Plus, he looks back on his crazy college experience at Florida, unloads on the state of Utah, discusses his two title runs and recounts his battles with MJ.

This interview brought me back to all the smoke 💨
This interview was HI-LARIOUS.😂😂
Dude was one of the most athletic dudes of his era. One of my favorite off gaurds.
Long live Mad Max. Florida Boy and H Town legend.
Real Florida Boy 🎁💐Respect
Loved the show with Max one hell of a player ….👍🏾
Ty Maxxxxxx
Your high school never burned down from the KKK. Don’t be lying about fake racism
1M in 2 weeks, this goto be one of the best yet 😂😂😂… We DEMAND MORE MAD MAXIMUMS
Yall need ta bring in more OG's,
These stories are gold!
I really enjoyed this interview, I've watched it twice! 😂😂😂
So is she still there?
Comedian George Lopez said the late Charlie Murphy was a great storyteller too. Vernon Maxwell is top tier baby. He's handsome too.☺️
He sound just like a gainesville florida ninja 😂😂 im telling you he speak just like my uncle and my dad. And they both from down here in gainesville
Max got me over here crying. 😂
39:06 I lived in ND and they surely didn’t celebrate MLK holiday those people would rather work on a national holiday. IDC how I feel about a person if it’s a holiday I’m staying HOME!
Uncle Max so cold! Just off of his personality you can tell he one of them, one of them real ones….Love & Respect “The Best Episode Yet”
Much love for Max! I grew up in Houston in the 80’s and 90’s, and we loved the Rockets!! “NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE HEART OF A CHAMPION”!
Max is damn hilarious 😂
