COONEY'S THOUGHTS

So I was called a "Hillbilly mother fu@ker" by Floyd Mayweather Sr the other day. How polite huh? As I have experienced in boxing many times now, the drama that this small world of ours (boxing world) holds is funny. I just found a blog from a blogger who chose to be anonymous (wow big surprise there huh?) Who wrote, or tried to write what happened with yours truly and Floyd Mayweather Sr.

And of course it was not accurate.

You know what's really funny? Mr anonymous called my website www.8countnews.com an amateur site and he claims that nobody has heard of who I am in boxing. Honestly? I could care less who knows me or who doesn't know me. With that said, just to make a point, all one has to do is visit my site and a few things will be clear. One being, no matter how hard Mr anonymous wants it to be, 8CountNews is anything but amateur. Heck, current NABF champ Maureen Shea writes for 8CountNews. Current WBO bantamweight world champion Kaliesha West writes for 8CountNews. Roy Jones Jr, an all time great, stops by all of the time to do the Podcast show. Emmanuel Steward, Al Bernstein, HBO's Harold Lederman, all regular guests on the 8CountNews Podcast. Amateur? Nah, what's amateur and bitchassness is being anonymous.

What's amateur is some punk ass wannabe that hides behind a keyboard and spews a bunch on negative bullshit about other people like me and Dennis Guillermo. Mr anonymous is a physical mass of jealousy, and he holds hatred toward a few guys that enjoy what they do.

This idiot starts a blog as an anonymous writer and talks trash about two guys that MOST people who follow boxing have in fact heard of.

When you read what this clown has to write it's obvious that he has certainly heard of Guillermo and I. I mean HALF of his articles on his weak little blog are about us.

Ah yes, just one more hater to add to the list of the jealous. Ho hum, and I still go forward.
