Comments Thread For: Video: Jackson Explains His Version of Speaking To Team Ward

[HanzGruber]

vid works for me.. jdj was stumbling and thinking of what to say lol

[mrlopez]

Its still up

Had no issue watching it on my phone or pc. Ward's team tried to fish JDJ from Team Kovalev. He said no, end of story.

[Joe Beamish]

A lot of "um, um, uh, uh's...."

JDJ claims Ward's team called him first to make an offer. He declined out of loyalty to Kovalev, and says the Ward team is letting it be known now, to get inside Kov's head.

Kovalev's situation looks wobbly, lacking the cohesion and clarity of purpose you need to beat a guy like Ward.

Was going to pick Kovalev, but now I doubt it.

He seemed like he was lieing or avoiding talking about the details. Only thing i felt was true was that he was the one called. There are half truths here, jackson probably consodered it and names his price, but it was steep, considering he'd be abondoning a fighter, probabely was expecting it to not be agreed to.

More importantly is wards teams lack of integrity, its apparantly a thing now to sabotage training camps. Ward is such a wannabe, copying floyd to a t.

If someone accused me of awful shyt like that, I'd be righteously pissed. I wouldn't be apologetic-sounding, softly looking for the words.
His attitude says it all.

Have any of you guys seen a JDJ interview before? This is literally how he sounds in EVERY other interview no matter the subject. He is not an elegant speaker. He is always fumbling for words. I have no idea what is true or not true here, but trying to legitimize the other sides accusations because he is not quick on his feet in the interview does not work here. This is just how the guy talks.

I think you (and most here) missed the greater point. When asked if it was "a betrayal of confidence to make it public", why didn't JDJ just answer, "I never went to them, so there was nothing to betray." Or, just say, "These mfkers made this shyt up!"
Instead, going on to explain himself indicates where his mind is at. It's not the mind of someone who wasn't caught up in something.

Raheem did an old police tactic there, he asked a question that has an assumption of guilt, to see if the individual answers as an innocent person or as a guilty one.

Interesting....

That was not very convincing at all! I wish Radio would have asked JDJ about the comments Kovalev made about American coaches being zeroes!

Sounds guilty as fuck. Like a guy who didn't want to call them liars for fear of them producing evidence.

Not a good look, man.
