Golden B Promo honest, Thats BULL!

who is Strum??? come on now

I'm sure that's what De La Hoya is trying to do. You're definitely right on that one, SturmRules.

How would he screw Sturm? Sturm is becoming wasted talent due to people not wanting to fight him. I like Sturm a lot but someone has to fight this man he deserves another shot...I mean he did beat the Golden Boy and still cant come up with a credible opponent. exactly DLH doesnt want sturm winning jack cause of how it would make him look

NYC-This may be the gameplan of GBP to see how great they are, but when all of the other promotional companies are gone they will turn evil, GBP is the Walmart of Boxing...It's true Lou is possibly one of the best and most truthful promoters out their. Di Bella may be one of the best but he is still a promoter. Isn't that like saying that the WBC is one of the best sanctioning bodies. ;) Oh, and I forget you can't hear tone in a post, but I was being sarcastic. You are right they are trying to be the Wal-mart of boxing. The only difference is they will be "rolling back" the percentage the non-GBP boxer gets and having options on their fights.

i hope oscar doesnt screw over sturm somehow How would he screw Sturm? Sturm is becoming wasted talent due to people not wanting to fight him.

i hope oscar doesnt screw over sturm somehow

taylor wants 3 Mill for htis fight Give it to him, but make sure he is fighting on a major ppv with De la hoya carrying the name.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! GBP is asking for options? Are you sure? You must be pretty connected to the inner workings of the Taylor camp to make a statment like that. I strongly believe that GBP will be a difference maker in the world of boxing in the positive sense. Hopefully they will take the lead in bringing back boxing to network TV and take care of the fighters. Like Oscar said, "The boxers are my boss". I hope that remains the case. Give GBP a chance before jumping all over them. I am holding out hope though that GBP does turn out to be a positive force. But I'm not holding my breath. The above sarcasm was meant for humourous effect. But if this is indeed true and they are asking for options they are doing the same crap that everyone else is doing, trying to make as much money as possible. You can't do that and look out for all your boxers best interests at the same time. ESPECIALLY when one of the partners has a say in who he gets to fight through his own promotional agency.

Give GBP a chance before jumping all over them. Nope its true, I was going to make a thread about it myself. Oscar stated time and time again they will not treat fighters unfairly and taking advantage over them and then I read the article where GBP sat down with DBE and discussed a possible matchup. GBP says they will give Taylor 1.5 million dollars to fight Hopkins. IF they would receive options. Didnt GBP claim they would never do this? However, Taylor wants this fight bad and said he would gladly sign if they gave him more money. I imagine Hopkins would get paid 3 million about the same he got for Eastman and Taylor could get 2. If thats the case it would be wise for GBP to shell out the extra money now and rape him later type deal, why not they would have already did it in the first deal to fight Hopkins right? Id pony up the dough and give Taylor his demands...If he beat Hopkins imagine what a rematch would be like? Plus a possible bout with Trinidad.....Bad move on GBP side if they dont meet Taylors demands.

No, no, no. You're getting Oscar and Bernard all wrong. They are doing this to protect the fighters from being with other promotional organizations that would rip them off. Once they see how loved and cared for they are they will realize that they want to stay with Golden Boy. How cynical some people can be!

what are you talking about??? A lot of people sign deals like that. And if B-Hop gave Taylor a chance and lost it would be only fair if Taylor gave him a rematch.
