Our reporter sits in The Great Room at The Manor watching baseball and sipping cold beverages with Poindexter Del Crunchy and the Man In The Hat.
Reporter: "So, Wiz, is Tailor on your radar for a possible title defense?"
Pointy: "Let me take that one. She is NOT. Because that radar is turned OFF."
Man In The Hat (nodding): "Pointy is correct. We love us some Courtney Tailor around here, but, all we're concentrating on is THIS pay-per-view and Asylum. When those are in the rear view, when July is in the rear view, we'll start thinkin' about August. Not before."
Reporter: "On another subject, Patton may be on the way out..."
Pointy: "Girl has the tools."
Man In The Hat: "Sure does. She's been in the discussion when we've made changes here, and more than once."
Pointy: "But, having the tools isn't always ENOUGH..."
Man In The Hat: "Right you are, Pointman. Every fighter we've ever had here has had the tools. The question becomes whether or not those tools can be developed to create a championship-level fighter. Sometimes, they can. Sometimes, they can't..."
Pointy: "And, in every case where they can't, the reason is different."
Man In The Hat (nodding): "Buster Douglas. Talk about a guy who could have been a great fighter! Guy had a TON of ability. But, he didn't like boxing, didn't really want to DO it, and, so, he was lazy. He was almost never in shape, almost never focused. Then, one night, he was both. And, he shocked everybody. Then, he went right back to being lazy and uninterested. But, like Pointy says, the reasons are different in every case..."
Pointy: "Sure are."
Man In The Hat: "But, here's hoping Patton puts it together. I like that kid. Almost as much as I like Cicchino."
Reporter: "She's off to a good start."
Man In The Hat: "She's got 'champion' written all over her. Now. Let's watch some ball, shall we?"
