It doesnt matter where he get his sources, the point is he didnt do his homework. In the end its up to his boss to decide whether he should keep his job. Theres nothing wrong to question a person (pacquiao) but this just steps out of line. Its reckless reporting IMO


    Its one of these "he says she says" bullshiet for small piece of limelight and $$$. Sad to say but this is what the media does nowadays. If it doesnt sell and create controversy then it is shiet to them.
    Maybe you can start a petition to get him fired? That should work.

        signing stories or rumors are not really a problem as they are just that ...signing

        the problem when the stories or rumors accuses someone of wrong doing then just disappears without any erratum or conclusion ...

          Yeah

          Where is it? if it really exists the its his "Journalistic' duty to reveal it



          @Ryan

          Atlas and Tim Smith made a blunder. Im sure these two would make more mileage if they have something to reveal.



          I mean. Email? You can easily track where a certain email came from and you can easily create an email account named TeamPacquiao_01@yahoo.com.

            LOL

            his examples are X Player and Y Team. This dude Tim Smith wrote something about a fighter named Manny Pacquiao.

              If Tim Smith's article about Manny was false or misleading then he could get sued for libel...funny thing is,he was never sued.By the way,what happened to Mayweather/Manny's lawsuit?

                  If they made a blunder,they would be asked to apologize to those that they mislead.I doubt Tim Smith or Teddy Atlas would give away their source,because more than likely they (Atlas and Smith) would want more info in the future and want to remain anonymous.

                  I wonder why these two haven't been legally threatened if they were voicing falsehoods (especially since these two people work for influential media that millions of people read/view)...unless they know something more than some of you fans know ( and are not even in the same boxing circles that Atlas or Smith are) ...which is quite likely.

                    what I like to know if Tim made any comment on this while face to face with PAC or just totally avoided the topic, any case I am waiting for the spread the Tim will do as Ryan mentioned...

                      Atlas and Smith will milk it to the max until the **** gave out. If there are really truth to these rumors, these 2 should have pursued their allegations until the end, I wonder what's holding them back? Is it because it was a false alarm? Teddy Atlas ran with it for a while like it was the ****, but he hasn't mentioned anything related to that email in a while...
