Pacquiao Settles Lawsuit Against Schaefer & De La Hoya

[Mars_ax]

Following De La Hoya's tweeter apology to Arum and Pacquiao, Pacquiao had settled his defamation lawsuit against Schaefer and De La Hoya on confidential terms. In connection with the dismissal the following statement was issued by both.

“Richard Schaefer and Oscar de la Hoya, on behalf of themselves and Golden Boy Promotions, wish to make it crystal clear that we never intended to claim that Manny Pacquiao has used or is using any performance enhancing drugs, and further state that we do not have any evidence whatsoever of such use.

“Manny Pacquiao is one of the greatest fighters of all time, and we apologize if anyone construed our prior remarks as in any way claiming or even suggesting that Manny uses or has used performance enhancing drugs.”

Hopefully a Pacquiao vs Ortiz can be arranged after the Marquez fight.

So I guess Pacquiao's Lawsuit against the Mayweathers is still going on?

Yes, the Lawsuit against Mayweathers is still going on. And according to Petrocelli, Pacquiao's lawyer, they may be adding to the lawsuit because of additional defamatory statements from the Mayweathers.

While the suit against Schaefer and De La Hoya was dropped, Pacquiao's suit against the Mayweathers continues, Petrocelli said.

"This is just a dismissal against the Golden Boy parties," Petrocelli said. "We may be adding to (the lawsuit) because of additional defamatory statements that the Mayweather folks have put out. All the defendants tried to have the case dismissed, claiming the case had no merit, and the court denied all those motions, so the case proceeds. We will ask for a trial date in the near future against the Mayweather parties."
