Comments Thread For: Jeff Mayweather: Leonard Ellerbe Dropped The Ball

[Elroy1]

BETWEEN THE LINES::

Obviously what's happened here is that Floyd and his family have realised Ellerbe has failed in his main mission, the reason he is appointed in the first place.

The main function of Ellerbe has always been one of propaganda, to take the heat off of Floyd for ducking PAcquaio and to put the heat back on Manny, any way possible.

Obviously he's failed in his mission, it's a completely busted issue now and no stories can salvage his image anymore. And so TMT have realised they may as well just do it themselves and save their pennies.

End of thread!

It's probable... Ellerbe basically digs his own grave when he talked about wanting to see the Pac fight and forgetting about past issues.

When it comes to Pacquiao, no amount of chest rubs will ever make Floyd change his mind..

At the end of the day, when it's all said and done, it just comes with the territory. He's not here to prove who's the best.

He may be coward, but he rich doe. He may not be able to read, but he smart doe.

TBE TBE TBE!...

I wholeheartedly agree of course

The only place Ellerbe dropped his balls was in Floyds mouth.

I can't wait until Ellerbe comes out slaying Floyd for this! I hope he exposes Floyd for the coward he really is.

ellerbe always looked clueless to me

Clueless and shady. Good move to get rid of him. Sometimes you just have to go by your gut feeling and cut people off from your life.

I just came across this on another forum..

"During a stay in Vegas me and my mate got a cab from the strip to the gym (less than 10 mins away in Chinatown).

The staff were again friendly and the gym was very busy but no one of note. They were happy for us to sit,take photos and watch people train and spar and said Floyd Snr, Roger and Jeff Mayweather may be in in 30-45 mins. We were pretty hanging so we were happy to delay drinking for the day and wait around.

Whilst we were waiting Joseph Agbejo and Mickey Bey came in. Agbreko to train and Bey to see everyone after he won his world title on the Mayweather/Maidana undercard. To be honest I didn't recognise Bey and he sat right next to me and I didn't realise until people started coming up to him!

I didn't speak to him but whilst sitting next to him I heard some interesting things.

Firstly he said he was negotiating to fight Figueroa. The next bit is more interesting. He got talking to the other guys about Leonard Ellerbe.

In short, Bey said the key reason Mayweather parted with Ellerbe was that Ellerbe was undercutting Mayweather's fighters which Floyd was angry about. He said that a lot of the fighters were getting as an example 3x less than what Ellerbe was making on top of what he should rightfully get.

He was talking at length but it sounded like Ellerbe was getting greedy and was the main reason for the split. My hotel didn't have wifi so I didn't even know about the split until he said it"

Dropped the ball? I thought the fight did 925K buys which was a big improvement over the first fight that Schaefer handled.

Funny that after such a successful card, Floyd is looking to get rid of Ellerbe after his first promotional job netted them Floyd's 2nd best buy rate under the Showtime deal. You would think they would be thrilled by the results.

And after such a great first stab at it, you would think Floyd would be eager to have Ellerbe steering the Mayweather Promotions ship as the lead promoter in the upcoming Pacquiao fight.

Strange that it all seems like doom and gloom on the Money Team after such great success
