    How Come Golden Boy is all up in the mix with Mayweather Pac fight????

    Bob Arum is Pac's Promoter....Floyd claims he has no promoter that he calls the shots......

    so how and or why does Golden Boy have a piece of this fight??? just an honest question....anyone care to explain???


    This is what got me thinking about this....


    Before Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys in 1989 and became one of the best-known owners in the NFL, he dabbled in boxing promotion, putting on a card in Little Rock, Ark., in the mid-1980s.

    Now, 20-plus years later, Jones has his sights set on one a bit bigger -- the March 13 HBO PPV megafight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr., the nearly finalized and much-anticipated showdown that many expect to shatter the numerous revenue and pay-per-view records set by Mayweather's 2007 fight with Oscar De La Hoya.

    Jones wants to be part of it. He is pushing promoters Bob Arum of Top Rank and Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy hard to bring the fight to Cowboys Stadium, the new $1.2 billion state-of-the-art facility.

    Because Floyd does not want to deal with Arum so he employed Schaeffer to represent him , its not hard to figure out ,,, business is business .

            Because gbp signed Floyd to a promotional contract. They will co-promote all floyds fights.

              It's kind of funny that Floyd needs Golden Boy to represent him.

              Why can't someone from Mayweather Promotions Deal with Arum and cut out Golden Boy?

                because mayweather promotions holds no weight in the industry. they're not even a license promoter. name a fight other than floyds that they've "promoted" in the last two years???

                mayweather promotions supposedly has been putting on concerts, etc. maybe they're cheaper to do than fights. who knows?

                  cuz gbp is his promoter. Haymon and ellerbe are just managers not promoters. Just like someone from mp promotions can't cut out top rank.
