UPDATE: The New York commission released a statement to Yahoo Sports condemning Angel Garcia’s words.
“The New York State Athletic Commission does not in any way condone or excuse Mr. Garcia’s words and actions,” it read. “Angel Garcia is not a licensee of the commission and therefore is not subject to its jurisdiction at this time. In the event Mr. Garcia pursues a license with the state athletic commission, this incident and all relevant information will be reviewed and this matter would be revisited in that context.”

Sounds like the NYSAC will be taking Angel's behavior into consideration when he applies to work the corner on March 4th.
Also, which just puts the nail in the coffin..
Danny Garcia’s mother approached the stage as people tried to restrain Angel Garcia and said to Thurman, “You need to sit your b***h ass down or get beat the f**k up.”
Thurman looked at her and said, “Yap, yap, yap, yap,” upon which she responded, “Shut the f**k up.”

"DiBella later told ESPN.com that he spoke to Al Haymon, manager of Garcia and Thurman, about the matter and they agreed that nobody from either of the fighters' teams will be allowed on the dais at the final news conference during fight week."
"Angel Garcia won't have the opportunity to do that again," DiBella said. "He won't have a microphone, nor should he after what he did."
Unfortunately, Thurman's trainer won't be allowed at the presser either. Not fair and doesn't make sense being that he isn't an emotionally unstable roller-coaster, sweaty mood swinging, illiterate pill popping immature degenerate like Angel.

Haymon is a POS for banning anyone. It's a free country
they are trying to conduct business, if a jackass hurts that business by ruining its reputation the people in charge get rid of said jackass.
the country being free has nothing to do with it. if you are running a store for instance and some moron ran around yelling "n/gger" to people you would have to get rid of him. this is no different.
i wasnt buying the fight to begin with, but if i was i would have changed my mind over this, not wanting to give my money to scumbags like the garcias. if others who were going to buy the fight feel the same way that is hurting dibella and haymon pockets.

However his show isn't free. It cost money and haymon not about to lose it due to angel. Even though I like angel. But it's haymons show. I do agree a angel was doing too much though.

Angel still has his freedom of speech, just has to suffer the consequences for what he says. Interesting that you only blame Haymon for the aftermath even though Angel made his own bed.......

People really got the whole "free speech" and "free country" thing all wrong. Some of y'all think it means you can say whatever you want, whenever y'all want.
Sure you can say whatever you want at your own home, or out on the damn streets, but if you think it applies to EVERYWHERE then you'd be sadly mistaken.
Haymon is paying that motherf**ker. Which makes him his boss. You think you can just walk into your average workplace talking like Angel Garcia? You'd be fired and escorted out of the damn building by security.
dibella needs to worry about dropping a few bucks on decent sound equipment, that sh1t was unbearable. Don't see why Thurman's team should be banned tho.
BJ, Understand & respect your views. But kids tend to listen, emulate, & look up to coaches & athletes more than a President especially younger teens...
They should just ban Angel and no one else. The guy is an arse wipe.
The stuff he says (when not crossing line) isn't even witty or funny either. Just cringeworthy.
Angel is the same guy who questioned why Thurman and Porter were fighting, suggesting that they can fight lesser opponents and can still make money. He's clearly mad that this fight between his son and Thurman is happening. He probably wants more money than was offered.
He's mad because he knows, inside his heart, that Thurman will be the winner.

It will be quite funny, if he raids the press conference......
I wonder if he will be in attendance outside the press conference.
Nevertheless, i believe this was the right decision. I think using the N-word during a professional sports press conference is retarded, its retarded using it general! and is something that needs to be brain washed out of the black and Latino public.
Its not particular offensive just retarded.
