Clown Quillin explains why he really turned down 1

[alexguiness]

Boxing would be a better sport without Quillan in it.

This guy had a different excuse every time he was asked about Korobov until he finally settled on his uncle having cancer as the reason. He didn't say anything about that for months.

Yall are pisses of ****. His wife just had a miscarriage and his uncle had cancer

What's with you suddenly having pics of 2 heartless p.ussy Canadians ???




I don't know about that, from the sounds of it Quillen went through some real life sh.it growing up and made something of himself can't hate him for that . I would consider the Internet cowboy who talks reckless knowing there's no repercussions,who's probably a ****** and lives with their Mom having more of a worthless and pointless life

holy sh#t . things just got real!

We went over this...

First off, we all watch too much boxing to know that even Rd1 upsets can happen, including Quillin clipping Lee to the canvas faster than any one with a single cross blow.

2nd, it was his uncle that was dying with cancer.

Apparently Lil'G gets a pass because his dad died of cancer and which is supposedly the reason why the Lee bout never happened nor was it ever even mentioned again... but apparently Quillin can't get family passes.

Didn't Buster Douglas' mom pass away during the Tyson training camp? Therefore Quillin or Lil'G are both guilty for that reason, because Douglas went and fought?

So you see... everyone should be held to a standard and given passes if family members are at stake.

2nd, Roc Nation was a conflicting situation and Quillin was the early roster of PBC. That was Haymon's call. The same call in which Broner turned down 40million or Thurman turning down 6 million under Roc Nation circumstances. Apparently PBC was not abiding to any Roc Nation process.

Quillin had just had a baby in that time too. It's not uncommon that boxers want to spend time with their families or handle family business.

Any time a fighter has a family bereavement I'm willing to cut them some slack. Quillin had two and I'm not going to rag on him for not being willing to disclose his business to the world. Boxing's just a job at the end of the day.

Quillin's a headcase, but he's still a potentially exciting fighter to watch and I still consider him a top 5 MW. His overhand right is a gun.

The biggest problem I have with Quillin is his lack of activity. After he beat N'Dam he dropped to just 1-2 fights a year. For a guy with a brief amateur background that was ******.

I'd be happy to see Quillin/Korobov later this year.

Quillin is a prime example of why boxing isn't as popular today.

The dude was happy to drop his belt to avoid the pressure of being a champion, and even more happy that he got knocked out in 90 seconds against jacobs, because he will never be pressured to face Golovkin or any other top fighter again.

But he made a lot of money, and that is what he will brag about. Dude is pathetic.

[Eff Pandas]

I think Quillin gets a lot of **** about that situation & actually Haymon gets a lot of **** about this situation, but from my understanding of the situation Quillin made a life decision. Does he wanna fight a guy for career high money or did he wanna lose his wife?

That was the situation he was in from how I understand it. His wife had had a miscarriage & blamed & hated Quillin for it due to him not being home + for not coming home afterwards cuz of a fight previous to the one in question. He put his wife above boxing for over a year in the prime of his career. Its easy to **** on him not knowing or caring about his decisions outside of the ring, but I think Quillin made the best decision for him at the time & he's the one who gots to live with that. And I'm sure Quillin is happy with his wife then he'd be with an extra 1.4M or whatever he woulda got in that fight.

This. Its super easy to not think of boxers as real people & to think every possible decision they make is a boxing first decision, but boxers are real people & all of them aren't boxing first 24/7/365. I commend the ones who are, but I can't fault the ones who aren't.

And the f#cked up part of these kinds of situations is few people every really know or care about a boxers personal life & how those decisions have influenced there in the ring opportunities & outcomes. Everything doesn't happen in a vacuum. Real lives are happening outside the ring.
