Gary Shaw stepped in, though, and stole him away from his then-promoter and that was all she wrote...he relocated Chad's training to Florida...

I knew nothing about this, it was a total surprise to me...now I dont know the details of why he left, etc etc....but I do know that he was under contract and SHAW should have went about this much differently...it was a total blindside...it would be like me trying to talk to your girl and convince her to leave you while she is still with you... maybe u are no good, who knows but the fact is that I should respect the fact that she is yours and not mine...but that is the way business is run...Chad wanted me to still train him, I woul dhave liked to of course...but it would have been a situation where I woul dhave had to drastically alter my day to day life in order to do that..and - nothing against Chad- but I wasnt ready to do that...and his manager and promoter had him down in St. Petersburgh within just a few days of that conversation.

Everything was going very well between us, we had a great talk the day after the fight about what he did well, how he felt about his progression, etc. He was under contract to CES Promotions...then one day I get a call from him where he tells me he had just signed with Shaw.

So much pro potential lost, but IBHOF ain't even fit to induct Little Red Lopez, so nobody should really care about those clowns. Savon's election would definitely put a buzz into Cuba and provide a larger bridge of dialogue between Cuba and the US, but we know it ain't gonna happen.
Anyways, we know youDa Man with all da connections, so we all waiting on those clips of Ali taking on that motorcycle gang on the banks of the Ohio River in Louisville after winning his gold medal. You know, after they chased him down from that diner with him on that little scooter of his.
We know you can deliver the KO clip of the century, so we're all locked and ready to be loaded!
Oh, remember Boozo? Here's his national flag, and you know he's watching and waiting too, so do it for the boozer......
