Where there's smoke, there's often fire; the issue came and went, but if you have another logical reason why Duva will make such a scene in calling for purse bids, only to walk away, I'd like to know.
Because that move, after all of the talk that went down, was sketch as heck, regardless of whether there's official proof or not.
Pacquiao never pissed dirty or came back with dirty blood, but there was enough going around that folks were rightfully questioning what was up; Pacquiao, at the age of 28, going from super featherweight all the way up to a catchweight in the junior middleweight division, without losing any of his speed/athleticism and taking his power up in weight with him, being the most glaring.
The moment that the initial Floyd fight, as an outsider looking in, fell apart over Pacquiao refusing to have both he and Floyd tested throughout camp, raised enough su****ion with me. You look at the performances after the initial backing off on testing, plus how long it took Pacquiao to be ready to finally test, and he's about as guilty as you could be without the final proof.
The circumstantial evidence for HBO having put their finger on the neck of Main Events is overwhelming, and if they would do that to Stevenson-Kovalev, I have no doubt that they would do the same for Golovkin-Jacobs (people can diss the fight all they want, but do you honestly believe that HBO will let Golovkin risk his belts, and the aura that they've built over the last 3 years, on a rival broadcaster, in clearly his toughest fight as a professional?).
