boxing cyclical excited highs keel lows
It's really no different, boxing has highs and lows and you can't get too excited when you're high and you don't get too down when you're low. Because it's so cyclical that you just have to play on an even keel throughout.
fight lack problem small smaller television together towards
I think the problem is a lack of television dates, especially towards the end of the year. It is not a small fight to be put together for $50,000 to $60,000. You can't put it on a smaller television network.

believed best deal everybody fact fighter four happened highs lose months stuff
Well, there's four months to go, so we'll see. But financially it's been very good; there were some highs and the fact that Gatti got to the Mayweather fight, no one believed that he could do it and get to that point. Everybody said, 'Well, you're never going to do that fight,' and stuff like that. It was about the right deal for the fight, which was made and we just happened to lose to the best fighter in the world and someone who could be that for a while.
