Leon compare Simms is better than Kessler/AA

[Queen_Leia]

Leon from a site that talks boing stated below that Green fought the better opponent in Simms and that why Green didn't look that hot. He said that JT and Dirrell would have had a hard time with Simms..see below.

Dan and I would have no issue if he would remember to fact check before he writes lies about me or my clients. For those of us who make a full time living off the sport, the media has the power to take food from the mouth of you and your family. I don't recall anybody else besides me going off on Decrepid Dan. Green looking bad against Simms is his opinion and that's fine with me. Green was supposed to fight a white Russian with the head movement or lack thereof of Froch and Abraham, and instead face Tarvis Simms, who presented him with more angles and movement in one round than Dirrell and Taylor had to deal with in their 24 combined rounds. Don't you guys SEE boxing? Before he writes lies like my imaginary advice to turn down Pavlik for $450,000 or Allan Green opting for Oganov on October 2 instead of Bika on the Mayweather undercard, he should attempt to find out the "why" from both sides before he allows his hatred/jealousy of me get the best of him.


Is he serious?

of course he is but lets take into account Green is his fighter so it's not like he is going to take a critical look at him on his site.

gone are the days where you could take his site serious simply because he is now an advisor to many of the fighters he covers.

so as long as you understand that you will be fine in reading his site

I didnt see Kessler's named mentioned anywhere in there.

Also, he's not trying to say that Simms is better than Abraham or Froch, just that he offered more head (and foot) movement than either fighter, which is actually true.

He also has a point regarding Rafael and the Pavlik/Green thing. Rafael, who's never hesitated to throw Arum under the bus, opted to take his word at face value regarding that scenario.

agreed on the first part. everyone knows that none of his fighters will be viewed objectively on that site, not by him or anyone on his staff.

I don't know what his beef is with Dirrell, though. I mean, he advises Derrick Gainer for Christ sakes. At least Dirrell had a method to his madness that was his makeshift track meet.

LOL @ his mailbag being 90% talking about Green

amazing how his biggest fighter fights in the same division as the biggest thing in boxing for quite some time.....and he still couldn't get Mr One Punch Power into it.

He acts like Green is indestructible or something...Is Leon bias?
