Twitter Chatter:  J-Rock takes the high road after Hurd pulls out of rematch

WBA/IBF junior middleweight champion Julian "J-Rock" Williams on his predecessor, Jarrett Hurd's decision to avoid a direct rematch with Williams: "I don’t kick no man while he’s down. I wish Hurd the best and I’m confident he’ll be champion again."
 
Shakur Stevenson complaining about the difficulty of making fights between boxers signed to different networks/platforms: "All that 'other side of the street' shit in boxing is so trash. It takes away from the sport. I’m a boxer and I’m a boxing fan. I enjoy seeing and being in the best fighting the best... So Bob [Arum] and Al [Haymon] and even Eddie [Hearn] and Oscar [De La Hoya] need to have a big ass meeting and make boxing great again!"
