    Can't make weight? Sounds like a Haymon fighter to me.

      fighter promoted by Haymon gets absurd UD win, and you are doing Helen Keller impressions.

      I dont exactly need the profilers from Criminal Minds to put this one together.......
      How many threads were dedicated to the scoring of the Brazaele-Kassi fight?

      So you put words in my posts solely so you can make this about Haymon when he has nothing to do with the thread.

      Ok.

      Of all the other posters that questioned the scores-did you ask if they commented on the Brazeale-Kassi scoring?

        I am literally laughing my ass off that you are STILL taking the position that claiming something "smells fishy" and "something was up" in no way shape or form implies that a fix was on.


        Thats a new low, even for you. And thats really saying something....lol

        at least have the stones to own up to your position

Then I remembered a couple of months ago there were rumors of Haymon courting Walters. Walters co-promoter is Warriors boxing, one of PBC's main promoters. I've been trying to find more information but boxing contracts are hard to find. I know he signed with Top Rank in 2013 but can't find out the details. This is about the only thing I can find.

          TS post (before additions), my response, your response. My post clearly references his contract being up as an explanation for the Loma fight not happening and the absurd scores.

          Then you jump in. Nothing about fixing.

          I got it, you wanted to make this about agenda's when there is none. It's about the fight, no more no less.

          I can see why your site folded and is no longer in business.

              deflect deflect deflect.

              Answer the question. If something "smells fishy", and "something was up", what is it that you are saying??

              See, most people with over a 5th grade education would assume you were implying a fix, by virtue of you using those terms to describe what took place.

              But in the event that you were NOT implying a fix, what exactly does "smells fishy" imply? Does that imply that everything is fine and dandy?

              Own it big boy. It only stings for a moment.......

                Thanks for all of this I had no idea arum was so corrupt

                    Interesting observation.

                    I was also surprised at the HBO crew making reverences to Sosa being a 'TV friendly' fighter who they wouldn't mind seeing again, even though he was, IMO, being obviously outclassed.

                      Or it could b/c they actually watched him fight saw he was a decent enough fighter who displayed some power and Walters was moving up in weight and wouldn't have his normal 10+ lb advantage. maybe.
