Why don't people like Max Kellerman?

[El Kabong]

I think most people's problems of announcers like Max stem from the fact that those guys like "The Sweet Science" and the average boxing fan likes punchers and brawlers.....very few find a happy middle ground, Roy Jones Jr being one of them

...well I was talking about him as a fighter but yeah either way is good



Though Wlad did punk him though

I really like the SHOTIME people better. You know not calling ghost punches or cheerleading for their favorite. All this HBO commentators does

....HBO gets better ratings but I am sure that's more due to the fighters they have

I remember the Tyson days when Shotime ruled Boxing

Fact is there is no voice of boxing as there was in the 70's with Howard Cosell.

Money grabbing sneakthiefs hav bastardized that area of the sport aswell.

Lamp's and the ghost punches.On sundays I rewatch twice in the morn,Once for the action, and again for the Lampley Rah rah effects and Lol.
On Showtime though I think Nick Charles has to be the worst blow by blow commentators in the biz. He makes me sleepy.

Al Bernstien is the best in the game right now. He really tries to call it like he sees it or should i say how it's happing.

I have always liked Beristein he is really knowledgeable and un-biased , been a fan of his since his ESPN days. Old school no one tops Cosell.

I hate to disagree with a ton of people on here but Max Kellerman and Lennox Lewis did a GREAT job the other night.

Even my friends who only watch the big fights said they worked well together. They were very glad there was no Larry Merchant.

The only thing I would disagree with is the bias of Al Bernstein's commentating of James Toney.It actually made me sick,watch the Toney vs Peter fights and Toney vs. Holyfield fight.I wouldn't put it past Bernstein that he would actually lick Toney's sack. Every little movement he made in the ring was genius to Bernstein. Sorry got a little nasty there.
