The retired fighter, currently in rehab battling cocaine and booze issues, according to the gossip site TMZ, took to Twitter to make some amends on Thursday afternoon. (I cleaned up the Tweets for spelling and grammar and such). MisterLee says: I hope he's honest. As a fighter, he was honest, hard working, and gave fans what they paid for. He fought good fighters, didn't trash talk, and kept it clean in and out of the ring. As a promoter, he's been the opposite. He's been a snake, dishonest, lying, backstabbing (fallout with mosley? trying to ruin pacquiao marquez 3?), and simply doing a worse job than when Schaeffer was doing more of the promoting. I applaud you Oscar and hope you can do for the sport through promoting what you once did (and might do again) through fighting. Holler! But like the saying goes: talk is cheap! Make it happen! admin says: Didn't Mosley bolt Golden Boy? Can you blame him for jumping ship to make a boatload of cash?? I hope he's honest.

On my job as a case worker a day doesn't go by without me having to place my lips on somebodies disgruntled kiester through the course of my day (although over the phone).. While filing a law suit over what should have been "fighting" words sets a precident for legal action as a remedy against below-the-belt trash-talk....... GBP,Mayweather and company should have understood the sensitivities of the topic they were playing with. I would expect nothing less from a corporate leader and wish it had been Floyd who manned up first to break the ice. Doesn't matter if he meant it, just matters that ODLH spoke the words necessary to make Manny whole. Now maybe TOP RANK and GBP can bring us the fights we have been waiting for. Class Act so far by Arum not gloating in the press. brownsugar says: For the record, Floyd Jr will not apologize until after he's beaten Pac. Radam G says:
I guess that record is BROKEN, because Lil Floyd will never BEAT Da Manny in dat squared jungle or probably any jungle. Holla!

Big Money O is and has always been a class act. Of course, we Filipinos can easily forgive him. "But by the Grace of God, there go I!" BMO has admitted to what -- chemicals -- made him a nasty temp demon. [All of us who have been knowing him forever was shock about his recent behavior. Now we know what it was. And salute him for mannin' up.] Boozes and drugs will turn the best of us into something that we will never believe. Big salutes to BMO. He is still Da MAN and a gentleman. And he will conquer this latest adversed plight. Knock dat sorry sucka right off his back. Holla!
