I hear ya Divac... I wouldn't go as far as investigating and suspending, but Cintron definitely has some bull**** always surrounding his fights. And I hate for Paul to have his career tied up with some potential dumb **** that might happen.
Have a drink with me. It'll change again. Hey man, even writers get pissed off sometimes. I didn't even bother reading that response from loadgloves. Not need to. Still haven't read it now that you posted it. I love talking fights. If I can drop info that won't **** me up or stuff I am working on, I will. But judging me from a show I do or when I get angry in a message board and using that as some sort of gauge on how I am as a person, well, to each his own but it's a very small picture of who i am. I won't lie. This job came with a set of problems I never envisioned. Dealing with guys like load gloves, or anyone in that particular forum was not what i expected. It seems no matter what I say in there, I always come up on the bad end. There is this idea that I am some ******* who thinks he's famous or that I think I am all that. Dude, I'm just trying to survive in the big city like everyone else. I don't drive a fancy car. I don't make a ton of money doing this. In fact, I'd venture I have spent more than I have made. So yeah, I get a lil pissed off when guys come at me personally rather than keep it to the work which I admit can be flawed (whose isn't?). That poster is doing exactly what I said : throwing rocks at a guy known for what he does and then laughing to his buddies about it. That's forum culture. I get it. I came from it. To me, the more I stay away from negative **** like that, the more time I have and less I get down in the mud. Seriously. Get to know me first. Bum a smoke and talk to me or have a beer and do the same. In here is not exactly the best way to know someone.
I agree the media ran with Richardson quotes like "It fell out on the floor" which didn't happen and "hard as a rock" which I didn't feel at all. I was talking with Richardson off record after the L.A. presser for Mosley/May and he brought that up again. I told him I felt one insert (one was at the DOJ for testing) and that it wasn't hard. He got kind of quiet and then said it must be the other one. I emailed Keith Kizer yesterday to ask him about the wraps. One of the trainers had a fight last night but I will hook up with him on Monday and see if he can be more specific. Cool?
