    Anyone, honestly he is a pain in the ass, he knows nothing about boxing, and he's an arrogant prick. He's my persona on here, but in real life.

    And he laughs at every fucking thing he says like as if he is some great intellect, but he comes off as a retarded old fool.

    I WILL HAVE NO ILL SPOKEN OF LARRY!



    Larry is the fu**ing bomb. Been watching him for 20 years now and he is all the comic relief I need. I love his crazy old ass.

    I wish HBO would just film a weekly hour of Larry talking.

    You know who else I love to hear crazy sh*t from? Old Iron Mike.


    How bout they make a weekly show where Larry and Mike just say wacky sh*t to each other for an hour? It'd be epic.

    Can't stand the prick. His little 'hehe' laugh makes me wish someone would take advantage of the gun laws in the US. Can't stand the way he always seemed to be trying to get on ODLH's dick (even though I like Oscar) and his 'I'm more important than the fighters' post fight interviews.

    Arrogant, obnoxious, bias...call him what ever you want but fact is the guy is a legend as far as commentators go....without him many of HBO broadcast would have never been the same....You may not agree with him all the time and I certainly don't...

    BUT....

    The man calls it how he see's it...maybe not how others do but as he does.....Honest to a fault but again the man is honest...there are a ton of ass kissers in this game who say stuff just because they are trying to please someone..

    Larry is not one of those men

    If for nothing else you have to respect him for that

    He certainly is in love with some of the guys. He misleads a lot of fans, and his half truths turn things plainly into lies. IF you want honest truth I think Max Kellerman is the best for that, he calls it like it is, and he does so without bias. He actually has attained knowledge of the sport, probably has boxed a bit. Merchant fails as a wordsmith, he fails as a knowledgable person in the sport, and he fails as a commentator.

    ROFLMAO Kellerman isnt fit to fetch and carry Larry's drinks for him . Kellerman has an enormous ego and very little else. The only thing he boxed were Christmas presents

    Capped! It will dull HBO to the max with him gone. Actually a lot of the naysayers secretly hope he continues on...Right?

    Reps on the way DaxxKahn! ... once the "spread around" notice is lifted.

    That's Larry in a nutshell. I used to hate Larry but for some reason I started to turn. I think it was his ability to not "pull any punches" during his interviews.
