Mauro Ranallo from Elite XC and Strikeforce doing main commentary I noticed last night while Al Bernstein takes a back seat. I can't stand listening to Ranallo do MMA and now I have to suffer through his old school AM radio DJ voice doing boxing. He started out doing local Vancouver wrestling commentating and that's where he belongs...knows nothing about boxing.

Kellerman sucks, i like hearing Roy.
