Because Floyd got cold feet, ran and hid under Al Haymon's skirt... again. WTF do you want Curtis to do? He's already invested in the sport, and when the #1 Cash cow won't play ball, maybe the #2 will.

Gam looks like war is on his mind. Gotta give props to Curtis....he's no going half way in on this whole boxing promoter thing. Not even 1 year in the game and he's got a stable of blue chip fighters...a top trainer....his own gym....a big PPV event where two of his fighters are being showcased. What more people want or expect from 50 is beyond me. He's doing things for these fighters now! Part of the problem between Floyd and 50 is Curtis felt responsible for these fighters career where Floyd wanted to move at his own pace.
Which meant the career of these fighters would be at the mercy of Floyd's timeline. 50 has zero....nill....nunca experience in boxing promotion, but he's some how was able to accomplish some pretty significant things even after burning some pretty major bridges in the process with guys like De La Hoya and Haymon. Curtis has the ability to add a new hustle to his portfolio, pick up the "need to knows" and make it a successful venture. He's done it a lot. The mistakes he's made thus far will be taken as a learning experience. I believe 50 is going to be a major player in this game in the next 2 years. |

Because of crab mentality and insecurity issues. They get checked and made fun of if they make spelling mistakes or if they do not become acceptable or cool enough so they have to make it up via good education and showing off. It's basically sad since most pinoys are gifted and talented and all they have to do is be themselves and not care what other people think, but because of crab mentality and insecurities, the ego comes 1st and that's why the country is still stuck being in the 3rd world when they could have been a 2nd or develop world a long time ago. I'm sure Filipinos knows what I'm talking about but they will probably start calling me or you names. By the way not all Filipinos are like these, there are good hearted hardworking pinoys too. |
