who the fuck is Mayweather..he is not even the champion..what gives him the right to demand shit!!!That is why Mike Wilbon of ESPN Sporstcenter who is black by the way, calls Mayweather >>a COWARD>>>a fucking coward!!!! he is calling his own people a coward...Nobody with authority calls Pacquiao a coward..how is that???
How did Kellerman instigate anything? By asking if there's a possible fight between 2 fighters? That's his godamn job, Hopkins started the conflict by opening his mouth (as he always does), not Kellerman...
This is completely ridiculous, Kellerman isn't responsible for what either of the fighters say during the interview, he's there for one reason, to interview the fighters, and that's what he did, he asked a legitimate question about a stipulation that usually isn't on contracts...
Furthermore, Floyd picks and chooses his fights carefully, and if you look into his past, he's always tried to have an advantage over his opponents one way or another, otherwise, he ducks any opponent that would pose a challenge to him... He couldn't do this with Cotto, he dodged him until he had no choice but to fight him, but he "retired" instead... Then he comes back to take on an older, heavier Marquez with this stipulation in the contract which didn't make sense...
So fast forward to now, he's trying to get Pacquiao to take random blood tests before the fight... Why? Because Pacquiao doesn't like needles. The last time he had to take a blood test a day before a fight, he was feeling sick, he wasn't his best and THAT's what Floyd is counting on, again, trying to gain an unfair advantage over his opponent.
Who is Floyd to demand those tests be done? He's not the boxing commission, he has absolutely no authority at all. He's just scared of Pac.
I totally agree dude. Good vid and video recollection at the beginning. I was like why is everyone on Shane when he said like one sentence and he was already in the ring because of the promotion LOL. Kellerman and Bernard the little "lethal weapon tag team" instigated that blow up.
I see where you are coming from; that is a fair observation, regarding the instigation. Max Kellerman has a tendency to do things like that; this is not the first time where I have seen a fighter get agitated with him in a post fight interview. Basically, it would have been better for Shane to have gone in there by himself without Hopkins, as everything went sour once Bernard put his two cents in. I am not a big fan of Floyd's fighting decisions either however I agree with your point here.
Serious question here. Floyd has said he weighed the same as Pacquiao at 16 yrs old. Does anybody have any video footage of Mayweather Jr. throughout his career, so we can see his muscle development and compare to Manny. There suspiciously is a short supply of videos of Floyd from his early career. I am beginning to think there may be reason to suspect Floyd of roids as well. Where are the videos of Floyd so we can decide for ourselves?
I don't know why ever body keeps crying about the weight Jack Dempsey weighted 180 when he fought Jess Willard at 240 and smashed him in 4 rounds an thats like a 60 pound advantage people think because a guy is bigger or stronger that means that there gonna win a fight........... not in boxing and two pounds........ who gives a fuck about 2 pounds????? skills win fights not a few pound advantage if you can even call that an advantage lol
jhabeeb, all kellerman was trying to do was conduct a professional interview with mayweather about him fighting mosely, a welterweght champ, but it got out of hand i do not see a case for kellerman been blamed for that. i do not like kellerman either but with repect to this interview i do not see he was in the wrong in this case.
Kellerman was trying to dominate the interview? Please. Mayweather called mosely over. Mosely was in the ring because he was a promoter. Hopkins pumped up mosely. Kellerman was trying to do his job. This blaming Kellerman thing is bullshit.
@iam#1 That's exactly what I said. This guy wants to blame Kellerman and Mayweather called him over, maybe he was being nice but then he complained that he's interrupting the interview after he called Mosely over. The fact is that Mosely is the one who stepped up the agression. I have a feeling that the true instigator here is Hopkins. This guy says Kellerman was controlling the interview. Kellerman was NOT in control of anything, that's why he had to throw to Jim. It was out of control.
@delsega You made an ass out of yourself asking that question. You proved that you don't know much of anything about boxing. Lesson 1: Mosely and Hopkins are PARTNERS in GOLDEN BOY PROMOTIONS. They promoted the fight between May and Marquez. That's why they're in the ring after the fight. When have I ever heard of Mosley promoting a fight? EVERY SINGLE TIME THERE'S a FIGHT WITH GOLDEN BOY involved. You are truly a dumbass, LMAO>
still Floyd didn't say he wants to fight Pacman when asked, after beating Marquez. isn't money is what Money Mayweather cares about the most? Pacman will give him the most money. it seems like Floyd is just ducking he ain't want to fight Pacman or Mosley.
floyd is ducking? so wat is it called when the welterweight champ mosley calls out pacman but pacman chooses to fight the slower cotto? u mayweather haters don't kno shit about boxing, u just talk shit with nothing to back it up
because Cotto is younger and he beat Mosley before, you idiot. that's why Pacman chose Cotto plus Cotto has a huge fanbase that Shane doesn't. like i said if Floyd doesn't fight Pacman or Shane next he's a fucking pussy. period.
exactly, so don't cry like a bitch when floyd picks marquez who we all kno won the second the fight, pacman never fights fast fighters he dodges more then anybody and u dick riders r blind to it, floyd was the smaller challenger in all of his title fights so quit hatin
you're not making sense. many people agreed that Castillo beat Mayweather in their first fight. and does that matter? in the end it was just a close fight and Mayweather got the W. Pacman got the W over Marquez and Floyd should have chosen to fight Manny because of that. Not to mention the obvious bigger money awaiting if to fight Manny. it just seemed that Floyd saw Manny as a threat and he chose to fight Marquez, slower and older fighter than Manny, for less money instead. tell me why is that?
if u weren't just a spectator u'd kno bob arum is the one that ruined the fight between floyd and pac, floyd wanted 60% cuz we all kno he sells the most tickets but bob was greedy and wanted 50%, ur also blind cuz castillo's punches were blocked in the first fight, if he landed wat they say he landed, why was there not one mark on floyd's face? u can't recieve over 200 punches to the face without even a bruise, if castillo landed more pucnhes why was his face so fucked up after the fight?
my point was Floyd got the W and Manny got the W so they should fight each other. even if they did 50/50 Floyd'd still get way more money fighting Manny than fighting Marquez. but you know what, the choices are not many left. we will see how he will do against someone like Manny/Cotto/Shane. Most if not all boxing analysts knew that Marquez didn't have a chance against Mayweather. but Shane or Pacman will make a good fight with him.
its called money...cotto brings more money than cotto.. thats a fact coz cotto;s got a whole country backing him up.. as for floyd, both mosley & marquez called him up and mosley will bring more money coz its a battle between two americans and true welterweights. instead he chose the little man coz he was scared,.,,,
boxing is also a business, pac got a few million reasons why he chose cotto over mosley.. and its not like he's picking a 6 yr old kid over a teenager... both cotto & mosley are true welterweights, and cotto beat mosley and cotto brings more money.. he is kinda ducking mosley in the sense that he cant fight two guys at the same time.. cotto was just the more logical choice.. now u tell me, is marquez the logical choice over mosley for floyd---ABSOLUTELY NOT- that nigger was just scared of mosley
@victoriouz18: Who the hell is scared of a 39 year old Mosley? Mosley would get his ass taxed by Mayweather. Nobody wants to fight that loser. I was in Tempe, Arizona when i watched the fight and everyone booed MAX KELLERMAN!!! Not Mayweather. Mayweather did not call Mosley into the ring. Mosley invited himself into the ring. Mayweather just simply asked him to come over. Max Kellerman CLEARLY instigated the argument. People will always hate Mayweather. No matter how good he performs.
the 39 year old mosley who almost took margarito's head off,,, floyd is scared, he dont want to risk it coz he knows he will get beat. Mosley is partner in GBP.. and it was a GBP promotion so he had the right to be there.. floyd asked mosley to come over. what did he expect? that mosley is just gonna stand there and congratulate him when he chose to fight the smaller marquez instead of him? floyd was stupid and scared he started stuttering when mosley was in his face...
WHo the fuck is Margarito? A cheater right? Hes lost all credibility. So here you have a steriod using Mosley and a cheating ass Maregarito and you call them champions? Wow! Mayweather always stutters. Everyone knows that. Watch all of his interviews. Its ok. After Mayweather kills Pacman, you can crawl back into your little rat hole.
Hey jhabeeb.. i think maybe you could get a spot on HBO on the panel for post match conversation, what you think bud? send in your cv mate! You got backing here in the UK! you know your stuff.. if you do, and you make it big, i only want 10% ok?? ha ha.. good luck bro.. Eddie Fitz
I agree, Kellerman instigated this but still Mosley is very disrespectful. This is Mayweather's night and if Mayweather doesn't wanna fight him, what can he do right?
nice analysis. i agree 100%, i seen the same thing. kellerman should be unemployed. he did a poor interview
btw, there is a cloud over floyd for being approx 10lbs visibly heavier then jmm fight night. unimpressive victory because he couldn't ko jmm as well predicted. weak power
Oh come on...Kellerman wasn't playing the bad guy, it was a conspiracy by the-powers-that-be who saw what fans (on the net) had been fantasizing to see.. and that was a "Pretty Boy Weenie Roast". And what a better time to goad PBF than when he dances out of his shell and tooting his own horn, ha ha! So Kellerman, Mosely, Hopkins, GBP, the cameraman, the lights, the moon, the stars, all aligned to set the crosshairs on Jr to put fire up his ass for a mega-fight.
Many other fighters have given tough interviews in the past. Does everyone forget the classic verbal battles between Ali and Cossell, Toney and Jim Gray, and Tyson and Jim Gray. Never was the mic pulled away or the interview cut short. The fighter is the star of the interview not the commentator. People pay to see the Mayweather not Kellerman. Mayweather generated over 1 million PPV buys not Kellerman. It's a fact.
I do not understand why some people think that the commentator is the focal point of the interview and not the fighter. The interview does not exist without the fighter. Who do you want to hear more of Mayweather of Kellerman? Mayweather is not the only fighter in boxing history to show dissent towards the media.
Secondly, bringing up Mosley as a contender is also his right, especially considering many in the boxing public think it would be an intriguing fight. After the scuffle, MK took away the mic...not because things weren't going "his way"...but because Mayweather was clearly not in control of his emotions, or himself, and there was no constructive point in continuing with the interview.
MK is there to ask questions which the public want asked.
It seems as if you only take Kellermans initial questions into account...and totally ignore the fact that he heaped praise on Mayweather throughout the fight. Kellerman, as a journalist, is there to ask the tough questions, the pressing questions.
Without a doubt, the weigh in controversy was a large looming question in the general public. To NOT ask that, would be disrespectful to the fans and educated boxing observers.
It's his job 2 dominate insofar as steer it where he & HBO want it 2 go. For example, when Floyd starts plugging his sponsors after MK asks him about his performance (you cut out some 2 min from the beginning of the interview), MK is supposed to grab hold of the reins & control the wild horse Mayweather. It's his job to get pertinent information from the fighter and because May is a bucking horse, he has to dominate to get to the bottom of it. He failed to dominate. All of you guys are being 2
...harsh on MK, 4 whatever reason-I don't see it, failing to see the bigger picture. It's like this: you criticize him for trying to dominate the interview, & then you criticize him some more for losing control, i.e. not dominating. Look up the meaning of dominate..."control" is one of the 1st words used in the definition. Lacking common sense, your witch hunt of MK is biased, unwarranted and doesn't take into account all the factors. This is a perfect example of scapegoating & haterism. Yes...
Max started something he couldn't finish. He appeared weak. Simple and plain. It's just my opinion. He didn't get the answers he wanted so he tucked his tail in between his legs and turned and ran. Again the ugly word hate is brought up when the least bit of disagreement surfaces. We just simple disagree here that's it. It's really no big deal. I think you are blowing this way out of proportion. With all due respect this will be my last response on this matter. Thanks for the debate.
..it's a word. In reality, you're giving MK too much power (he's not the only one responsible here) just to slam him when he looks the least bit weak. And, honestly, hating on someone, whether it's justified or not, is rarely a good idea. In doing that, you're exposing your weaknesses...i.e. telling us more about yourself than MK. You're betraying a jealousy that I do not share, my friend. MK knows boxing like few others & to mindlessly slam him without credit is just as weak as his soliloquy.
look bro this shit from mosley is all Golden Boy Promotions looking for a pay day...... u see they have loss the last 3 mega fights and Bob Aron and Top Rank is kickin their asses and now they don't want Floyd to fight the winner off Cotto and Pac because niether Cotto or Manny belong to them.... and that would be a SUPER MEGA FIGHT and they will not get anithing lol...... fuck shane he have to fight Clotty first. and Max had to ask Floyd about cotto or pac not shane so i agree with u in that.
MK belittles fighters? Really? Do you remember what he had 2 say about Floyd after the DLH fight when most observers near the mic were arguing against him? MK had Floyd's back, not because he had an agenda or HBO expected him 2, but because he was telling it like he saw it and like many people saw it after they re-watched & analyzed that fight. I believe he's a good commentator that also has a lot to learn. I thought the interview & the commotion in the ring was AWESOME! Highlight of the night.
You said it's Max's job to dominate the interview? Really? Max has the right to pull the mic away and cut off the fighter? Max never had control of this interview and appeared very weak. He lost control and tucked his tail betweeen his legs and sent it back down to Jim. This was a poor interview by Max. He failed miserably here. We are not in agreement here but you have a right to your own opinion.
Lastly, & excuse me for dominating the forum here, you seem to think it's not ok for MK to take the mic away from May, but you say nothing of May ripping it out of MK's hand. That's a double-standard. Or worse... It is the interviewer that holds the mic, always. &, you say nothing of May's total disregard for the fans & our curiosity. He played a huge part in the frustration that ensued. He frustrated by dodging simple questions & rubbing money in our faces. That's where the disrespect started.
J... If you were unbiased, you'd probably be less emotional. It's obvious here that you're pretty pissed off about this. It's hard to be unbiased when you get this emotional and start shouting. That being said, you have valid points, but I don't believe you're seeing the entire picture. HBO is not trying to make boxing look bad? Really? If Mosley was not disrespectful, how was MK? I don't know boxing like you, so I'll investigate MK more, but your mere aggression here begs dissent.
What really set me off was at the end when he pulled the mic away from Mayweather. I didn't mind Mosley doing what he did but Max was trying to act surprised when this whole thing happened. What did he expect was going to happen? Showing dissent has nothing to do with being unbiassed. I believe Max was being passive aggressive here. The two pounds turned out to be irrelevant. The fight wasn't even remotely close. The two pounds was really not an issue in my opinion.
Kellerman shld be shot for destroying the highlight of the fight between jmm and pbf. Fans did not pay to see the fight they went to see floyd's interview. His the most exciting during interview and put fans to sleep when his boxing. Heck its not the floyd-marquez fight rather its the kellerman-floyd fight and Kellerman won on a beatdown winning all rounds and ending with a KO. Nobody's talking about the fight everybody's talking about the kellerman interview. yes its kellerman time to shine.
Max Kellerman an instigator? Do you really care that much? What are you REALLY blaming him for? You've never seen a boxing commentator NOT try to call out 2 fighters?
But he needs to let people answer without pulling the mic away and when he doesn't get the answers he wants doesn't have to cut fighters off. he needs to understand he is not the show the fighter is.
I agree, ppl don't realize how hard it is to be a pro boxer, and for kellerman to disrespect the fighters like he does and take credit from the fights is unacceptable and it hurts boxing, mosley vs mayweather isn't happening, mayweather fights for the moneypot and cotto and pacman have croc pots while mosley is bringing pans to da stove
MK did have a clear agenda and was none too subtle in his approach, but he was trying to raise the questions people want answers to. If you let him, Mayweather will spend the whole interview talking about Al Haymon, Leonard Ellerbe, Reebok, a hundred other sponsors, money this and money that, and it all makes for a frightfully boring interview. I guess that's his prerogative, and again, Max could've taken a different tact, but the idea of pressing Floyd on these subjects was a good one, I think.
I agee with you joe..and good video..hehehe..but I think what kellerman ,mosley and HBO is trying to do is for floyd to fight a true welterwieght..so they made fun of him...hehehe..i think this is stage..and planned first hand.
Yes I agree this was pre-planned to promote the next mega fight and Kellerman can appear to be "smug" at times - but it didn't offend me as bad as it did you. First I don't feel Mayweather behavior has earned anyone in boxing's respect outside of his skills. He presents himself in an arrogrant, brash manner, doesn't fight who the fans want him to fight, says it's all about the money, and makes boring fights. Kellerman can be smug but I enjoy an opinionated announcer vs a moron like LenoxLewis
Kellerman instigated nothing. He mentioned Mosely just like any post fight interviewer would mention the next opponents. FLOYD beckoned Mosely to come over. May got upset BECAUSE shane and bernard were interrupting his interview instead of kissing his ass. No matter who was at fault this was good for boxing because it was more exciting than the fight.
it's a post fight interview, i.e., the main idea is to discuss the fight. it's not only disrespectful to floyd but also marquez, it's acting as if the fight itself isn't worth talking about.
Great video! Thanks for the walk through also. Just telling it like it is. This is exactly the truth. Max Kellermen should be fired. Donald Trump that mothereffer. Mosley is over the hill and desperate, it is obvious.Thanks again man. I would love to see a fight between you and Kellermen. That would be awesome. Oh and Kellermen was all over Pacmans sack when he beat Hatton.
The reason why Kellerman ask those question about the weight, was because Floyd and his camp refuse a pre fight interview about the weight. They also refused to be weighed before the fight. Kellerman is a true boxing fan and was asking the question that most of had on our mind. Floyd is such a doosh bag. A talented doosh bag but a doosh bag none the less..
I remember 10 years ago Max Kellerman used to be the shit he was the it guy before...the man has fallen off he was good on Friday night Fights though.
but how did he get the job on HBO? he tried to make floyd jr out to be a jerk and during the interview later jim lampley had to play dad and sympathize with kellerman who was about to cry after floyd dissed him.
I use to like Max until he pulled this BS...He's trying to be like Larry Merchant...Happy I saw it live so I didnt have to hear the little Weasel talk all night...
thats true, kellerman is rubbish, they should have got larry merchant to do the interveiw, he would have stirred even more but he comes out with the real questions, that old man isnt shy...lol! kellerman gets a little pressure and sends it over to jim...what the fuck?
Truth of the matter is boxing is on its way out cause UFC is way better... I never thought Id see the day that boxing would have no attraction in the heavyweight division... Hopkins was more of the crap talker but he was just looking to promote a fight...
KELLERMAN HAD a bad night of interviewing. I understand he acts like a bias fan sometimes but his position in this setting is to interview. he did that well by asking the hard questions about weight and size first. The problem here was an impromptu w/ mosley + hopkins. Floyd's glorious night was being tarnished by an interruption. Floyd said it himself Joe. Kellerman + Floyd + Hopkins + Mosley = confused. fans = more hype. interview ='s disappointment. Kellerman? better apologize 4 bringing Msly
You're wrong Joe. Max gave Floyd credit for the victory twice. The interview is about 90 seconds in at the time you started it. Mosley didn't come in 10 seconds into the interview!! Max was asking questions about the weight and pushed Floyd to answer. GOOD! Then Mosley came in disrespectfully and Max was in a bad spot. He did OK imo, "Not now shane" and went back to Floyd asking him another tough q about the selection of JMM and when Floyd disrepected Max he took none of it. Great from Max.
Kellerman is trying to imitate larry merchant, both are commentators who havn't boxed a round in their life which is why they always come up with stupid condescending questions, Floyd deserved a lot more respect than he did for the marquez fight and maybe people will only respect the fighter that he is 10 yrs down the line, he had been out of action for nearly 2 yrs and was coming up against a fighter who Manny Pacquiao probably lost to twice if not at least once in my opinion
Every point you made here is a valid point.. when you watch the interview watch how kellerman only puts the mic to floyd for a split second then pulls it back! Hey.. message to Kellerman Floyd is the star of the show not you!!!!!!!!!!
I agree whether Mayweather is 146 or 144, Marquez would still be demolished. It was a 100% mismatch. Mayweather is too talented and too fast for Marquez. Marquez is good only at 130 or 135. I look forward to the Mayweather - Pacquiao fight and I hope that Pacquiao would fight him at 147 so whoever wins will be the best P4P fighter. My heart is 4 Pacman but I admire PBF too.
I want you guys to check steve bunce say's againts MK...Trully great comment on him...He(MK) is ruinning the boxing world, and we don't need such moron
its funny how PBF says that he lets Ellerbe conduct his fights...nigga you said "you were your own boss and you move when you wanna move!" Mark ass nigga shaking in his boots and shit when mosely comes through haha!!
Serious shit i thought Mosley totally Kanye West him..It was suppose to be Mayweather talking LIke wtf is he doing there in the first place and Yeah kellerman Should've shut the fuck up and let mayweather talk! WHo agrees!!
Kellerman is a disrespectful inexperienced arrogant mouth piece that is biased and HBO need to fire him for his unethical sportsmanship. These fighters put there lives on the line every time they step in the ring for our entertainment. Kellerman is one the reasons why boxing is struggling with it's audience share. We need fresh faces that are unbiased. Also real people that can come to work and leave there EGOs at home so they can stop people like kellerman ruining such a fantastic sport.
Watch from the beginning, you'll hear how many times MK compliments Mayweather. He was asking pertinent questions while May was elusive in answering as he is in the ring. Shane, Bernard had most to do with the circus that resulted. Mayweather could've kept his cool better, too. Crowd booed him when he stole the mic. Kellerman might have ended up as the guy who started it all, but he had no intention of sampling what ensued. He just couldn't hold his own. Lost control... i thought he might cry.
I disagree. 1st, it was about a min into the interview when MK mentioned SM. After he genuinely congratulated May (MK is a big fan of his) on a great performance & May started plugging his sponsors. No, MK didn't want all that to happen & didn't "dominate" the interview. He was trying to wrestle the control back after GoldenBoys & Floyd hijacked the mic & argued. MK got dominated. But, he was asking our question. Will May fight a WW? What's with the blaming & hating, Beeb? watch?v=OIPM2HxOPEg
you just dont do what kellerman did ,yea you ask questions but not like that .how come when mayweather moved up from 135 2 fight gatti and oscar no one complained.its about marketing he is not doing what they want so they are trying 2 make a fight happen thats not in their power 2 make happen.kellerman is not fighting so he should stop all the dumb questions ,who in their right mind comes back after 2 years off and fights shane mosley .this was a tune up fight for floyd and a chance for marquez
Fourth, I do believe they are both good in their respective weight. If Pacquiao can handle Cotto very easily, then he is the best match for Floyd.
Fifth, we would really like to see them fight on May 2010. Both are fast, Pacquiao the best offensive boxer and Floyd, the best defensive boxer. I can't wait to see this mega-fight!
third, Pacquiao is comfortable at 140lbs and is faster and stronger puncher than Marquez. Pacquiao's win over Hatton may not be the right gauge also to say that he is better than floyd, but can be a point to show floyd that they have the best trainers and coach that can study the oponent well. (compare how team floyd and team pacquiao handle hatton).
first, i do believe that it is very improper and unethical with what mosley and hopkins did. they should show respect...so that they will be respected also.
second, floyd is amazing last night compared to marquez. But this is not the gauge of him being better than pacquiao. Marquez is fast at 130lbs but not 142lbs. He is very slow compared to his fight with Pacquiao. And that time Pacquiao is having a hrd time making 130lbs.
I almost completely agree with you. i would pay a $100 ppv, to watch shane and floyd go head to head. the dismantling that shane distributed to margarito, and that post fight interview, left me only imagining what he would do to floyd. Of course, floyd is a perfectly balanced boxer, offensively and defensively, any legitimate boxer would have a hard time penetrating his defense, but i believe mosley is fast enough, and strong enough to knock out floyd. personally, floyd v shane, has mass appeal.
I agree with your assessment jhabeeb1. I liked Kellerman more when he was on ESPN with Wednesday and Friday Night Fights. I still think Shane was disrespectful. Like Floyd said, I don't disrespect you by interrupting your interviews after a fight.
I agree that Kellerman instigated that incident. With that said I don't think that Kellerman, Mosley, or Hopkins should have been screwing with Mayweather after the performance like that. I am not a big fan of Mayweather's mouth, BUT the guy shows up to fight and he always backs up what he says. I thought the exact same thing you did about that post-fight interview.
marquez looks hella slow the weight slowed him down miss match well planned by mayweathers camp they look at every angle and all theyre advantage height reach weight miss match all the way marquez is good but no experience fighting as welter weight
MOSLEY apologists out there...do guys really think he can beat mayweather?? c'mon man let's be real...he lost to cotto..LOST TO COTTO!!! are u kidding me? giving him a chance agains mayweather????c'mon!!!..he's an old fart and he should retire. his time has gone way past..he's very desperate indeed.. plss he's not dangerous at all..not a single bit! he's a good fighter..but not in the category of mayweather and pacman. i rest my case..again MOSLEY LOST TO COTTO PERIOD.
i'm not a big mayweather fan.. but guys lets be real here, he is a total package. he's a very smart fighter, an excellent defensive fighter, excellent reader i think he's not an exciting fighter like pacman but he is a hall of fame fighter and we should acknowledge that! KELLERMAN SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO BE A COMMENTATOR! MAKE HIM REPLACE JERRY SPRINGER..KELLERMAN IS A DICKHEAD, STUPID IDIOT
lmao this is BOXING not some awards show or jerry springer bullshit. kellerman just wants floyd to answer the people, and so does mosely AND hopkins! this is embarrassing for mayweather. it could have been any other commentator asking the same shit cuz thats what WE really want to know! if mayweather was just be straight up and honest, he wouldnt have as much ppl doubting him. mayweather talks trash just like his father
dont get me wrong mayweather the best. he would fight anyone. but its kinda odd the champ would have to prove anything to other fighters. they are the ones with something to prove. alot of people dont like floyd cuz he real. he just being himself. they say his fights are boring. but he just so skillful makes pro. look like rookies. I really liked marques in this fight thought he was a strong opponent. but floyd picked him apart. but marques still caught floyd with some clean shots.
that fight proved nothing but the fact that marquez is not a welterweight. and the only reason marquez went up in the first place was to chase pacquiao. i gained more respect for marquez for putting up such a challenge.
i totally agree..kellerman is an idiot ..egotistic dumbass. douche bag asshole. you're right in that instead of celebrating a fighter's accomplishments and focusing on them he's trying to get the spotlight for himself. bring larry merchant back.kellerman should never be allowed to be a commentator again
that is so dumb do you even watch boxing?? they dont always celebrate and praise a fighter after a match?? theyre usually suppose to ask what ppl WANT to know. kellerman is not an idiot who falls for mayweathers talking games.
money talks. altho people that know a sugar shane mosley, would love to see him and floyd fight, would not generate money as a pac man fight. but a shane fight would be good for his legacy. but understand shane called out pac too. you dont hear people mentioning that. but pac and his crew know thats a dangerous fight with mosley. and if he were to loose, a fight with mayweather would not make as much money.or even happen. boxing is buisness as much as a fighter's skill.
jhabeeb1, i could almost say every word commin out your mouth when you were thinking it. i agree 200%. when everything is said and done. mayweather was robbed of his chance to glo in the mist of his victory. Kellerman, was almost like Kanye west.. in a way lol
Mayweather get no credit for that fight. Marquez was way to small for him and he knows it. I give marquez credit for going up in weight. Max Kellerman is an instigator and was put in his place by Mayweather. Mayweather doesnt want anything to do with Mosely cause its too risky for him.
this fight should''ve never happen ...mayweather has to fight a true welter...why pick a fight that u know you'll win he scared to lose his 40-0 i think he doesn't any blemish on his record so he'll fight good boxers but not great boxers...i'm glad shane mosley step in the ring and address the whole world that he wants the top dogs..PAC n PBF..
Jhabeeb I respect your opinion but I disaree with you. Mayweather beat a naturally smaller man. Marquez showed great heart by gaining weight and fighting a man 2 divisions bigger than him. Max was cut off before he had a chance to ask Mayweather why he avoids fighters who are in his own weight class. That is what he meant by saying "Your Size". Mayweather doesn't want to fight anyone he feels has a chance to beat him. He was asked the same questions on ESPN. He has skills but not much heart.
Well, I think the issue thats been bugging me is this: i hear a lot of different analysts making it sound like the difference was a few pounds and im pretty sure it was more like 10-15.
I think it was a moderate factor, but i think his frame and skills, like you said, carried the day. i heard kellerman mention marquez's style didn't transfer to welterweight as well as pacquiaos did, but i really think marquez is more of a pure featherweight and had no business going that high up
Yeah he was good on ESPN but once HBO got a hold of him everything changed. He became their puppet. Did you ever wonder why Roy Jones and George Foreman don't work for HBO anymore? It's because they had original thought and they weren't puppets. Kellerman is soft.
all i have 2 say shane mosely that's a true welter floyd stop ducking floyd is just waiting for mosely 2 get more older that way hill get a over the hill mosely floyd aint stupid i no what he is trying 2 do he aint try 2 fight paul wil or mosely or cotto
who the fuck is Mayweather..he is not even the champion..what gives him the right to demand shit!!!That is why Mike Wilbon of ESPN Sporstcenter who is black by the way, calls Mayweather >>a COWARD>>>a fucking coward!!!! he is calling his own people a coward...Nobody with authority calls Pacquiao a coward..how is that???

How did Kellerman instigate anything? By asking if there's a possible fight between 2 fighters? That's his godamn job, Hopkins started the conflict by opening his mouth (as he always does), not Kellerman...
This is completely ridiculous, Kellerman isn't responsible for what either of the fighters say during the interview, he's there for one reason, to interview the fighters, and that's what he did, he asked a legitimate question about a stipulation that usually isn't on contracts...

@m1ndtr1p
Furthermore, Floyd picks and chooses his fights carefully, and if you look into his past, he's always tried to have an advantage over his opponents one way or another, otherwise, he ducks any opponent that would pose a challenge to him... He couldn't do this with Cotto, he dodged him until he had no choice but to fight him, but he "retired" instead... Then he comes back to take on an older, heavier Marquez with this stipulation in the contract which didn't make sense...

@m1ndtr1p
So fast forward to now, he's trying to get Pacquiao to take random blood tests before the fight... Why? Because Pacquiao doesn't like needles. The last time he had to take a blood test a day before a fight, he was feeling sick, he wasn't his best and THAT's what Floyd is counting on, again, trying to gain an unfair advantage over his opponent.
Who is Floyd to demand those tests be done? He's not the boxing commission, he has absolutely no authority at all. He's just scared of Pac.

I totally agree dude. Good vid and video recollection at the beginning. I was like why is everyone on Shane when he said like one sentence and he was already in the ring because of the promotion LOL. Kellerman and Bernard the little "lethal weapon tag team" instigated that blow up.
govia21 1 year ago
I see where you are coming from; that is a fair observation, regarding the instigation. Max Kellerman has a tendency to do things like that; this is not the first time where I have seen a fighter get agitated with him in a post fight interview. Basically, it would have been better for Shane to have gone in there by himself without Hopkins, as everything went sour once Bernard put his two cents in. I am not a big fan of Floyd's fighting decisions either however I agree with your point here.

Serious question here. Floyd has said he weighed the same as Pacquiao at 16 yrs old. Does anybody have any video footage of Mayweather Jr. throughout his career, so we can see his muscle development and compare to Manny. There suspiciously is a short supply of videos of Floyd from his early career. I am beginning to think there may be reason to suspect Floyd of roids as well. Where are the videos of Floyd so we can decide for ourselves?

The fact is that Mosely is the one who stepped up the agression. I have a feeling that the true instigator here is Hopkins. This guy says Kellerman was controlling the interview. Kellerman was NOT in control of anything, that's why he had to throw to Jim. It was out of control.

NoxDeadly 2 years ago
you're not making sense. many people agreed that Castillo beat Mayweather in their first fight. and does that matter? in the end it was just a close fight and Mayweather got the W. Pacman got the W over Marquez and Floyd should have chosen to fight Manny because of that. Not to mention the obvious bigger money awaiting if to fight Manny. it just seemed that Floyd saw Manny as a threat and he chose to fight Marquez, slower and older fighter than Manny, for less money instead. tell me why is that?
AmericanPsycho2930 2 years ago
if u weren't just a spectator u'd kno bob arum is the one that ruined the fight between floyd and pac, floyd wanted 60% cuz we all kno he sells the most tickets but bob was greedy and wanted 50%, ur also blind cuz castillo's punches were blocked in the first fight, if he landed wat they say he landed, why was there not one mark on floyd's face? u can't recieve over 200 punches to the face without even a bruise, if castillo landed more pucnhes why was his face so fucked up after the fight?
NoxDeadly 2 years ago
my point was Floyd got the W and Manny got the W so they should fight each other. even if they did 50/50 Floyd'd still get way more money fighting Manny than fighting Marquez. but you know what, the choices are not many left. we will see how he will do against someone like Manny/Cotto/Shane. Most if not all boxing analysts knew that Marquez didn't have a chance against Mayweather. but Shane or Pacman will make a good fight with him.

boxing is also a business, pac got a few million reasons why he chose cotto over mosley.. and its not like he's picking a 6 yr old kid over a teenager... both cotto & mosley are true welterweights, and cotto beat mosley and cotto brings more money.. he is kinda ducking mosley in the sense that he cant fight two guys at the same time.. cotto was just the more logical choice.. now u tell me, is marquez the logical choice over mosley for floyd---ABSOLUTELY NOT- that nigger was just scared of mosley
victoriouz18 2 years ago
@victoriouz18: Who the hell is scared of a 39 year old Mosley? Mosley would get his ass taxed by Mayweather. Nobody wants to fight that loser. I was in Tempe, Arizona when i watched the fight and everyone booed MAX KELLERMAN!!! Not Mayweather. Mayweather did not call Mosley into the ring. Mosley invited himself into the ring. Mayweather just simply asked him to come over. Max Kellerman CLEARLY instigated the argument. People will always hate Mayweather. No matter how good he performs.

Many other fighters have given tough interviews in the past. Does everyone forget the classic verbal battles between Ali and Cossell, Toney and Jim Gray, and Tyson and Jim Gray. Never was the mic pulled away or the interview cut short. The fighter is the star of the interview not the commentator. People pay to see the Mayweather not Kellerman. Mayweather generated over 1 million PPV buys not Kellerman. It's a fact.
jhabeeb1 2 years ago
I do not understand why some people think that the commentator is the focal point of the interview and not the fighter. The interview does not exist without the fighter. Who do you want to hear more of Mayweather of Kellerman? Mayweather is not the only fighter in boxing history to show dissent towards the media.
jhabeeb1 2 years ago
Secondly, bringing up Mosley as a contender is also his right, especially considering many in the boxing public think it would be an intriguing fight. After the scuffle, MK took away the mic...not because things weren't going "his way"...but because Mayweather was clearly not in control of his emotions, or himself, and there was no constructive point in continuing with the interview.
MK is there to ask questions which the public want asked.
For the fighter it's a privilege, not a right.
akaman85 2 years ago
It seems as if you only take Kellermans initial questions into account...and totally ignore the fact that he heaped praise on Mayweather throughout the fight. Kellerman, as a journalist, is there to ask the tough questions, the pressing questions.

It's his job 2 dominate insofar as steer it where he & HBO want it 2 go. For example, when Floyd starts plugging his sponsors after MK asks him about his performance (you cut out some 2 min from the beginning of the interview), MK is supposed to grab hold of the reins & control the wild horse Mayweather. It's his job to get pertinent information from the fighter and because May is a bucking horse, he has to dominate to get to the bottom of it. He failed to dominate. All of you guys are being 2
dawidziwsko 2 years ago
...harsh on MK, 4 whatever reason-I don't see it, failing to see the bigger picture. It's like this: you criticize him for trying to dominate the interview, & then you criticize him some more for losing control, i.e. not dominating. Look up the meaning of dominate..."control" is one of the 1st words used in the definition. Lacking common sense, your witch hunt of MK is biased, unwarranted and doesn't take into account all the factors. This is a perfect example of scapegoating & haterism. Yes...

Max started something he couldn't finish. He appeared weak. Simple and plain. It's just my opinion. He didn't get the answers he wanted so he tucked his tail in between his legs and turned and ran. Again the ugly word hate is brought up when the least bit of disagreement surfaces. We just simple disagree here that's it. It's really no big deal. I think you are blowing this way out of proportion. With all due respect this will be my last response on this matter. Thanks for the debate.
jhabeeb1 2 years ago
..it's a word. In reality, you're giving MK too much power (he's not the only one responsible here) just to slam him when he looks the least bit weak. And, honestly, hating on someone, whether it's justified or not, is rarely a good idea. In doing that, you're exposing your weaknesses...i.e. telling us more about yourself than MK. You're betraying a jealousy that I do not share, my friend. MK knows boxing like few others & to mindlessly slam him without credit is just as weak as his soliloquy.

MK belittles fighters? Really? Do you remember what he had 2 say about Floyd after the DLH fight when most observers near the mic were arguing against him? MK had Floyd's back, not because he had an agenda or HBO expected him 2, but because he was telling it like he saw it and like many people saw it after they re-watched & analyzed that fight. I believe he's a good commentator that also has a lot to learn. I thought the interview & the commotion in the ring was AWESOME! Highlight of the night.

You said it's Max's job to dominate the interview? Really? Max has the right to pull the mic away and cut off the fighter? Max never had control of this interview and appeared very weak.

We are not in agreement here but you have a right to your own opinion.

Lastly, & excuse me for dominating the forum here, you seem to think it's not ok for MK to take the mic away from May, but you say nothing of May ripping it out of MK's hand. That's a double-standard. Or worse... It is the interviewer that holds the mic, always. &, you say nothing of May's total disregard for the fans & our curiosity. He played a huge part in the frustration that ensued. He frustrated by dodging simple questions & rubbing money in our faces. That's where the disrespect started.

J... If you were unbiased, you'd probably be less emotional. It's obvious here that you're pretty pissed off about this. It's hard to be unbiased when you get this emotional and start shouting. That being said, you have valid points, but I don't believe you're seeing the entire picture. HBO is not trying to make boxing look bad? Really? If Mosley was not disrespectful, how was MK? I don't know boxing like you, so I'll investigate MK more, but your mere aggression here begs dissent.
dawidziwsko 2 years ago
What really set me off was at the end when he pulled the mic away from Mayweather. I didn't mind Mosley doing what he did but Max was trying to act surprised when this whole thing happened. What did he expect was going to happen? Showing dissent has nothing to do with being unbiassed. I believe Max was being passive aggressive here. The two pounds turned out to be irrelevant. The fight wasn't even remotely close. The two pounds was really not an issue in my opinion.

I guess that's his prerogative, and again, Max could've taken a different tact, but the idea of pressing Floyd on these subjects was a good one, I think.

The reason why Kellerman ask those question about the weight, was because Floyd and his camp refuse a pre fight interview about the weight. They also refused to be weighed before the fight.

KELLERMAN HAD a bad night of interviewing.

The problem here was an impromptu w/ mosley + hopkins. Floyd's glorious night was being tarnished by an interruption. Floyd said it himself Joe.

You're wrong Joe. Max gave Floyd credit for the victory twice. The interview is about 90 seconds in at the time you started it. Mosley didn't come in 10 seconds into the interview!! Max was asking questions about the weight and pushed Floyd to answer. GOOD! Then Mosley came in disrespectfully and Max was in a bad spot. He did OK imo, "Not now shane" and went back to Floyd asking him another tough q about the selection of JMM and when Floyd disrepected Max he took none of it. Great from Max.

Kellerman is trying to imitate larry merchant, both are commentators who havn't boxed a round in their life which is why they always come up with stupid condescending questions, Floyd deserved a lot more respect than he did for the marquez fight and maybe people will only respect the fighter that he is 10 yrs down the line, he had been out of action for nearly 2 yrs and was coming up against a fighter who Manny Pacquiao probably lost to twice if not at least once in my opinion

Every point you made here is a valid point.. when you watch the interview watch how kellerman only puts the mic to floyd for a split second then pulls it back! Hey.. message to Kellerman Floyd is the star of the show not you!!!!!!!!!!

I totally agree. After years of putting up with Larry Merchant pretending to be Cosell, now we have Kellerman thinking the show is about him.
I'm glad you posted this. Kellerman never planned to talk about the fight from the beginning.

I agree whether Mayweather is 146 or 144, Marquez would still be demolished. It was a 100% mismatch. Mayweather is too talented and too fast for Marquez. Marquez is good only at 130 or 135. I look forward to the Mayweather - Pacquiao fight and I hope that Pacquiao would fight him at 147 so whoever wins will be the best P4P fighter. My heart is 4 Pacman but I admire PBF too.

Kellerman is a disrespectful inexperienced arrogant mouth piece that is biased and HBO need to fire him for his unethical sportsmanship. These fighters put there lives on the line every time they step in the ring for our entertainment. Kellerman is one the reasons why boxing is struggling with it's audience share. We need fresh faces that are unbiased. Also real people that can come to work and leave there EGOs at home so they can stop people like kellerman ruining such a fantastic sport.

Watch from the beginning, you'll hear how many times MK compliments Mayweather. He was asking pertinent questions while May was elusive in answering as he is in the ring. Shane, Bernard had most to do with the circus that resulted. Mayweather could've kept his cool better, too. Crowd booed him when he stole the mic. Kellerman might have ended up as the guy who started it all, but he had no intention of sampling what ensued. He just couldn't hold his own. Lost control... i thought he might cry.
dawidziwsko 2 years ago
I disagree. 1st, it was about a min into the interview when MK mentioned SM. After he genuinely congratulated May (MK is a big fan of his) on a great performance & May started plugging his sponsors. No, MK didn't want all that to happen & didn't "dominate" the interview. He was trying to wrestle the control back after GoldenBoys & Floyd hijacked the mic & argued. MK got dominated. But, he was asking our question. Will May fight a WW? What's with the blaming & hating, Beeb? watch?v=OIPM2HxOPEg
dawidziwsko 2 years ago
come on...don't blame this on kellerman.. kellerman was just doing his job like he was supposed to...
it's perfectly normal to ask about possible future matchups to the winner of a fight... and mayweather-mosley is a perfectly legitimate matchup...
if this argument was anybody's fault, it wasn't kellerman's.. if anything, it was mosley and mayweather's...

Fourth, I do believe they are both good in their respective weight. If Pacquiao can handle Cotto very easily, then he is the best match for Floyd.
Fifth, we would really like to see them fight on May 2010. Both are fast, Pacquiao the best offensive boxer and Floyd, the best defensive boxer. I can't wait to see this mega-fight!
crisnmp1 2 years ago
third, Pacquiao is comfortable at 140lbs and is faster and stronger puncher than Marquez. Pacquiao's win over Hatton may not be the right gauge also to say that he is better than floyd, but can be a point to show floyd that they have the best trainers and coach that can study the oponent well. (compare how team floyd and team pacquiao handle hatton).

Mayweather was 160 fight night marquez 146 go figure
ote24 2 years ago
first, i do believe that it is very improper and unethical with what mosley and hopkins did. they should show respect...so that they will be respected also.
second, floyd is amazing last night compared to marquez. But this is not the gauge of him being better than pacquiao. Marquez is fast at 130lbs but not 142lbs. He is very slow compared to his fight with Pacquiao. And that time Pacquiao is having a hrd time making 130lbs.
crisnmp1 2 years ago
I almost completely agree with you. i would pay a $100 ppv, to watch shane and floyd go head to head. the dismantling that shane distributed to margarito, and that post fight interview, left me only imagining what he would do to floyd. Of course, floyd is a perfectly balanced boxer, offensively and defensively, any legitimate boxer would have a hard time penetrating his defense, but i believe mosley is fast enough, and strong enough to knock out floyd. personally, floyd v shane, has mass appeal.

I agree that Kellerman instigated that incident. With that said I don't think that Kellerman, Mosley, or Hopkins should have been screwing with Mayweather after the performance like that. I am not a big fan of Mayweather's mouth, BUT the guy shows up to fight and he always backs up what he says. I thought the exact same thing you did about that post-fight interview.

KELLERMAN SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO BE A COMMENTATOR! MAKE HIM REPLACE JERRY SPRINGER..KELLERMAN IS A DICKHEAD, STUPID IDIOT
vinjohn25 2 years ago
lmao this is BOXING not some awards show or jerry springer bullshit. kellerman just wants floyd to answer the people, and so does mosely AND hopkins! this is embarrassing for mayweather. it could have been any other commentator asking the same shit cuz thats what WE really want to know! if mayweather was just be straight up and honest, he wouldnt have as much ppl doubting him. mayweather talks trash just like his father
swiffstep 2 years ago 2
dont get me wrong mayweather the best. he would fight anyone. but its kinda odd the champ would have to prove anything to other fighters. they are the ones with something to prove. alot of people dont like floyd cuz he real. he just being himself. they say his fights are boring. but he just so skillful makes pro. look like rookies. I really liked marques in this fight thought he was a strong opponent. but floyd picked him apart. but marques still caught floyd with some clean shots.
clinan04 2 years ago
that fight proved nothing but the fact that marquez is not a welterweight. and the only reason marquez went up in the first place was to chase pacquiao. i gained more respect for marquez for putting up such a challenge.

that is so dumb do you even watch boxing?? they dont always celebrate and praise a fighter after a match?? theyre usually suppose to ask what ppl WANT to know. kellerman is not an idiot who falls for mayweathers talking games.

money talks. altho people that know a sugar shane mosley, would love to see him and floyd fight, would not generate money as a pac man fight. but a shane fight would be good for his legacy. but understand shane called out pac too. you dont hear people mentioning that. but pac and his crew know thats a dangerous fight with mosley. and if he were to loose, a fight with mayweather would not make as much money.or even happen. boxing is buisness as much as a fighter's skill.

Mayweather get no credit for that fight. Marquez was way to small for him and he knows it. I give marquez credit for going up in weight. Max Kellerman is an instigator and was put in his place by Mayweather. Mayweather doesnt want anything to do with Mosely cause its too risky for him.

jason96732 2 years ago
Jhabeeb I respect your opinion but I disaree with you. Mayweather beat a naturally smaller man. Marquez showed great heart by gaining weight and fighting a man 2 divisions bigger than him. Max was cut off before he had a chance to ask Mayweather why he avoids fighters who are in his own weight class. That is what he meant by saying "Your Size". Mayweather doesn't want to fight anyone he feels has a chance to beat him. He was asked the same questions on ESPN. He has skills but not much heart.

Well, I think the issue thats been bugging me is this: i hear a lot of different analysts making it sound like the difference was a few pounds and im pretty sure it was more like 10-15.
I think it was a moderate factor, but i think his frame and skills, like you said, carried the day. i heard kellerman mention marquez's style didn't transfer to welterweight as well as pacquiaos did, but i really think marquez is more of a pure featherweight and had no business going that high up
