I know Canelo is, but who else. If a new cold war starts and bob/de la hoya work together i'm interested to know which of the GBP fighters will be able to work with HBO and top rank.
Which fighters are signed/aligned with shaefer/haymon?
Which ones are signed/aligned with GBP and Oscar?
What was he doing though? what benefit was it to him not to have the fighters signed to GBP. I don't really get what he was up to.
Well, we don't know what his end game plan is, most believe he wants to either:
1: Force hoya out of the company or force him into a buyout.
2: leave the company and start a new one with Al Haymon.
A boxing promotional company is only as good it's leverage is, and the only real worth they have is there contracts woth fighters , tv networks, and sponsorships, GBP has almost no long term contracts with fighters, minimum tv deals, and only a few sponsors.
GBP, under Richards leadership has basically handed everything they have to Al Haymon and his fighters. Every dollar, All the tv time, all there resources pretty much have gone to Haymon. What have gotten back out of it? Pretty much, nothing.
It's completely impossible Richard wasn't in on this with Haymon. There has never been a situation where a company allowed fighters who weren't signed to them, to fight on there cards, especially during network time.
The tragic part of this is Oscar didn't even know when he was asked.
Pretty messed up if someone asks you about an important part of your business and you don't have a clue.
I guess though now he has sobered up so maybe he is starting to know this.
"It's a Eric Gomez question" :lol1:

Why do you think, hes been colluding with Haymon because they know Oscars been away but ultimately owns the company.
Smh, only a matter of time before ODH tale Richard to court for this. It really is out of control, he basically handed away all of companies fighters and all of there leverage, and gave almost all of haymons fighters a free ride while receiving almost nothing in return.
Richie boy could def end up in jail for this, although it's doubtful.

Keith Thurman and Shawn Porter are free agents, both signed to Haymon.
Mauricio Herrera is signed to Golden Boy, not with Haymon.
Is Khan really a free agent too?
I wasn't aware that Bhop was friends with Haymon. He's had disputes with every other figure head in boxing I'll be surprised if he's friends with him
He said it in his post fight interview of the Shumenov fight. He said he's close friends with Al Haymon and "My loyalty is with Richard Schaefer".
I think Canelo and Mares are the only notable names, but someone posted a pic of Mares in a TMT so I don't know but Ponce, Soto and a couple other are but their all mid range talent.
If Oscar decides to go alone and not use Haymon fighters he's basically going to have to start all over again.
The conspiracy theory in me believes that's why Canelo / Lara(Haymon) was made so quickly because Canelo doesn't have that many opponents but if Lara wins convincingly that'll hurt Canelos stock leaving Oscar with not much to move forward.
Oscar got played like a fiddle in this situation but he has no one to blame But himself.
Victoria is with Haymon too. Canelo is the only guy that is clearly with Oscar, since Mares is close to signing with Haymon, B-Hop is a close friend of Haymon and Richard, Ponce is close to saying good bye. Canelo has said several times that he and his manager Reynoso are with Oscar 1000% and rumor has it (in mexico) that the reynosos and Canelo had a little disagreement with Richard in their last meeting.
So yo go figure it

Haymon is an advisor (manager), and GBP is a Promotion.
ya i know but people are always saying that some fighters are signed directly with him and have no actual contract with GBP
