Ron Paul Supporters Hope To Deliver A Knockout
Seconds out as campaign to advertise on back of boxer
gets underway

A new grassroots campaign in support of Ron Paul's presidential
bid is seeking to raise funds in order to place an advertisement
on boxer Roy Jones Jr. during an upcoming fight.
In a much anticipated match up Roy Jones Jr. squares
off against Felix "Tito" Trinidad at New York's famed
Madison Square Garden on the 19th of January and if all goes to
plan Jones could have the Texas Congressman's name stenciled across
his back for all to see.
The move is being organized by Ron Paul supporter
Heath Whiteaker who states:
"We are raising funds for an ad on the back
of Roy Jones Jr for his big fight against Trinidad. Like Ron
Paul, Roy Jones Jr. has been very outspoken against the war
in Iraq. This fight will be huge, seats are currently going
for $25K. Any help that you can give is much appreciated. If
you still have questions I can be reached by PM, or Phone 863-837-1032."
Whiteaker's plan is to use the fight to generate
attention for Ron Paul's efforts towards the Nevada caucuses which
are scheduled to take place the very same day.

The idea stems from ads run by online casino Golden Palace who
printed their name on a middleweight named Bernard Hopkins (pictured)
for a bout, also against Felix Trinidad, in September 2001.
The Trinidad vs. Jones domestic pay-per-view telecast,
beginning at 9 pm ET/6 pm PT will be produced and distributed
by HBO Pay-Per-View and will be available in more than 61 million
pay-per-view homes.
Whiteaker needs to raise $50,000 by the 19th in
order to secure the Ron Paul ad. If the total is not reached full
refunds will be issued. Click

911 has noted the interest the fight is now receiving,
predicting the two fighters, who have thirteen world titles between
them, will reach a huge audience:
"We are already getting substantial inquiries
related to Roy Jones, Jr. well in advance of the fight, which
is highly unusual for a boxing match," Senior Editor, Payton
O'Brien commented.
The fight will be re-run on ESPN, and HBO, ensuring
a repeat run of the advertisement after the fight.
