Arum hasn't spoken to Clottey or his manager. And Clottey didn't even get paid step aside money. I knew Arum was just using the mando story as a bull**** excuse.
Let's not jump the gun. We'll see how Clottey's career develops in the rest of 2008, and what Arum provides for him. For now, it DOES look like a shady move by the Bobfather though.
Such a surprise Arum would pass over a guy like Clottey for his pet project Antonio Margarito. I can't believe he'd so such a thing....where the hell is the rolling eyes thing.
