Didn't Ellerbe say a few months ago Floyd was going to knock off all the top welters one by one? If Ross was not talking to Floyd's people than why did they wait until now to contradict Arum's statement? If there were no negotiations going on and no communication between Ross and Floyd's people wouldn't Floyd's side say something about it to contradict De La Hoya saying the fight is very very close, and Arum as well. The whole Floyd is deciding to take time off is absurd on its face. Why were we all talking about this for so long then? What was up with the drug testing stuff? This **** is getting weirder and weirder. I think Ellerbe, Jeff and Sr are all on a campaign to save Floyd's reputation but it won't work. Not this time. He is going to take some time off? And yeah, why was Shchaefer talking about the gag order? Ellerbe didn't think this out very well.
I said a long time ago that Void would never fight Pac. Void, Sr. said that he did not want Void, Jr. to fight Pac. He said that right after Pac stopped Cotto.
"Want my son to fight someone with some damn drugs in them?" "Yeah he scared he scared." "You damn right he scared, better be scared of someone with some damn drugs in him" . "Yeah he says he will do drug tests, but he don't deserve equal money". --Floyd Mayweather Sr. 7/19/2010
Don would have had the shotgun out, dragged them into a room and made em sign the ****ing contract! I'm bored of this now, Pacquiao just needs to go find a new opponent and stop wasting his time with this ****.
It's worrying that this has reached a point that people are nostalgic for the dominance of Don King, and I'm one of them.
There is one underlying fact in all of this!! Some ***** is away on holiday for his biggest payday. And couldn't sign the contract..
The **** is this bull****, boxing is becoming a joke.. They talkin about how there are no deals whatsoever.. The so called deadline was all over the freakin news and they kept quiet about it? They let it go on for this long? Who are they trying to fool, the fans that give their payday? Whatever the case may be.. Arum is lying .. Ellerbe is lying.. Now that everything is out in the open, make the ****in fight happen!
You couldn't make a bigger balls up of a fight if you tried, the way this is unfolding is unbelievable.
