He lost, dropped a bomb and then regretted it. This unusual participation of the Colombian could be summed up like this John Tehran at the gala set up at the Luna Park for the former Argentine champion Sergius Marvelous Martinez. A piece of paper
If Tehran’s performance in the ring was deplorable, where it lasted just 90 seconds until he received a tepid right jab and left foot, fell, and handed victory to Martínez, what followed was much worse. The boxer checked into the locker room yelling at an executive for money owed but in the midst of defending him assured that they had offered him money to lose.
While all this was going on, Maravilla spoke on television with his immaculate face and at 48 he was excited about a chance at the World Cup against former champion, Kazakh Guennadi Golovkin.
“I came for $3,000 free, but when I was here (in Buenos Aires) They offered me $5,000 to lose.. Now they want to deduct an amount of money that I supposedly owe Andy. A year ago Andy threw me out, now boldly John Molina comes to tell me I owe Andy $900. John Molina is a mouse. Andy says he is a Christian and is the devil himself,” Tehran said, quoting the people around him and leaving a complaint that taints not only the event but also the sport of gloves.
The video was posted on the site boxeocolombia.comand Tehran’s anger wasn’t aimed at the person offering him money to throw away, but at this series of names asking him for a debt and trying to deduct it from the stock exchange.
But the embarrassment continued on Wednesday, when production company Chino Maidana Promotions, owned by the former boxer, found the Colombian and recorded a new video portraying the serious accusation what he had done hours before.
“Hello, I’m John Tehran. Sorry about the video I uploaded last night. A stranger came to the locker room after the fight and asked me to say those words. I apologize to Maravilla Martínez, who is an excellent person, and to Chino Maidana. I was unconscious from the blow I received in combat. Who knows, I apologize, I made that mistake out of anger and impotence of not being able to beat him”, was the unusual explanation? from Colombian
