|
Kellerman graduated from New York City's Hunter College High School and, later, Columbia College in 1998 . Before moving to FSN , Kellerman hosted ESPN's '' Around The Horn '' and was an analyst on ESPN's Boxing series '' Friday Night Fights ''. However, Kellerman and ESPN could not reach an agreement for him to remain with the network. Kellerman was promptly hired by Fox Sports Net. He went on to host a new show with FSN called '' I, Max '' that first aired on May 10 , 2004 . He would discuss sports news one on one with Michael Holley , author of ''Patriot Reign: Bill Belichick, the Coaches, and the Players Who Built a Champion''. On October 17 , 2004 , Kellerman's brother, Sam was found murdered; authorities believe he was killed on October 12 . Former USBA Super Middleweight champion James Butler has been arrested and charged. In March , 2006 , Butler pled guilty to the murder of Sam. Max took time off from the show after his brother's death. After returning to the show, the format changed slightly and it didn't have the same feel to it. It seemed as if his brother's death had seriously affected Max from being Max. Due to low Ratings his last show aired on February 18 , 2005 . His future at FSN basically unfulfilled, Max now hosts a show on 1050-ESPN Radio in New York City. {Link without Title} In 2005, Tucker Carlson announced that Kellerman would be a permanent contributor on his MSNBC show '' The Situation With Tucker Carlson ''. On a segment of the show called "The Outsider", Kellerman generally represents the "devil's advocate" position on a series of issues selected by Carlson. Frequently, Carlson introduces Kellerman with a bio containing a humorously enthusiastic compliment. Kellerman has also been hired by HBO Sports to serve as a boxing analyst, a post he formerly held at ESPN and Fox Sports. Max takes part in an all Yiddish week, sponsored by Yugntruf (lit. call to the youth) which takes place annually in the Berkshire Hills Emanuel Adult Vacation Center. Max has pointed out on numerous occasions on ''The Situation'' that "Max" is not short for anything, and that he does not have a Middle Name . On ''The Situation,'' Max has also professed to being an atheist. QUOTES
