Wait, isn't this irrelevant? The accusations were about actually taking a personal sponsorship for mma and changing it to a personal sponsorship for boxer. The fact that she was offered a sponsorship for mma but couldn't come to an agreement with the company doesn't relate to the matter.

No, it's not irrelevant. Look at her original statement.

In particular, I was disappointed in MMA for being swayed by "J"s claim that I had 'cut' a personal sponsorship that had been offered. I was crushed and disappointed that a player I had taken care of would believe a manager who had only been on for two months, and I don't even know how much I cried. "J" tried to take MMA and some other players to make a new team, and that he would find a sponsor. The important thing is that MMA was willing to along solely on "J"s word, and he only came clean to me once I found out what was going on.

This has now been directly contradicted, because she did in fact cut a personal sponsorship that was offered, according to Razer, and MMA did in fact have reason to be suspicious. The reasons why she rejected the sponsorship don't even matter, or if they are even talking about the same sponsorship.

The drama is not about Jessica taking a sponsorship and forwarding it to Boxer; it is really about (and this is the broader umbrella) Jessica taking a sponsorship away from a player without informing that player.

That being said, if Manager J was involved as an intermediary and a translator, it is entirely possible that he mistranslated and led Jessica to reject the offer.


The paragraph just before that in the statement is what I was talking about, where the accusations of embezzling were made.
+ Show Spoiler +
What I found was shocking. "J" had been telling me and the sponsors different things. While he was telling me that things were going along well in a certain way, he was actually not even in contact with the sponsors at all, or handling the negotiations so poorly that they broke down.

The more ridiculous thing was that he was telling the players that I was receiving sponsorships in their names, and embezzling those funds. For certain, SlayerS was being financially and hardware wise through Boxer's personal sponsorship. The players all knew that Boxer was running the team out of own funds, and I could not understand how they could believe what that manager had to say.

In particular, I was disappointed in MMA for being swayed by "J"s claim that I had cut off a personal sponsorship that had been offered.


Razer Korea confirmed anyway that J didn't tell Jessica about it, which we probably could have already assumed since jessica said he was telling her and the sponsors different things. J really seems to have made a giant mess of things(along with, to a slightly lesser extent, everyone else).

Chris mitchell's latest tweet denies that Jessica didn't know about it though.
http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/11zew4/mma_had_personal_sponsorship_offers_oh_jessica/c6qx5wj
It was rejected, the only people who can reject it are Jessica or boxer being the owners. So they did know about it


Why are you linking a reddit thread that says nothing about that as evidence? It says "I should probably add that the individual sponsorship offer for Boxer was also rejected at the same time. So they might have just put the entire team above individual players. Regards Chris Mitchell". That hasn't said anything about the razor korea tweet, who rejected it, or whether J actually told jessica about it.

because he said he talked with Jessica directly and the only ones who can reject deals are the owners, AKA boxer or jessica, And razer korea tweet has been deleted. -_-

Surprised if they get out of this unscathed.This is a giant exercise in message discipline and it seems like some part of the marketing department is out of sync.

So the facts are
1. Manager J lied to all parties
2. MMA falling victim to J's lies
3. Jessica felt betrayed by MMA because he believed J's story over Jessica's and
acted without confirming J's story

It seems pretty clear to me I don't know why people say its confusing.

It could also be that more than 1 deal was offered, at different times by different people.

"To clarify: The proposal was rejected. but i dont know how it's been translated by "Manager J". Both were copied."


and there it is. so he did tell both, but chances are, jessica left it to manager J to translate, and probably could've misconstrued it, and then manipulated jessica or Mitchel into thinking there was a no deal. THEN turned it around and told MMA that jessica turned down his personal sponsor.

manager J strikes again.

This is probably one of the only things people can say about this whole incident with any certainty.
