A Whole Lot of Bitching Going On (The Sports Edition)

Last night around 10 something at night, I got some bad news. And I mean very bad news.

vs with looking on. Ain't that a bitch! Now, I would think people know I am a huge boxing fan and if you listen to the very 1st full episode of the Durty Truth in January. Yes, January http://www.blogtalkradio.com/durtytruth/2010/01/14/the-durty-truth, you will know I am a boxing fan. Back in January, there was talk about Mayweather vs Pacquiao, but even then, that fight was falling apart. But then in May, there was talk again about these two fighting again. YES!!!! Pacquiao agreed to taking the test that everybody thought he was dodging and November the 13th was going to be the date set if both parties agreed. Oh shit! Me and my partners were hyped. It was actually going to go down.

And then, here came the bull shit. There was talk of Mayweather's uncle, Roger, possibly going to jail for beating the breaks off of his boxing girl friend, Mellisa Vil. So what was being said is Floyd was going to sign to fight unless his uncle was training in his corner. Now I can't knock him for that. But, and I mean a big ass but, for 40 million dollars, I don't give a got damn who is training me. I understand that Mayweather is undefeated and has a legacy to live up to, but for that amount of money, I'll take a L if I lost. And if I'm the one fighting, I should already know how to fight. Man, get your damn daddy to train you. You are the one in the ring fighting.

So after all this talk of the fight being called off, Bob Arum set a time clock for Mayweather to sign the fight with Pacquiao. Time went by and the fight wasn't signed. Mayweather nor his people were speaking on the matter. So after the deadline wasn't set, Mayweather's people finally spoke and said no agreement was even mentioned. People had doubts. Shit, I had doubts. Called off again is all I thought. Then, the name of Cotto and Margarito came up for Pacquiao's next opponents. Now if you saw Pacquiao vs Cotto I, I don't even know why they would even want to see a part II.

Then there was talk about Pacquiao vs Margarito. If anybody remember the last time of hearing about Margarito, he was caught illegally wrapping his hands and this is what happen.

So who the fuck wants to see Pacquiao fight either one of these fighter. For real, if he doesn't fight Mayweather, he needs to fight that gave him hell twice.

So like I said, after last night, people are going to have to see Pacquiao vs Margarito. As a fan, I am not even excited about this bullshit fight. Not at all. Now I am starting to believe Mayweather's people's of the fight not even being offered. Why? This about it. Both Pacquiao and Margarito are signed under Bob Arum. Margarito is practically banished from boxing because of them illegal hand wrap thing. So to me, this fight is to put Margarito back in the lime life. Nobody wants to see his cheating ass box anymore. So what other way to revive his career? I am starting to see why UFC is taking over boxing. Because boxer's egos are fucking up everything. Check out Gametyme Radio with your boy on there and see what I'm talking about. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/itsgametyme/2010/07/18/gametyme
So once again, this is a big damage to boxing. So November 13th will just be another date to me. Damn you, Bob Arum!

How Can I?

My boy Dame, aka, Ill Aim wrote this article a few days ago.

Check it out if you can and support good reading. But on my way home today, I actually listened to Rick Ross' CD, Teflon Don and I must admit, I was impressed. Was it the beats? Was it the C.O's lyrics? Who knows. But I can honestly say that after listening to the CD, I would listen to it again and would put some of his songs on a mix if I make one. Now all my long time friends will say, "What the fuck, Turner!" Trust me, Dame himself said I can't comment on his Gucci Maine fanfare, but I think I can. Cause Gucci sucks! Bad! Now don't get me wrong, I will never in my life put this dude in the same category as say M.O.P. or no shit like that, but past his lying ass past, the dude isn't that bad. Like I said, maybe it's the beats, but he isn't as bad as I thought. So I can say people, as hard as it might sound coming from me, go peep his album. Peace.

The New Turner Continues.....

It's been a few days since I last wrote. (I will try to write more often than take these breaks I have been doing.) But I am actually feeling a lot better. I have family here and have been talking to the person who I was talking about left out of my life. Well for anybody who doesn't know who I am talking about, tough. If you know me, follow the Durty Truth every Wednesday night at 10 PM (Plugging the show), then you may know what I'm talking about. But my agenda now is what if I do let this person back in my life. I have family and friends who say let it go and things like that. But yo, it is easier said than done, especially when there are other people involved in the situation. But for some of these people who have made comments to me, you have some damn nerve. People make mistakes in life and some of you all have made a lot. And one thing about me, when you were making mistakes, I never got involved in your mess because it is your life. Now what people can do is suggest things to me. But to say what I better not do? Are you crazy? Because when certain people were dealing with individuals that weren't on their level, I let you make your own decision. When people were telling me about them messing with no good niggas, I just listened and thought, "Damn, they are dumb." So just let me be dumb about my decisions. Hopefully, I am not dumb and what I need to work on will work out for the best. So hopefully on my next post, I will have better news. Matter of fact, by the time I write again, I will be back to normal, rather they are in my life or not. Cause shit, I got faces I need to put a smile on.

New Turner

The past weeks days have been hectic for Mr. Turner. A reality check has hit me right in the face. First of all, let me tell you, love your family and make sure you let them know that. Yesterday, I almost watched a relative die right in front of me. I actually think he was dead for two minutes. Eyes rolled in the back of his head, not breathing. I have no problem that I actually cried yesterday. But I am happy to say that he is doing fine now and the Lord wasn't ready to take him.
I also learned over these few days that sometimes you have to let people from your past go. As much as you may want things to work out, you just have to let people go. Right now, I am going through a hard time in my life. Some one who was close to me is officially gone and it is finally time for both of us to move on. No, for once, I will not dog whoever I am talking about because I cared too much for this person to dog. Watching my loved one almost die made me realize a lot. I honestly wish nothing but the best for this person and hopes they find everything they are looking for in life. Now I will admit it will take me some time to readjusting without this person around, but time heals all and it is time for me to get back to the old Mike, before I had kids. Now don't get me wrong, my kids will still and always will be my first priority. But I have to get my life back.
One love to my Durty Truth family, the callers, my friends and family and especially, my three beautiful kids.
