    Hello Paul. I know you don't have anybody paying u to post, but your knowledge of public relations, especially Internet, seems hella more than the average bear. Was only wondering if you are a writer or publicist for a living?

    Again I'm not implying, more complementing skills. Even if I don't always agree with some of your opinions

    I think you're confusing myself, possibly, with yourself. :thumbsup

    Thanks! :thumbsup

    I know enough about how the media and PR games work to know something when I see it. I used to work in media. I have done some limited writing in the past.

    But overall, I'm nobody. Just A Guy. I've spent a good amount of time, though, researching public relations and how it works, including in the internet age. I would advise anyone to do the same -- it is very illuminating once you can see the things unfolding before you.

    Doubt if he's paying LEGIT press. Maybe ill-equipped, unpaid boxing-site writers for the thrill of rubbing shoulders with insiders 'n wearing press credentials at fights.

    Hello John, hope you're havin a good day. I'm with family today and lovin it.

    IMO it would se in the current age it would be smart for the larger promotional firms to have a "team" of individuals to hang out and post in forums, interact first hand with the public, and maybe lay some ground work for certain agendas and such. Hell, it would be a great way to get a feel for reactions to proposed plans and ideas that may be on the drawing board.

    .....all writers writing bad things about Floyd are all paid off.

    That's what the TS is trying to insinuate.

    Koncz is more of Arum's pet than an advisor to Pac.
    More like

    Buboy
    Freddy


    Ariza










    The Devil

    Koncz

    If someone claims he is more knowledgable, it is always safe to assume he is a *****.

    No other boxing fan consistently claim they know more than anybody.

    Just look at the thread - How can Pac survive for 12 rounds against Gayweather.

    I highly suspect Gayweather is paying some of these *****s. The level of dumbness and idiocy is at par with the one paying them.
