    Exactly. I think B-Hop is trying to make sure PAC is past it, and then make the move, I'm dead serious.

    I just don't understand why B-Hop would go against the grain of what GBP is doin'. I mean, doesn't DLH tell that f**ker to shut the f**k up. Oops, wait a minute, I don't think DLH wants to be reminded of that liver shot, lmao

        I can't see Floyd ever fighting Shane, not with the potential payout with Pacquiao staring him in the face. Also, Shane is a bigger risk for Floyd. No way this fight gets made. Bernard is smoking skunk.

        That said, Floyd would get more props for fighting Shane than beating Manny. It would be a more competitive fight IMO.

          this crackhead disgrace known as Boring-Slop should not even be a partner in Golden Boy creating false rumors Im sure Richard and Oscar are asking themselves wtf did we make him a partner for?

                pac cant get away with this publicly. They will catch a lot of heat publicly if this ever happens. Fraudulent Jr. will be covered publicly if he takes on mosley v berto winner. Pac cant.

                As for Bernard Hopkins, he & shane mosley are nothing more than figure heads that dont carry any real power in Golden Boy promotions. The fact that Shane couldnt get a fight for the whole year vs golden boy promoted fighters tells you that much.

                Shane had to fight Margarito, a top rank fighter. Bernard ended up fighting kelly Pavlik, a top rank fighter. Shane & Bhop are nothing more than pawns in the GBP chess board. No real power or authority on anything.

                  pacquiaos scared ****less of the black athlete.

                    This is all bull.. there is NO way Pac tries to go to 154, he can barely make 147, he has to take catchweights... so its no way Pac goes up another weightclass, the way it seems so far, Mayweather Pac will get made.

                      Exactly right. It's very normal for the founder-that is- Oscar, to give a s,mall quantity of shares to "partners" whilst holding the vast majority himself. making sure he is the boss.

                      I'm sure it's the same for Shafer too, although he will have more "perks" written in to his contract. He is an employee, like the others.

                      AND....very likely any shares they might hold [could be only a single share, 1 share} are not voting shares.
