[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BoxingScene.com has received a copy of federal court order from the Central District of California, and Judge Margaret M. Morrow voided James Kirkland's promotional agreement, and his extension, with Golden Boy Promotions.

On August 16, 2012, Kirkland commenced this action against Golden Boy, claiming his contract was illegal. Golden Boy Promotions counter-sued for breach of contract. On February 5, 2013, Kirkland filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings.

The judge agreed with Kirkland's papers, partially granting his attorney's motion for Summary Judgement. Kirkland is represented by Sekou Gary. [Click Here To Read More]

win or lose legally, 2 me his career is behind him...he'll have the punch 2 get him bouts but I believe w/his character shortcomings, lack of desire, he never comes close 2 a belt...

50 cent has a new boxer

[Los Zetas]

[The Big Dunn]

why would he leave GBP? I guess he'll be fodder for GGG and/or Chavez. but why would eithr network want him? he isn't exactly reliable.

I wonder if this will start a trend? I mean if Kirkland could find a loophole, others may also. There is some weird stuff going on at GBP, it is starting to become a hype circus over there. Showtime putting on some show like every card is a giant event etc.

We now have Bika as a champion calling out Ward. Garcia acting like he is Floyd, Buddy Deals with USADA etc.
