Boxer accused in hammer death of writer

 

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A boxer who fights under the nickname "The Harlem Hammer" pleaded not guilty Friday to charges that he used a hammer to murder a freelance sportswriter and then torched his Hollywood apartment.

 

James Butler, 31, was charged with murder and arson following his Wednesday arrest and was being held on $1.25 million bail, said Sandi Gibbons, the district attorney's spokeswoman.

 

Sam Kellerman, 29, was found dead Sunday at his apartment. His car was missing. Authorities believe he was killed on Oct. 12, according to a district attorney's statement.

 

Kellerman was the younger brother of Max Kellerman, host of Fox Sports Net's boxing program "I, Max," and covered professional boxing, Gibbons said.

 

She said Butler and the sportswriter were friends. The boxer had been staying at Kellerman's apartment since late September.

 

Butler, whose professional record is 20-5, is best known for sucker-punching opponent Richard Grant in November 2001 after losing a charity match.

 

A status hearing in Butler's case was scheduled for Oct. 28.

Too bad it wasn't Kellermen... God he is awful. Good insight with Boxing but he reminds me too much of Jim Rome....Yes I know I am going to hell for that one.

That's a horrible thing to say. Why don't you get a f***ing soul.

Not different sports views, just he is very annoying... but since everyone is so sensitive to this I will leave it be... My apologies to all those offended.

Of course we are sensitive about it, you just wished some one innocent should be dead...

Get off his case, it was a spur of the moment kind of thing (though I don't think you should have said it either, EJ). But he apologized, so just lay off...

 

EDIT: And back to the thread topic, my condolences go out to the Kellerman family.

:headshake This is just spectacular. Just back off, there is no reason to get all upity about this. What's done is done, what's said is said. He said something, people didn't like it and said so, that should be it. Let it go.
