Clottey's trainer still not in the U.S. but he remains confident...

what a feck up.

 

dumbass should have renewed his visa. those things are a ***** to fill out in the first place.

 

Sould have renewed his visa? That is exactly what he was trying to do and was blatantly denied. Thats uncle Sam for you. If this was a U.S boxer, it would be labelled all kind of names, including enemies of the people and all that. Shame.

 

this is a ****ing embarassment for the US.

This is no better than the Arab countries who wouldn't allow Israeli tennis players to get a visa for the tournaments. And even the Arab Emirates changed their stance now.

****, this is some backwards ass ****.

 

I hope you're not preparing an excuse NBA. :yep

 

The chips are stacked against him! I hope he can come through and put in a good showing if he were to win, man that would be incredible!

 

It really does just take a phone call.

Its sad that Arum would do this to HIS fighter.
If i was Clottey i would leave Arum after this fight. Its obvious he doesnt want Clottey to succeed and isnt even willing to help him out in his biggest fight.

 

One word. Arum.

 

Sorry to drift off the subject - But does anyone know who Clottey's sparring partners are?

 

the guys on this thread who are complaining about it probably don't even have a US passport.

I'm telling you, you need at least 8 to 12 months advance to clear this up.

 

Its ****ing ******ed that any country wouldn't allow athletes and their coaches into their country over petty political bull****.

Sports and politics don't mix. Why the **** does it take 8 to 12 months to get a visa? That's ****ing ******ed. Get with the program everything is computerized it should take no more than a couple of days. 2 weeks at the most.

 

i'm wondering if clottey will make the weight. he's huge at the weight as it is, and now with no trainer, it could be even harder to boil down.
