Ellie Seckbach banned from both gyms

elie sechback stirred up the pot and generated more potential PPV buys, he should get at least a small piece of the action :D

good, serves that puto right for being so disrespectful to garcia and tony. Yeah because he was the 1 making fun of roach. Are you dudes serious with this bullsh1t.

Seckbach's decision to share this video interfered with what they were working on in their promotions. Maybe it helped buys but even gifs dont play down how ****ing uncomfortable and unnatural it was. 24/7 is a privilege. Can other upstarts like Rios say they got the same kind of hbo airtime so far? Margarito's part honestly made me question his sexuality and it was embarrassing. His 24/7 plot they paid enough to portray was supposed to be about redemption but that showing ****ed with his many attempts at purity, and some casual fans who kept up with this fight will have found it a turnoff because his edge isnt the same now. Margfag meets Old Sparky soon.

Lol...............

wtf is up with that? the guy reports and gets up close with almost every boxer/trainer or promoter and interviews them which are good....might not agree all the time with the stuff which comes out of his mouth but this is absolute f*ckin bull sh*t... i mean this guy ellie seckbach always dedicates himself and works hard in getting interviews and is good for bringing boxing fans up to date with what is happening face to face with the very boxers / promoters and trainers themselves who can confirm upcoming fights / venues / tournaments etc and now HBO do this?? i dont see them busting their arse and putting in the effort to seek out whats the latest in boxing :nonono:....what are they going to do now for interviews aside from HBO??? are they gonna use twitter while there at it? Yes but the reality is, this guy over stepped his boundary and could have caused a distraction to either camp. It's one thing to report, it's another to over step your welcome. Garcia invited him to his house and everything and now he caused this by over filming and getting to comfortable with the people there.

that sucks..... i really like his vids from the Marg camp. Even more than fake ass 24/7 No doubt. Hbo knows this too so they're crushing the competition.

did sombody put a gun to elie's head and tell him to upload that video and ruin the team's image who welcomed him into their gym and family? give him a warning then....a ban is pathetic

I think it may be a permanent banned. Both camps are not in California anymore since the fight's in two days. How else would Elie cover them if not after the fight?

IP Banned... Damn lol

To me it seems like Ellie is just doing what he does. He gets footage sand posts it. Marg claims that the video was edited to make him look like a dick. I don't know if Ellie would do something like that. I would like to think he has better morals than that but I don't know him.

I always thought ellie looked like a poser, with all his baggy clothes and big cap trying to fit in

Poor Ellie, he should start wearing a disguise to back in.

hbo is tired of being shown up by one guy with a camera.... lame asses Co Sign... When the f*ck do HBO ever keep fans updated with up coming fights / deals / venues or ever interview promoters/fighters/fans or trainers or live press conferences? i mean seriously the only ever time HBO ever do interview them guys is on their 24/7 episodes or trainer back grounds aside from that they can never gut up from their fat arses and hire someone to do so...so instead they have a hard working dedicated man banned for doing his job which he put all the dedication and hard work in where as in reality they should be doing that themselves as well :banghead:

Probably why he decided to post that Roach Park's mock video, stir some s hit up in spite of being banned from both gyms now. Can't say I'll miss the guy, some of his videos were decent though. He's still a chump.

Seckbach, who bills himself as the “embedded correspondent,” had been barred from Garcia’s gym by HBO’s Mark Taffet. HBO’s contract with promoters when doing a “24/7” series does not permit media while it is filming, except during open-media events such as news conferences. Taffet said Seckbach was constantly in the gym and was getting in the way of the “24/7” crew, who complained to him that they couldn’t do their work with Seckbach in the way. Taffet phoned Top Rank public relations director Lee Samuels, who had Seckbach banned from the gym. Roach personally banned Seckbach from his Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles. This is from Kevin Iole's column I'm a geek fanboy who blew the doors off of Margarito's camp by accident.. RePORTing!

hbo is tired of being shown up by one guy with a camera.... lame asses

hype is hype, but that video of Roach went too far, he chose to post it after filming it, i think it serves Seckbach well. be a professional, don't do stuff like that. anyway, now HBO 24/7 is doing the hype, they're known for doing a good job.

Elie should just have given the video to HBO..

Looks like he'll be annoying Goosen some more lol

i see what you're saying but this is because of the whole freddie roach parkinson's video debacle. did ellie put a gun to marg and rios head and tell him to do that sh*t? no he did not....wtf is up with HBO?
