Comments Thread For: Elerbe: Berto is 3-3 in His Last Six? So is Pacquiao!

[richardt]

Who has Algeri beat?

He fought Prov who was the favorite in the fight.

Ellerbe is dumb as a box of rocks. Why does Floyd surround himself with morons?

For his pecker

So Ellerbe is comparing Berto's last 6 fights to Pacquiao. A reason that Berto deserve the fight with Mayweather.

But Pac is not facing Floyd this Sept. 12. Berto is 3-3 before fighting Floyd. But Pac is 4-2 before he fought Floyd last May.

Dumbest manager of an elite athlete has got to be Michael Koncz. Michael Koncz has been proven wrong time and time again and overall is just useless. At least Ellerbe sits on Floyd's feet while he does sit ups; that counts for something.

I still believe that Koncz is the main reason why the Mayweather fight didn't happen much earlier than it did, I also truly believe he's the reason why Pacquiao didn't get what he deserved financially, Pacquiao had the chance to leave Arum in 2012 when his contract ran ouz to become his own promoter as he was already big enough of a celebrity to need a promoter that gets to take away 30% of the revenue for doing absolutely nothing, plus this promoter was blocking many big fights including the Mayweather fight during this 'cold war' phase and hence prevented Pacquiao from making big paydays.
Instead of all if this this Idiot Koncz advised Pacquiao to sign a 2 year extension with Arum and then another one in 2014, now if that's not bad Management i don't know what is!

Ellerbe on the other hand advised Mayweather to do the best business decision in sports history by buying out his contract and becoming his own man, even though he wasn't as popular in 2006 as Pacquiao was in 2012, Arum laughed at Floyd when he said he was expecting to make 20 million vs Dela Hoya and he made 25, also there was still bad blood between Oscar and Arum and if Floyd would've stayed with Arum the Dela Hoya fight wouldn't have gotten made, and Mayweather's career would've been completely different, so props to Ellerbe and Haymon even though Ellerbe is definitley not a good promoter.

You blame Koncz, for Pac re-signing with Arum ?

When VisionQuest told Pacquiao that Koncz was an employee of Bob Arum, and that Koncz garnered a monthly salary from Top Rank..... who failed to fire Koncz?

And how did Koncz delay the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight ?

Pac had to accept random blood tests, just like he is happy to do now.
