    You asked what the difference was. I explained it to you. ESPN is footing the bill for loma Haney. It is an expensive fight for free tv. They do not want to compete against March madness. While the fury fight may be shown on espn, espn is not paying much for it, as the money is coming from the Middle East. That is the difference between the two. Go on thinking it is because arum doesn’t like black people though.
    You got your mind so twisted around racial thinking and concepts. I wasn't implying that Arum doesn't like black people, especially since he's promoted a ton of former and present champions that I like. I'm implying that Loma is a handheld fighter that has received preferential treatment irregardless of anything racial. He's been given championship fights from the day he stepped in, and even after losing, they kept him on P4p lists with only a handful of fights. I could go on and on, but it doesn't matter what I actually think, because you will create a racist image or divide in your mind, and that's your truth.

      he's crying about not getting a proper camp for May Ramadan ends april 21st 2023.

      Well done on proving me right and being disingenuous at the same time you absolute clown leaving the start of Ramadan off intentionally.

      And FYI, I done the same thing with Usyk when he tried to claim he observes fasting for Lent before you try to make it racial.

        It always lasts a month, easy to count back. I was actually agreeing with you, just fleshing it out a bit. I guess you're still disgruntled about our earlier exchange.

        I don't think he's "crying" though, just saying he wants the fight before then. Sooner the better I say and I'm sure Loma agrees.

          Nope didn't even know we "interacted" before, I certainly wouldn't care enough to bring it into another conversation.

            He didn't need the same length in camps because he wasn't struggling to make weight then, he 24, his body is maturing, and this is his last fight at 135. Also, he wasn't fighting someone he's been calling out forever, in Loma, and he wasn't defending the undisputed championship, so of course, he wants to have a perfect training camp for this fight.

              Boro won't listen to that logic. He's already invested in the idea a guy who's been abroad twice in his last two fights to contest an undisputed championship is a "*****" rather than a human being with legitimate needs and concerns. Haney is the kind of guy boxing should be celebrating and until this fight is officially off then I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

                  He’s gotta make weight for a fight in may but will be fasting in April. Again, where is the problem? He’s gotta cut a lot of weight anyway, kinda has been for a while. So he’s concerned about melting down while fasting? How tf does that work?

                      It was actually on Boxing Scene on November 16. Arum didn't say that Usyk observes Ramadan though, I got that confused. He said that they should be able to fight before Ramadan, because of the fight being held in the Middle East.
