Comments Thread For: Arum Erupts Over Hearn Pushing Forward With Chavez Jr.

[OctoberRed]

No, a date was requested for a Jacobs fight, not specifically Jacobs vs. Chavez Jr. because with Chavez Jr. you never know until weigh-ins if there’s actually going to be a fight.

Just because there was rumors of Jacobs vs. Chavez Jr. that doesn’t give NSAC authority to do what they want with Chavez.

And I’m not siding with Chavez, the dude is an idiot and should stay out of the sport. NSAC just seems to be on a power trip.

You are wrong. It was requested for Jacobs vs. Chavez Jr. It was officially on their calendar.

There is NO dispute over that from Chavez or Hearn.

Hearn has even stated that if Chavez Jr. was one of his fighters, he would have asked him to take the test when the VADA agent arrived.

What is being disputed is that Chavez Jr's federal license had expired and technically he was not a licensed boxer - so he wasn't obligated to take a test. And NSAC is calling bull on that technicality.

So now there's a bunch of strange people collecting urine. Does anybody else know anything about this? Why aren't these urine bandits exposed? BS! All Chavez had to do was pee in a cup. He's been caught before, he knows the routine. Strangers my eye.

Eddie Hearn was right to file a lawsuit. How can they make you do VADA testing when the fighters haven't even signed a contract yet. I don't care what the commissions "rules" are! The Commission is a power hungry.

What the *** you talking about. So only when the contract is signed they can get tested? You are an idiot.

They can promote the fight, have a date and location but the fighters are safe from testing?

Obviously you have no clue about anything. Keep believing anything Hearn does.

I rarely believe any promoter and have disagreed with Arum numerous time but he is correct here.

Just doing a google search Chavez Jr. was suspended on October 31. Jacobs vs. Chavez was officially announced on November 8th.

If a contract was signed by Chavez Jr. before October 31st then I think they’re completely justified suspending and c**kblocking the Chavez fight. If a contract wasn’t signed before October 31st then I think they’re wrong.

Either way sounds like they need to clarify rules on when they have authority to start testing fighters.

I love how this old broken down hypocrite is so concerned about the safety of fighters and respecting the Muhammad Ali act all of a sudden.

You pushed a juiced up midget from the Philippines for years and rumor has it you stole Top Rank from Muhammad Ali. This old crook doesn't respect anything or anyone except for his pockets. F--K OUTTA HERE.

[DJTRUTH]

Go down to Wild Card, if Jr. Is still there, looks like he weighs 185. Good luck with that, Jacob's will fight Rosado Friday.

Juiced up

A juiced up midget, who has been tested over and over and over, never even remotely tested the least bit positive for anything. Sound like the typical dude trying trying to talk around Floyd's d$%k. Just pull it out first bro.
