    Anyone catch Romes radio show today? He gave Pavlik props, basically saying he is the hier apparent to DLH. He also gave Fraud hell for his supposed retirement, saying he has unfinished business to take care of.

    I didnt get to hear the whole thing, can anyone else fill us in???

    Didn't hear it, but his statements sound about right.

    Can't really stand Rome, comes across as a punk.

    But atleast he's one of the few mainstreamers who give boxing some attention.

    So ya get the good with the bad.

    Rome is okay he knows a little about boxing and has had Floyd on his show many times. Hopkins used to go on there as well.

    The best part was when he played a clip of Fraud saying "I keeps a lear jet" - Rome responded, "How are you gonna keep that leer jet if you aint fighting?"

    Rome jumped the shark years ago. Didnt know he was still around.

    Does he still do those long pauses in between speech?

    What a stupid statement. Floyd made 50 million last year alone. Does Jim Rome know how much it cost to maintain a lear jet? Let alone know what one cost?


    Floyd could easily afford to keep a lear jet around for years to come.

    No I just realized what a dumb statement that is. And then I happen to see Skip Bayless on TV as I was typing it, so it made me even more furious.


    I hate Skip. And I praised Rome just before that post.

    Ram can't help himself now that PBF is retired, since he was hating on him 24/7. He hears Rome joking about PBF and goes crazy. :lol:

    exactly, I doubt Rome meant that he would have to literally sell the alleged lear jet next week. He was making a broader point. Some of these Fraud Groupies are way too sensative.
