    Pretty sure its just a matter of schedules. Rios isn't training in the afternoon when Elie is there.

        I wish he'd visit other gyms more often too. He's starting to leech off of Robert Garcia for material too much.

        Sometimes Elie's alright. He throws those ****** questions in there because he thinks he has to be entertaining, but he doesn't need them really. Most people tune in to hear the boxers talk or see them train. He's good at getting interviews with them. It's when I hear Elie give his own opinions too much that I tune out. I don't want to hear from someone that doesn't know boxing.

        And then bringing up the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight in every interview, just so he can put those names on the title and get more views... it gets old quick.

          Rios knows hes coming off a poor performance vs abril and he knows he has a huge test in front of him with alvarado, He probably just wants to focus 100% and not be distracted. This is a good thing.

            Elie is hilarious. I've said it before, but it never gets old hearing him call certain fighters a "boxing legend" or a "boxing star."

              Apparently Brandon Rios hired a Publicist now, just like with Freddie Roach and Elie, Roach hired a publicist and an assistant who bans people or has to approve who he can speak to.

              A publicist probably doesn't want Brandon talking to Elie and wants to improve Brandon's image.

              I wouldn't be shocked if Elie gets banned from Garcia's gym during Rios training time and can only stop by when Rios isn't there.

              Remember it was Elie who instigated the whole controversial video of Brandon and Margarito making fun of Roach.

                Toney lost it through his own lack of common sense.

                Regarding Sechbach, lately he spends too much time interviewing people most have never heard of.

                  I unsubbed ESNEWS a while ago. Ellie's ****** questions(that I swear he gets off this site) and his constant butting in the conversations was getting annoying. Plus he would always cut the clips at the peak of interest.

                    Sekbach is a propaganda machine and instigator, the guy is cold blooded and not loyal to anyone, he loves to stir up controversy to hopefully get traffic to his page, and since Freddie Roach banned him after that video of Margarito and Rios, Elie has been talking **** on Freddie as a trainer. Elie couldn't even apologize instead he hid behind being a journalist, Elie doesn't even do homework on boxing, the guy asks the same pacquiao mayweather question over and over.

                    Elie keeps accusing Boxing scene and HBO of stealing his stories.

                      Elie wasn't invited to Brandon's Open House/Fan Appreciation this weekend...So it's more than just schedules..
