Looks like Ellerbe about to be gone at TMT... watch Schaeffer come in

[Mayabang]

It was odd that Floyd won the first Maidana fight with only one belt on the line and now he's rematching with FOUR belts and titles on the line?! Doesn't make sense.

IMO they're trying to screw Floyd. Alot of guys here likes to talk about Floyd is the one screwing Ellerbe, but what if it's the other way around?

[Free Booty Dew!]

I wonder who's the most qualified floyd slurper to replace ellerbe on here...hmmmn

Larryx admitted he likes men booty and does coke, might bond well with jr &sr but has the temperament of kid like floyd,so they'll clash..

Yesir dont know how to count so floyds bank account would be a mess, he's out

Horus has as much bussiness sense as a stick of butter, might buy ****load of boats and sell it in west ******ia, ruined investment for sure..plus hes MIA..

Coachwebb like most of em is still on his nursery rhymes phase, obviously cant teach floyd how to read the harrypotter any better

Bigdunn is the winner what he lacks in other departments, he makes up with hard **** & lubrication..i mean hard work and dedication ..thats 24/7 for floyd right there

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

Ellerbe can have a job rubbing my **** any day.

[Porter's Dad]

Honestly, I know Ellerbe was basically a glorified personal assistant but Floyd getting rid of him is shocking to me

I'm hoping it's a sign of him finally maturing and shedding the entourage and leeches (though I always felt Ellerbe was unstintingly loyal to Floyd).

Crazy.

Title: The Perfect Plan that turns around Miguel Cotto
By Rey Caban (Sport Writer)

Hello sports fan, first of all the boxing fans, I am writing this article to show you how all this movements about the “Cinco de Mayo” date was a plan already on the making. I write this article in Spanish, so I am translating it in the best way I can, but I know you will understand.

All this started when Oscar De La Hoya meet Bob Arum, they was figuring out “how” to take back the Mexican date, and force Mayweather to fight Pacquiao. The friend of Mayweather on the B side of him (Floyd), Richard Schaefer know the situation, he also know as a friend or to have a great relationship with Floyd, that after his career ends, he will go to strat full time on Mayweather Promotions.

So Richard knowing this dirty move just quit from G.B.P knowing that Mayweather will have to build his company, and as his friend he will be the one that all will look as the main traitor or the main person doing the dirty move for that date. So he quit, and have the door open to be on the A side working toe to toe with Floyd building Mayweather Promotions soner than later.

So Miguel Cotto as a :Free Agent” that goes on a fight to fight basis with Top Rank, signed with Freddie Roach, that will put a rematch with Manny in a 0% to happen. Then if you see boxing you know now the top 4 boxers that make good to average numbers in this line are 1. Mayweather, 2. Pacquiao, 3. Cotto, 4. Canelo.

If you see that Canelo, Pacquiao works for Golden Boy and Top Rank, Cotto as a Free Agent works also with Top Rank his fights, that leave Floyd alone in the dark. Then After Cotto signed with Roach, they do a move that was key to this plan, or they need to think about other boxer. Cotto do his best fight with Roach, defeating a Middleweight by KO, and taking a title, that made him a historic boxer in Puerto Rico, also the world, that he is the only with 4 title in 4 division.

That move made Cotto back on the money, because people the more than the less want him with Canelo or Mayweather, and a ferw ones with GGG. He is on his best moment now, all the people minds on him was his last fight, so after Mayweather wining on Sep 13 the rematch, Many calling him out, Bob, and now Golden Boy forcing that date to push a Canelo-Cotto fight, put Mayweather on a position to fight one of the best 3 PPV guys, Pacquiao (the most and bigger one), Remtach with Canelo or Cotto, and I don’t see Canelo again on May.

So the winner on all of this is Cotto, because the hype still, he don’t do the December fight because he knows about this move and with a fight on dec with a c fighter will put him on HBO regular and if he goes PPV the numbers will drop badly.

Doing this Cotto just as Freddie what Floyd will do, If Floyd fight Manny or Cotto, BUT one of that two guys will be his man in the ring on May or he need to compete against a Canelo-Cotto fight on Mexican date that will kill any other Floyd fight.

This move just help Cotto, because Cotto will fight Canelo or Mayweather both huge PPV and Huge $$ for him, the only way is Mayweather go with Manny that weekend and then after we see Cotto Canelo.

Bet my words, Mayweather will be with Pacman or Cotto on May, that’s why Cotto don’t fight on Dec, to rest and have a very strong training camp to fight Canelo or Mayweather.

As others have mentioned, it's all Haymon's doings. He wants Schaefer to be the CEO of the company, he knows Ellerbe isn't as business savvy as Schaefer. Ellerbe is the current CEO....you can put two and two together.

Stopped right there

[Southpawology]

Buboy will take mannys chest and ellerbe will have the tall task of massaging mannys massive calf muscles

[BKM-2010]

I may be wrong but it sounds like he MIGHT get rid of him but a decision has not been made yet.

[radioraheem]

Notice how "Al" isn't going anywhere. It's "Al" pulling the strings. I doubt Mayweather made this decision; even the reasons in the article sound lame.

I think the belt's situation was real though. When a reporter brought it up to Floyd, Floyd was genuinely surprised. He was like NO, not all 4 belts are on the line. Then Ellerbe interjected and said yes that's correct, and told Floyd that they discussed this already. And Floyd didn't reply, and just told one of the reporters that he had no idea.

Floyd wanted to change the belts situation last minute, but was unable to because it was too late.
