This is a brilliant chess move by Sergio for the bigger payout. If Floyds mamba avoids the Pacmans dragon, Floyds legacy move will be for the MW 6th crown. Sergio is waiting and maybe worth waiting a little longer after the Pacmans next 8th move. If the two kings win respectively they are in for another stalemate.
Good post, points well taken. I may be off the subject but I’ll just throw some stones intended for those of us non-writers. Like what they say ‘not all can be writers’. This is boxing forum so let’s continue the fun…write your opinion somebody will always disagree anyway…

We can voice out everything we got still we will end where we started from. This is a brutal sport still both fighters has to agree to fight. Assuming Tony will get his licensed to box, he can declare war in any manner he wish and that is that. No one can force Miguel to sign the dotted line. A fight between the two will certainly generate tons of money as both have fans but Miguel has the brighter options which are equally rewarding while Tony has few. Yes, Tony can rematch Mosley, Martinez, Cintron, and William but these are financial weaker this time around. Let this be a lesson to all of us. Don’t try to cheat or you’ll be Tony.

Oxnard is a place sandwiched by 2 naval base, a beach, some malls, and the rest are strawberry fields. It’s easy to get bored. Like any other kids Fernando surrounds himself with youngster that enjoys staying late and at one time same friends drove north to Santa Barbara to beat up another young punk. This occurred while he was a champ. This type of association could indicate maturity and poor dedication to the rigors of boxing. His early performance aspiring for the olympics showed an average talent that requires more molding. True that he went up high becoming a champ but it did not last long. More dedication and discipline could have made a difference. This was pointed out earlier.
Can Roach & Ariza really change any boxer… yes and no! as with previous comments, some of the boxers are champ material to begin with. The combo of training and nourishment makes a difference. Ariza, to his credit is a highly educated person who choose to utilize his acquired skills in boxing. From what was read, the so-called ‘shakes’ are tailored for each individual. To get in the wild card gym is that not easy. Promoters who invested on their potential assets are likely the ones calling Roach. An ordinary individual like me is never invited. I like the shakes though…
this incident was brought by Tony unto himself. we talked about vindication, redemption, exactment... but what if Miguel honestly believed he was unfairly treated. how can that be reconciled. In my opinion, Tony will get his license eventually but not too soon. In my line of work such a license will never be granted no matter how much money spent to lobby. right now the boxing commission is still in a difficult position to explain it's approval, if any.
not entirely related but it's about Bert nonetheless. years back i watched him saying that Tyson was so upset that he punched the wall, Mike's fist went through the wall in front of Holyfield face who was sitting on the other dressing room... Bert makes it so exciting but of course we need to put some grain of salt along with. gotta love the guy. Tell you what, i'll make this up. that same cigar and hat he has all the time, not only his trademark, i heard Fidel Castro gave it to him and wants to be burried with him.
Koncz is an adviser and gate keeper controlling the inflow of admirers. It’s a thankless job and one has to do. In a place like philippines everyone wants to get near to a famous person for many reason. No one likes to get turned away even for a photo ops or a brief courtesy with a champ. Salvador came from nowhere simply an action star on the verge of a declining career and wants to invigorate his image by being seen with a bigger star. Koncz as usual will limit access Salvador and got pissed.
