Lampley and Kellerman are worthless

[RP33]

I just think it's so childish and immature on how they argue with each other, and how each guy always has to be right. Manny Steward is my favorite simply because his ego doesn't get in the way when someone disagrees with him.. I've muted the TV several times because of this.

That happens more now since you have two guys who think they are experts.. Manny is the real expert and Max thinks he is . Jim is just a guy who moderates. I think Jim Lampley works well with Larry Merchant since he is a similar age and generation. When he and Max worked together a few days ago they seemed out of sorts. I guess Jim and Max are a similar seperation in age than Jim and Larry, but Jim and Larry are more of the old style of broadcasting. Actually the onetime I remember two guys sort of arguing is when Hagler was commentating for Hearns/Roldan in 1987 and he and Gil argued a point during the bout what side Hearns should move from Roldan. Well obviously Hagler knew better since at that point he had fought both of them and knew both guys in the ring.

good point.. makes a lot of sense.

I can forgive Lampley for his errors because i do find him a really charismatic likeable guy who i want to listen to,

I missed Larry

I don't find Kellerman very interesting to listen to, i don't think he adds anything to the mix.

Kellerman has always irked my ass.

[:::PSL:::]

If Kellerman gets rid of his faggoty goatie, dye his hair silver, and talk real real slow with crazy analogies and maybe people won't miss Merchant.

As for limpd1ck, he needs to smoke more pot and beat up more of his supermodel fwock buddies.

I'm probably the only Kellerman fan on this site.

I've always like Kellerman, his enthusiasm, knowledge, & love of the sport...but I aint sure what the fwock he & the rest of the HBO team were on during Sat'dee's show.

I was & will stay pissed the fwock off regarding those Castillo comments & idiotic questions.

I agree with Hatton "He deserved a pat on the back for that win."

[the wiz]

Kellerman could MAYBE be tollerable if he didn't have the worse voice I've ever heard in broadcasting.

[gyrokai]

haha at above me

there's something wrong with Kellerman, I can't define it.

I was hoping Hatton would fire back with "You got this job because Merchant is too old, how's it feel to replace someone who's washed up?"


When is the last time you watched any other sports interview and the question is... "Did your team win because the other team sucks?" It really was classless, and pointless. Kellerman should be warned about that, I hate trashy journalism. It's really frustrating that they put them on the spot and ask those questions. It's fair game for the athletes to ask stuff like, "Lampley, have you ever hit your old lady with a bodyshot like that?" Or "Max, how long are you gonna live off the sympathy for your brother's murder?"

Imagine the response. I'd like to see Lampley's face with that question.....

I agree with ya Wack, it's not often you hear an American boxing commentator that is young AND excited about boxing. I give him Saturday as his off-night.

I would pay HBO €100 jus to see Kellerman get in the ring.
I dunno he's just the type of guy that i wanna see horribly maimed....

Max Kellerman annoys me to no end; almost as much as Merchant did. At least Merchant was funny, usually because he forgot what he was saying, but funny nonetheless. Kellerman looks like a wannabe serial killer the way he turns his head towards the camera; and those freaky eyes that are open so wide they he looks like a chameleon. Then the Kermit the Frog voice which is an exact replica of Kermit. Not only does he sound like him, he moves like him also. Go watch some Kermit videos and tell me that isn't Max KillerMan,lol. Then there is the admitted changing of his opinion on Hatton after the fight, which was very unfair. So to hell with that guy. Manny I like, though he seems preoccupied sometimes, probably trying to get away from Limpwrist Lampley's bad breath.

CC Legion! Oh man he annoys me so bad!!!

I could tolerate Kellerman until the other night when he said how great Hatton would look if he beat Castillo convincingly; then changes his mind afterwards. All the other stuff I could tolerate, the creepy looks at the camera, the way he looked like he wanted to Lampley; but not going back on what he said. Now he's the total package to me, or tool. Yeah, I'd ppv to watch him get his frame

[donnydarkoIRL]

But will HBO keep him? There's a lot of guys on this forum that have been voicing their distaste as regards comments made toward Hatton on fight night and also in relation to some others fights/fighters and HBO's attitude toward them.
If HBO wants to continue as virtually boxing's frontrunner as regards ppv they are going to have to offer a better service.
They can warn Kellerman, (he continuinly voiced personal opinions which were distasteful toward a world champion and a respected contender.) but he won't change. I don't have any great problem with Lampley but he completely missed round 3 and iv noticed this happening in a number of fights when he goes off on his tangents!
HBO needs to sharpen up.

I finally lost all respect for Kellerman when he said on the radio that 70% of Heavyweights are on Steroids. "Seven out of the 10 top heavyweights are on the juice," he said. "Most of the top guys are (juicing)." Max stated it as if it were fact. He just pulls numbers out of his ass ! Kellerman 's reckless opinions have no merit. he is constantly saying stupid shit that hurts boxing. ! Max wouldn’t know a boxing glove if he were wearing it !
