At first, 2013 looked like a good year for him but look at it now. Other than his rehab, most of Golden Boy's rising stars have fallen; Mares, Matthysse, Mitchel and of course Canelo all in less than a month. I wish the best for Oscar and GBP.
Why would you feel sorry for a millionare. They have the resources to be or have anything they want.
If their life is ****ed up it's nobody's fault but their own.
why would you feel sorry for somebody who isn't a millionaire?
empathy is human.
did oscar f#ck his life up on his own? yes. he also made his millions on his own, fighting everybody under the sun in the 90's and 2000's.
we don't have to excuse his behavior to feel sorry for him. the guy is too weak to stay away from drugs. that's a sad spot to be in. being poor or rich has nothing to do with his inability to stay away from cocaine and alcohol.
I don't feel sorry for him and never will! Its hard for me to feel for rich privileged people!
why? is there any reason other than jealousy to not feel empathy for wealthy people the way you'd feel for somebody who works for a living?
oscar is a completely self made man. he got to the top with talent and his looks in boxing, and in promoting he's financially backed goldenboy promotions. he's the majority shareholder in the company.
nobody on these boards will ever sniff the type of money oscar makes. that does mean we can't feel for the guy and his family. you should wish oscar the best in terms of his health. if you don't there's something wrong with you.
Mathysse? You realise Danny Garcia is with gbp too?
yah but gbp obviously was hoping for a matthysse win....there is a reason why matthysse was put on the cover of ring mag and not danny...
and schaeffer calling matthysse the next pacquiao...
exciting KO fighters = easy $$$$$ for the promoters
Oscar dressed in fishnets, cherrypicked a LW to duck Margarito, and ran like a punk from Tito in the late rds...fu ck him

Are you high? Not only have they been putting the biggest fights of the year but the fighters who lost usually lost to fighters who also make them money.
Seriously, you people are retarded. Do you really feel sorry for a man who did what he loved for so many years, makes a **** ton of money by being involved with it on the promotion level working with great young talent, and blows it all on coke? Let me tell you about my life then...

all that's important is that dude has his health in order. who gives a **** if you're rich if you're unhappy with your life and looking for terrible **** to fill that whole with.
Floyds only chance of defeat is if he snaps his leg in half or he gets caught by a helicopter punch

None of these dudes can pull off oscars blueprint because they dont have his attributes. Floyds only chance of defeat is if he snaps his leg in half or he gets caught by a helicopter punch
Now that is a blueprint
Oscar is rich still.

the checks will still clear, even @ rehab.
still, money cannot make you happy. i know it sounds crazy, but that's the truth.
oscar has serious problems with addiction. this is real life, dudes. boxing is just a sport. oscar is a man with a family. i wish him all the best.
can you even imagine the shape he must have been in to miss the biggest night of his promoting career?
get clean and come back healthy, oscar.
What in the hell are you talking about? This has been a great year for both the fans and Golden Boy! HBO is showing desperation by the moves they are making...Showtime is crapping on them!
By the way...that was an all Golden Boy card. Unless you actually think TMT is a real company, lol. Hell...Floyd is pretty much a Golden Boy fighter.
I would think GB had an excellent year. Canelo stock isnt gonna drop much, Matty is still gonna attract viewers, Garcia is the unified champ,Khan like it or not is still a huge draw, Broner and Maidiana will be a great end of the fight, Devon and kahn will be a decent scrap, keith Thurman is prob fight again...Sounds like GB is doing just fine

Golden Boy is currently having their best year ever. I think all the guys that lost are still going to be successful and popular except Mitchell. The outlook for GB is so bright right now it's ridiculous. I only feel sorry for DLH because of his drug problem.
Canelo's stock is just fine, he's still a major money generator.
Losing a fight is ok, especially when it's against the worlds best. He is 23 and Golden Boy will make crazy amounts from Canelo over the next decade...Oscar is alright.
The only sad part for Oscar is his magnificent 'Mayweather blueprint' keeps failing.
