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

[Jim Tom]

What Slime Ball Eddie Hearn Did is disgraceful and stinks to high heaven. Just shows he doesn’t care about fighter but money. This guy has no moral compass and is rotting to the core.

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.

Diuretics won't be enough, he'll be on laxatives next.

Sound like the typical dude trying trying to talk around Floyd's d$%k. Just pull it out first bro.

BWaHaahaHA!!

I do usually think that the sport needs to be tougher on drug use than it is now, but I can’t really bring myself to get fired up about this one. It doesn’t matter if Chavez juices up with radioactive rhino blood or whatever, he’s still going to get his ass beat.

Only at Boxing Scene can a fighter refuse to take a drug test that’s clearly spelled out in the rules and groupies defend the actions of the fighter because “he’s in our approved stable.” This is when you know boxing has gone to sh it and moisty millenial soy boys have taken over as fans.

Arum right on this one , no question..

Margarito Applies For a Texas License, Arum is Optimistic

August 18, 2010:

It lasted over five hours, but on Wednesday the California State Athletic Commission voted 5-1 against issuing Antonio Margarito a license to box in their state. Margarito lost the ability to box in the United States in February 2009 when his license was revoked by the CSAC following a hand-wrapping scandal in January 2009.

Margarito (38-6, 27KOs) is scheduled to fight Manny Pacquiao on November 13 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The vacant WBC junior middleweight title will be on the line. According to Top Rank CEO Bob Arum, Margarito has already applied for a license to box in the state of Texas. Arum is "very optimistic" that Margarito will be granted a license. Strong sources have indicated that Texas will likely grant Margarito's application for a license to box.

The ruling in California was the second setback for Margarito in 2010. He unsuccessfully applied for a license in Nevada, but the the state's athletic commission ruled that he must re-apply in California and have his case retried there before attempting to fight in Las Vegas. Arum appears confident about Margarito's chances to land a boxing license in Texas.

"The revocation is over, they've denied Antonio Margarito a license," said Arum. "But now, every state is free to grant him a license or deny him a license."

Close enough! Margarito couldn't get a license in California for USING ILLEGAL WRAPS! Nevada wouldn't give him a license until California did, so Bob went to Option #3, Texas! I still see this as the Pot Calling the Kettle Black!
