Several reporters reached out to Schaefer, who late Monday was exasperated by having to respond to a slew of rumors on Twitter.
?People are calling me and saying, ?I read on Twitter it?s Guerrero,? or ?I read on Twitter it?s Canelo,? or ?I read on Twitter that it?s somebody else,? and I can?t even get my work done trying to get the opponent because I?m just taking all these calls,? Schaefer said.
Schaefer?s task has been made more difficult by the frequent tweets of Oscar De La Hoya, the Golden Boy president, taunting rival promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank.
Over the last several months, De La Hoya has unleashed a steady barrage on Arum, blaming him for everything, it seemed, but the price of gas. He?s been tweeting incessantly about Arum?s role in the Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao talks, or lack thereof.
The 80-year-old Arum is not on Twitter ? his employees set up an account last year and he dictated several tweets, but quickly gave up on it and hasn?t tweeted since ? but it hasn?t slowed De La Hoya.
