I'm pretty objective with everyone I rep for. I'm fully aware of Broner's limitations and flaws.

Congrats @patscorpio on becoming the new Mod.
Always good to see another real nikka join the NWO rankings.

2x...and defending
Dan Rafael chat wrap 8/1:
- Thurman will fight this fall, but he has not heard his name linked to the Mayweather undercard at all.
- Talking with Rios for his fight vs Chavez, he said he would like to win another title, but it is not a priority. He wants to fight the best guys and be remembered like Gatti.
- If Rios wins there is a good chance we see Rios-Provodnikov at the end of the year.
- Purses: Rios (925K), Chavez (25K + Argentina TV revenue), Vargas (120k), Novikov (105k)
- No real info on Cotto's next opponent...Rubio wouldn't shock him.
- Al and GB are doing business still because they need each other. Things will change in the not too distant future.
- Thinks Soliman is a likely opponent for GGG. Doubts the winner of Cotto-Canelo (assuming they fight) fights GGG right after.
- Chisora-Fury II is trying to be rescheduled for October.
- Chanelo-Kirkland is a possibility, not near being done.
- Andre Ward needs to stay in his lane. (regarding calling out 160, but disregarding 175).
- Shannon Briggs is really that delusional.
- RJJ has major financial issues.
- Cotto's next fight in December likely on regular HBO, not PPV.
- If RJJ ever got a Cruiserweight title shot, HBO would not televise it...and RJJ would be expected to lose vs any of the current champions.
- James Toney fight cancelled last weekend...because he heard James Toney just didn't show up.
- Glen Tapia's failed blood test - he has a health condition (life long) that makes it more difficult for his blood to clot. Wasn't sure what was any different from his past tests.
- Hopkins next fight still TBD. He is trying to fight Stevenson, but Stevenson may be iced because of the lawsuit against him. If so, he will try to fight Kovalev.
- He tapes every fight on and burns them on DVD's (in the old school on VHS). Estimates he has nearly 7,000 DVD's/VHS with fights.
- If they both win on 9/6, likelihood of Broner-Matthysse next...unlikely.
- Thought the point taken away against Perez was fair, but didn't like it.
- Thurman will fight this fall, but he has not heard his name linked to the Mayweather undercard at all.

Chaves getting fukked over bad with that purse. Rios getting paid a nice lil grip for furthering his descent into brain damage.
James Toney don't give no fukks.
Damn, I thought I was the only nikka that still taped fights on VHS. I need to upgrade. fukking tapes take up too much space. Got like tote lockers full of them shyts.
RGG has financial problems?... did anyone know this?

Rios making more than GGG did his last fight

While coming off two back to back losses and a failed test.
Don't get me wrong I'm still a #GGGoodBoy, but I still had to laugh when I seen that shyt. Arum for some reason thinks the world of Rios.

toney not showing up for his fight. probably fukked around and got lost on his way to the arena getting caught in that burger king traffic 
tbh what can Paulie really tell himPaulie called up Special K to give him tips N advice against Porter
tbh what can Paulie really tell him
Exactly.
The only thing Paulie was successful at in that fight was getting his ass kicked around the ring.

I pictured Paulie after the beat down...sitting in the dark with bloodshot red eyes, havent shaved in weeks, watching hrs N hrs of Porter fights looking for a way to beat him
