        yeah guzman really fucked him over! I just find it funny now how he was bashing shaefer so bad and now he needs him nate's cool i guess though. I want to see him fight again against diaz or JMM.

            Business is business, Mayweather said worse things to GBP (Oscar/schafer) before he signed to fight oscar, I pretty sure whatever he said to schafer (Which i dont know) he wouldnt take it to heart.

                LOL. He wouldn't be fighting for "them", he fights for himself. HBO only give dates to 3 "fighters" companies. Thats Golden Boy (Oscar), K2 (Klitschko) and Square Ring (Jones). Anyone else needs to essentially "hire" a promoter to secure television dates. Like it or not, thats the way this business runs. Golden Boy happens to have 2 very attractive fights available in Diaz and Marquez, and unlimited access to HBO dates. That means they are definitely in a position to be the front runner. But by no means does that mean we would be able to work out a deal. It just means we wouldnt rule it out simply because Nate and Shaeffer had words.

                At the end of the day, a deal either makes sense, or it doesn't. Nate is actually in a very good position. He controls 75% of the belts in the division. So whoever we end up doing business with will have to come correct. Not to say we will outprice him, but he is certainly not in a situation where he is desperate and needs to take the first offer that comes around.

                And to the poster who asked about Guzman, that fight is a dead issue. Unless he somehow manages to get himself back into a mandatory position over the next year or 2, or decides to settle the claim from the last fight, it wont even be discussed. He's not relevant anymore.

                  so do you think shaefer doesn't have the words campbell said about him and his company in the back of his head and give nate a take it or leave it deal?

                    where else do you want him to go? besides, Campbell will be able to get fights with Marquez and Diaz much easier if he signs with GBP.

                    not his fault he wants the big fights. the only excuse Marquez had was that he didnt want to fight Campbell because of King, hes out of the picture now. make it happen, Pacquiao-Delahoya undercard, Marquez vs. Campbell.

                      yeah right we would never be so lucky to have two great championship bouts on one card especially under a dlh fight.
