He talked to his hometown paper. (Guess this contradicts reports he left on Saturday or Sunday unless he flew around the world a few times.) http://www.tuscaloosanews.com/article/20160516/NEWS/160519797?tc=cr
He had two or three guys telling him to go back home. Deontay isn't as much as a coward as people think, but the people closest to him are protecting their gravy train as they see weaknesses. There is no doubt.
He went home because there is no fight. He's footing the bill for his entire training camp in England. Hasn't been paid a cent. Should he just rent an apartment or house and hang around there?
He did his part. He put in the time and spent the money for training camp, travel, lodging, sparring partners, etc. He's due compensation.
I don't think he has a legal claim to that. But he may possibly have a legal claim on compensation for the things Saintpat listed. But WTF do I know? :smoke
