Dela Hoya seeking possible lawsuit against Cotto

And they're all about paper work and shelling out money for testimony experts. Everyone wins! Except whoever loses.

This is a point I've been expressing for a long while myself. These organizations have a rich history in terms of corruption, and the WBC might well be at the top of the list. Even in the case of Golovkin, wasn't he originally promised a shot at the winner of Sergio-Cotto? And then Cotto was allowed a voluntary? And then he was allowed to side-step his mandatory for Canelo, until he stopped playing ball. The late Sulaiman was one of the richest and most powerful men in boxing for a long time, and his organization has always stood as a symbol of the corruption that persists in this sport (and in fairness to all playing "the game" today, boxing has been infested with corruption since its inception). And as I'm typing all of this, I'm thinking of the story Steward had articulated regarding Sulaiman and what it took for Emanuel to land a fight for what wound up becoming his first world champion, Hilmer Kenty.

It's all posturing between two sides in a power grab, which is typical of the boxing business in recent years.

Again, none of us here know any of the details, none of us have seen the contracts, and even if we did all see them, most of us wouldn't be able to make heads or tails of the legality of the tediously excessive nuanced language contained therein, most likely, in any case.

Great stuff Dubblechin. :thumbsup

I especially liked this gem: "They're both going to enter the ring carrying more belts than their entourages have arms"

I've already recorded one song for an episode, which may not be next one. And I have 2 more ideas with partial lyrics in mind. So after these next 3 songs get released, I'll re-evaluate my options.
