    The last OFFICAL report was from Leonard Ellerbe stating the Negotiations are going GREAT.

    I think the hold up is the date actually.

Now Mosley is an in house fighter. To think that Shane and Schafer did not know that Berto was pullion out before it became official is insane...
        Cynicism slayed the cat.

Do you think Schafer found out when we found out? Is a simple question bro, not once did I mentioned money if I did show me? I said that I know is crazy to think this but could of the people who was involved in it could of known about Berto pulling out for the right reason before we knew?
            i was implying it or better yet asking i think it was something they might of known the night before the announcement but it just fell onto their laps due to bad circumstances....i hope is not off i love good boxing and i think it could make both some money it has the potential to be as big as pac vs may....i know alot people that want to see it....even you would watch it

              Berto ws bought out.

              BUT.......

              He was going to exercise his rescheduling clause in his contract and juts move the fight with Shane later.

              Haymon and Floyd paid Berto money to step aside all together. Works ggod for berto he got paid and he has time to get his mind off boxing for a sec.

                Why are people allowed to post these kind of articles? They only serve to propagate more BS which there is already an ample ammount of in boxing.

                That **** should go straight to the trash heap instead of taking up valuable memory and bandwidth.

                  Boxing can be foul like that. How soon did Williams find out about Pavlik pulling out before the public? Couple hours maybe? They were going to announce an opponent thats why i doubt it was shane. If they knew it was Shane they could only announce negotiations.

                    Some guys don't realize that BLOGS can be written by anyone, anytime, without any regard to reality or facts - They don't require verified sources or any official investigations that would make them credible.

                    Any moron can write a boxing blog ..... Hell, I even wrote two blogs and I'm an Engineer.

                      Of course I would watch it, I want to watch it, and for the record what the examiner published is something I don't believe... but will I be surprised if it does not happen? No I will not... I hope it happens, I wanted to happen but it wouldn't shock me if it didn't and I will not be disappointed... because, honestly I don't have my hopes up but If it did I would watch and be thrilled about it... I wanted to happen and I think it has to happen. I don't see where Floyd could go if he doesn't fight Shane... so I don't see how this fight can not happen... and fuck what the examiner says they are not reliable, So I am not taking what they say seriously but again I will not be surprised if it didn't happen... And, I don't see how somebody would be shocked...
