    PacMan should boycott Top Rank and hire Schaefer to handle his business. Worked out great for Floyd, he's filthy rich and doesn't depend on political bull****. Company men must rely on company decisions, the Marquez ones favored Pac, this one favored Bradley.

    That is true... Arum has everything covered. Insane that when Donaire wanted to sign out because of breach of contract (TR didn't bring major fights promised in contract) he couldn't and almost got his career ****ed. Arum is now in in Don King's shoes, you're playing with fire if you sign with him.

    I think I will go a step further than just boycotting Top Rank. I think I will even boycott boxing. That's right! The sport that I have loved since I was literally 3 years old. And no, it's not because I am a "*******" or whatever, so please haters, go perform autofellatio in another thread. The reason I will boycott boxing as a whole is because this is just the most recent of several horrible decisions. Williams-Lara, Helenius-Chisora, Rios-Abril and now this! Those were all highway robberies. Pacquiao-Marquez III was a close fight no matter who you had winning, so even if you disagree with the decision, there was no robbery there.

    Imagine if Mayweather lost the decision to Cotto. I had Floyd winning that fight by a lesser margin than I had Pacquiao winning this one. Wouldn't everyone in boxng come together to protest such a decision? I would. The same way I am protesting this one. Not that our protests mean anything, but still, we are fans of this great sport and hate to see such miscarriages of justice.

    Well, I would like to take this time to say it has been great conversing and debating with all of you here at East Side Boxing. It honestly saddens me to leave, but maybe now I can get more accomplished in my personal life. I am a grown man, a father of two. I have personal career goals that I have procrastinated getting done for some time. This will be a good opportunity
    for me to reduce distractions and actually get some things accomplished that will benefit my family and me in the future. It really has been great meeting everyone. Best wishes to all.
    Sincerely,
    Isa Abdullah Beamon

    I think it would be awesome if you would boycott posting and/or breathing, whichever you prefer.
