Maverick, deh vid yah....deep. Dat part about how di JFF crush his chance of playing for Watford....had me. I felt the heartbreak 💔 for him. I too was critical of him about his indiscipline during the Simoes era but that Watford story was a soft spot for me. Excellent content in this video. 👌🏽. I love this one
For your popularity and respect from jamaicans home an abroad, I really think by now you should be the host of a football program for jamaican footballers home and abroad, you've the name an experience to be the most credible football analyst!!! 🤔2025 !!!
Blacka a real youth, very quiet & also not a easy youth to deal with if you don't understand. I used to play with him in the Excelsior gym & Sunday morning & uptil now at 45 yrs & old & I can tell you he's not a normal balla very talented, but was very lazy, but whenever that ball at his foot expect something special!!
Emotional indeed Maverick 😢 I'd love if you or anyone else, could put together a highlight reel of Blacka Pearl's performance on the field, and remind Kohn Public of the talent you dedicated this episode to. Really feel it for him still. The fact that he didn't didn't didn't have an agent and found his way to Watford spoke volumes about his self confidence and his desire to succeed. But the JFF should answer some questions about the decision not to permit him to be signed by Watford. When ghetto youth say that "people a fight against them", this could be seen as a prime example.
Great show. At first I was apprehensive that Maverick's sympathy would erode something football fans knew (that it all came down to Walter himself). I felt that Walter would not tell the truth, and he would do what many prima donna do - blame the Federation or coach for every little nick or wart - something they could never do in established football cultures. In the end, you came to the correct conclusion - Walter Boyd had the world at his feat. I will not blame Simoes or the Federation one bit. For example, Walter's discipline to attend training and keep his fitness is, as you confirmed, "notorious". I am also pleased you did not put Boyd on live, because perhaps some of his fans would cry. You can tell us in the future where he "is" now (e.g., his headspace, living, etc). Thank you again for a great show. Keep up the good work.
Yes. I get it. Walter was not one to put in the hard work to improve himself. That's very bad and he can only have to fault himself for that. However, what I cannot see beyond though, is Watford's interest in him being thwarted by the JFF. Badmind is at the heart of everything wrong with Jamaicans. Prove me otherwise! How did being a stumbling block help the programme?
Jah Jah know star, was my baller but in life we all make mistakes, some recover from them but some don't, big up Walter Boyd, mi baller fi life, 👍🏾👏🏿💪🏾🇯🇲
Maverick, every Jamaican especially grassroots Jamaican who uses their natural abilities (mostly none scholastic talents) to earn a living, needs a lesson in how to manage:1) Time, 2) Dedication, 3) Discipline, 3) Arrogance, and proper behavioral skills. As youths we are most likely to be taught the opposite, it is a culture in our upbringing.
Me use to follow blacka boyd to games and he was technical gifted,his skills could make him complete it today nodern day football and did good,i watch him play against jdf in a game where arnett give the 8 nill and walter boyd score 2 goals and when he finish play and sit in the middle of the field and he draw crowd a look pan him,he was a fan favorite
Ricardo Fuller never good like Boyd and look how far him reach, Boyd could make man United side at that time, it's just lock of decipline he has to regret it, such a brilliant talent wasted, he's still my baller to the end.
Exactly. He could have learnt true professionalism and discipline there and could have translated all that to the national team after … but such is life
Boyd is justified in having no regrets. He was the biggest name in Manning Cup for Excelsior High School and a huge name for local football and he did make the national team. He went on to play PROFESSIONAL football at Swansea...yes professionally. No lazy man nuh play deh so. The only regret he may have, is trying to please such an ungrateful following of Jamaicans. It is no mistake so many represent other countries. Blacka Pearl will always remain a success story for ghetto youths of Jamaica. He was never and is not a failure. Big up XLCR Chris Bailey, Noah Cooke, Blacka Pearl ....name them all.
I remember when they'd introduce him as "Teenaged striker Walter Boyd." The most skillful Jamaican player that I've ever seen. I watched him play at Foxboro in Massachusetts when Jamaica played against the US in a CONCACAF match. Simoes gave Boyd a run with 5 mins left in the game. I saw Boyd bruck out the whole box as Foxboro lif' up under his prodigious skill. He then passed the ball to another Jamaican player, and the ball was cleared away. I'll never forget that game 🇯🇲 😊.
If Walter Boyd could do it all over again, he still would not change a thing. He said he has no regrets. No wonder why he was also on the bench a lot during his Manning cup years at Excelsior.
Nuh really eno, but things kinda different now so u certain situations nah go really manifest....but u still have nuff yute now who a fall through the cracks due to lack of proper guidance
I used to Love to watch his Skills with the Ball. I was so angry at him when he got benched when he went to Panama or after Panama, dont quote me . He used to remind me of this Colombian Footballer that is known for his Bicycle Kicks due to how he could handle the Ball. So Sad !!!
I remember a rhetoric at the time during the Shell Cup series where the Caribbean had 2 young big time ballers that people expected to go to England. They were Dwight Yorke and Boyd...this was when Jamaica had Roderick Reid, Teagot etc...boyyyyy all the Pearl needed was just a little direction and professional support...just imagine where he could have been.
He scored a brilliant free kick against Mexico in the OFFICE as well in a practice match. Onanadi Lowe scored a header ftom Boyd's corner kick whicj Jamaica won 2-1.
You cannot single out Blacka Pearl alone,nuh Baller from Jamaica especially star ballers was the same way with training and honestly he was better than all Dem
Could you upload the interview and if you don't have the recording, it would be good if you start recording and upload to TH-cam or a podcast platform. Keep stepping!
If that’s true, then the federation is vindictive and dirty. How can you have the heart to destroy a next’s man career that has no implication on you? He came to Canada to do a friendly and the coach asked them to warm and the Pearl’s attitude to warm was frustrating everyone. The dude is extremely lazy for real. Still, the federation should have given him the benefit of the doubt and free him up.
I was fortunate to watch him.play many times at Galaxy , National Team, etc. He was one of the most talented anywhere in the world. However, a culture of indiscipline, negative peer pressure, lack of vision, and poor conflict resolution cost him so much. I cant totally blame him because he also had poor guidance and a lack of proper leadership and support where and when it mattered most. I wish he can put behind him his failures and progress in whatever he's doing.
Boyd engineered his own demise, rasta, nobody manipulates d ball, space & opponent like boyd, me nu forgive him for dissing the african wizard Weah, rasta, trust me
How was he to be professional when he was never taught and Jamaica never had a culture of professionalism in his time? Walter Boyd born in any other country would’ve been a phenomenal world beater. Even though he is to take some of the blame I think the JFF and coaches in those times failed him as a youth. Discipline and professionalism are being instilled in our young sports women and men nowadays. It certainly wasn’t so when Walter was a youth. Still I say, we have not seen a baller the caliber of Walter Boys or none who can remotely fit in his shoes since he left the sport. He was simply world class. I first saw him when I went to a manning cup double header to support KC. Excelsior Match was the feature match of that double header and he made me watch every excelsior match since even though I never supported his school. I also watched almost every Match he played for Jamaica plus followed him when he was at Swansea. He was that good
AT AGI WE TRIED TO TRANSFORM WALTER, WE TRULY DID; LEFT TO OUR CREW IT WOULD HAVE WORKED BUT "POLITRICKS" , WALTER'S "CONGENITAL LAIDBACKNESS " AND OUR YOUTHFULNESS AT THE TIME WE WERE UNABLE TO REACH THE ULTIMATE GOAL YOU ALLUDED TO. BELIEVE IT OR NOT THOUGH WE HAD SOME SUCCESS.
@@stopmotionandgaming4877 CANT REMEMBER SEEING DENNIS, I WAS AN ALMOST FANATICAL CRICKET FAN/ PLAYER/ COACH BUT WALTER MADE ME WATCH FOOTBALL WITH HIS GENIUS ON THE BALL REMINISCENT OF WATCHING PELE IN MY YOUNGER DAYS.
He was to blamed 100%. Why all others ballers who came through the same system didn’t have the same problems has him. He was very skillful and he thought he was bigger than training and coach telling him what to do. That’s why he failed
Nothing wrong with what you said Maverick! The Pearl just never shun the way the world expected him to. We all knew he was great, but that lack of professionalism beat him bad. Bibi was good but wasn’t as great skill wise as Walter Boyd and he had a decent overseas career. What if… I tell you
With all due respect to the Pearl but 95% of the bad vibes that reach him are self inflicted wounds he was his own demise sadly. I hear a lot of people trying to make excuses for him and I think that’s not a fair analysis. His poor work ethic and lazy mentality towards training and indiscipline led to his downfall so sad. But we were well and truly entertained by his fancy footworks back in those days. Pearl was definitely a crowd favorite for sure.
Typical Jamaican mentality, unforgiving or no empathy to your own kind just like the same Jamaican system that lock up people during covid but allow tourists n politicians to do whatever...did Boyd have a mentor or a figure that cared for him, to guide him n push him smh to b his best... I dnt blame u still cuz the mental slavery is generational we beat our own
How come people never Talk about a Reggae boy who was actually very successful in the English Premier League from the same time as Boyd, Riccardo Gardener???
You could be right because what we call work hard and bad footballers in Jamaica is not what class in England. He was very skill maybe that was what we Jamaicans like to see.
Real general on the ball, it sad how lazy the man was at the time and he could have easily be a top ten world baller at the time. Di Pearl was that good.
I hope this audience gets to understand why this story also reflects on the reason people like Craig Butler, Leone Bailey and others don’t rely on the approval of the JFF to act. Im sorry for the local players…
No Walter Boyd wasn't a lazy football player. I use to watch him play for Galaxy in Clarendon. I never saw him live in England but I saw few play off games with him on Skysport. He work hard for Swansea.
Not knocking him because we aaallll make mistakes. Who really knows the reason, sometimes it's way deeper than we think when it's broken down by a professional psychologist or something. But not only did Walter's behavior might have resulted in him potentially loosing millions in lucrative football contracts but I think it also prevented other aspiring soccer players from reaching similar goals that Walter threw away.
True first I have to agree with u his own short comings just like one from Linstead Garfield Reid .,Oral most of the time is the fools that r around them
Oral you know me I played for Jamaica in the same time while Jeffrey Maxwell and mutty Scott was the coaches I had to go for him down in the scream over nanivill ,for him just to be on the team he is skillful but lazy 😮 let the truth be told carl Brown was going to leaving out as he was not coming to training as he should
@@OralTraceyMaverick also, tell ppl to hit the Notification Bell when they subscribe to ur channel..as that can make a huge difference how/when/if they see ur videos
Oral Tracey mi kno dat Long time..a deceplin Mashup walterboyd and the fool fool ja support behind him..I cried when I c Walter fallow ignorant ja ppl and demolished his legacy..skill with no fatness is nat a complete package and the upset Rena Seymour..
In a game where physical conditioning is essential, Boyd resents the very engine for top class performance. This worked well in JA context because sub-standard reporting and undeveloped strategic thinking dominated the culture. Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce, facing daunting challenges, found away to greatness. Elaine Thompson-Herah found the way, too. But Boyd, a mediocre player, who cannot show any sustainable dominance is considered to possess exemplary talent. Rene Simoes, with a totally different concept, decided not to take Boyd to France. Arguably, Boyd's appearance at France '98 was not without government intervention and administrative dealing! In other words, he did not make the team through the eyes of Rene Simoes who knows what greatness looks like. Vinicius Jr. scored a goal in the Champions League last week. I ask anyone to show me any run from deep down field where Boyd scored a similar goal. Yet Vinicius's effort is expected from his manager. Boyd, at no time, possessed this kind of heart, skill and drive. Understandably, he rightfully has no regrets, for regret is for those who valued him above and beyond his capacity.
Maverick he was also one of the players that the JFF had denied of an opportunity to make it in football I remember a Santos player very gifted sportsman by the name Peter Marston he was also good at cricket I think Marston and Dago Gordon both make century in the headly cup final for Vere technical hight School I think there was a problem with Marston and the JFF and he didn't get the opportunity to go to Germany to take up a the offer I think the coach had make for him
If the JFF had supported his release I think he would have made the adjustments since in his hearth he felt he belonged in the higher leagues. If he had gone to Watford after they bench him for a couple game the pearliness would have come out. No current players in the team Jamaican born or England born is half as good as the PEARL. During the troubles times I remembered someone had said the Pearl will wake up one morning and he would be 45 years old and no longer can play. I guess he is at that years of regrets now.
Alas, Walter "Blacka Pearl" Boyd is the epitome of the maxim: "Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude."
Maverick, deh vid yah....deep. Dat part about how di JFF crush his chance of playing for Watford....had me. I felt the heartbreak 💔 for him. I too was critical of him about his indiscipline during the Simoes era but that Watford story was a soft spot for me.

B🔥🔥M,,,I hear about this man, put I never see him really play,,but I hear GREAT things about him 🤔One bless oral.
I want to hear this interview with you and Walter Boyd
It was done on Hitz FM last Friday. There's a way to re-listen, which I think is on one spot media.

I felt that Walter would not tell the truth, and he would do what many prima donna do - blame the Federation or coach for every little nick or wart - something they could never do in established football cultures.

Blacka Perl was the man in the late 90s in discipline caused him alot tho
Thanks for sharing maverick and at this time I know the black pearl have some much regrets...

Exactly. He could have learnt true professionalism and discipline there and could have translated all that to the national team after … but such is life
It is also possible that he would have gotten cut for being lazy. I agree he deserved the chance but the JFF could not lie either.
@ point taken, however presuming that had happened our conversation would be certainly backed up by facts now.
Hope other athletes from any discipline see this interview & learn from it. You never too big or talented to train & be disciplined to your craft.

Well is a good thing many of the youths after him knew better

He wasn't able to deliver himself. When you cant do that you become short when you face challenges.

Squandered talent
You need to interview him
Watford John Barnes club before Liverpool with Luther
He should mentor young ballers what not to do and what to dedicate themselves to put into practice
Opinion matters but the fact is Walter Boyd was the most talented footballer in Jamaica history
WHERE IS HE NOW ?
No Walter Boyd wasn't a lazy football player. I use to watch him play for Galaxy in Clarendon. I never saw him live in England but I saw few play off games with him on Skysport. He work hard for Swansea.
JFF convinced him to terminate his contract with Colorado fox.
Walter blacka the black pearl, no football had the skill no player had
Not knocking him because we aaallll make mistakes. Who really knows the reason, sometimes it's way deeper than we think when it's broken down by a professional psychologist or something. But not only did Walter's behavior might have resulted in him potentially loosing millions in lucrative football contracts but I think it also prevented other aspiring soccer players from reaching similar goals that Walter threw away.
True first I have to agree with u his own short comings just like one from Linstead Garfield Reid .,Oral most of the time is the fools that r around them

Vinicius Jr. scored a goal in the Champions League last week. I ask anyone to show me any run from deep down field where Boyd scored a similar goal. Yet Vinicius's effort is expected from his manager. Boyd, at no time, possessed this kind of heart, skill and drive. Understandably, he rightfully has no regrets, for regret is for those who valued him above and beyond his capacity.
Maverick he was also one of the players that the JFF had denied of an opportunity to make it in football I remember a Santos player very gifted sportsman by the name Peter Marston he was also good at cricket I think Marston and Dago Gordon both make century in the headly cup final for Vere technical hight School I think there was a problem with Marston and the JFF and he didn't get the opportunity to go to Germany to take up a the offer I think the coach had make for him
Talent without WORK is nothing..
If the JFF had supported his release I think he would have made the adjustments since in his hearth he felt he belonged in the higher leagues. If he had gone to Watford after they bench him for a couple game the pearliness would have come out. No current players in the team Jamaican born or England born is half as good as the PEARL. During the troubles times I remembered someone had said the Pearl will wake up one morning and he would be 45 years old and no longer can play. I guess he is at that years of regrets now.
Just a bit like Ronaldinho
