Tom Loeffler was not thrilled to read Richard Schaefer's comments in BoxingScene.com's Insider Notebook this week.

It's sad that a lot of times the fights that the public mostly crave, ask for, and really want are the ones that end up not being made at all, and it's not because the fighters are scared or because they don't want to face each other. But because the promoters, networks, and people behind the scenes can't put their differences aside and just meet in the middle to give the people what we really want and desserve.

Wow, Schaefer needs to control his emotions. Very female like.

GGG would face plant your boy, Quillen.

Richard is burning all the promotional bridges.

Schaefer is the spitting image of a young Bob Arum.

Schaefer is burning a lot of bridges. he just better hope Steven Espinoza doesn't get fired at Showtime or he's done.

[Russian Crushin]

Schaffer seems very jealous of HBO getting a possible star in Golovkin getting big ratings and Quillin is still fighting undercards against opponents on the level of Adama

Larry Merchant was right... the one sided fights have to stop. This includes Floyds!
