That's what happens whe simple minded fighters get caught in the "Golden" clutches of Unscrupulous promoters' enticements. Oscar has a bad reputation for this and that's how the original dispute with Manny P. occurred, the very same way.
Oscar thought he was simple, ambushed him at the airport with a limousine, after an exhausting 16 hour flight, shlepped him to a restaurant, pressed on him a dinner he didn't want, aas well as a suitcased $250,000 in $20 bills, kept him there for literally hours when he was drooping with fatigue, urging him to sign. Manny P. too polite to tell him to go to hell, consulted with his lawyer who was also present, and, as he said the next day, just to get away from him, he signed, knowing it was not legal, nor enforceable.
You see, Top Rank still had Manny P. under contract, and, as well, a clause forbidding any discussion with any other promoter suring the term of the Top Rank contract.
Oscar dinn't know this, and went to court, eventually to arbitration, and got a well deserved kick in the teeth.
In Donaire's case, the medical reasons for extension were 2 6 month suspensions by the Commission because of injuries, and his contract stipulated that this time would be added to the original contract. His present contract is STILL in force, not slated to run out until June 25th 2011, that is in nearly 3 months time. So we can add an extra year LEGALLY, to this date.
On top of this, the contract ALSO has a provision giving Top Rank the option of extending the present contract for 1 calendar year. So my mathematical senses, tll me that Donaire's legal contract does not run out until late 2013.
Which is what Arum has been saying ALL THE TIME. Raider Oscar will be foiled again it seems.
So he didn't want the dinner??? That explains everything!!!!!! We need to hire you to investigate all of boxing's sticky situations. You must have sat through the entire meeting to know all of this. Shut up dude! You're not a boxing fan, your a Pacquiao groupie! LOL
