You can curse me out and call me whatever you want if that makes you feel tough; doesn't change the fact that you are flat out wrong. I was never butthurt that he missed it, I called you out for advocating for rule breaking. All I said was it was unprofessional, which it is, and I'm a fan of both Jacobs and Lemieux.
So that's why I can sit here and say WTF I want cause I got the balls to say it to your face! That's the difference between me and 98% of you cowards on here!

Why did he never state he had no desire for this weigh in before so the IBF was never even on the line?
It isnt about rule breaking as such, its more about the fact that lemieux got castrated for it on here by some posters last week but its fine for Danny.
Before someone comes in here and says this is WBA mandated and the IBF sanctioned the lem fight..
WBONABO Sanctioned the lem fight aswell so im sure it would still have gone ahead...

Even Suiliaman is doing more in that regard. Good on any of them who are making inroads toward some reforms, but to say IBF is the best is a stretch.

The same goes for other orgs. The WBO sit on their hands doing nothing whilst BJS gets fatter and fatter, refusing to fight anyone of note so he can cajole a cash out fight. somehwre within that they ordered two back to back mandatories after a year on inactivity from their champ , the first of which was then allowed to accept a step aside to face the #3. Who happens to also be a bum and promoted by the same person as the champ.
The IBF have never had an issue with unifications. When have they prohibited or got in the way of unifications when they explicitly accept that they ***** their mandos? the only reason i can see is when a fighter doesnt want to adhere to putting on 10 lbs or less to gain an advantage, which was a rule placed to combat ******* yourself up the **** on IV and coming in two weights above the sanctioned weight.
