    Why Can't GBP Close An In-House Fight?

    i mean, its not like they have to deal with Arum...and Shane's willing to wear a pink ballerina outfit if that's what it takes...


    is Schaeffer getting exposed as a subpar matchmaker? if they dont get this fight done, then the blame has to be put on GBP for blowing TWO megafights



    that is all

      I think GBP has done their part and it's Floyd's turn to make his own decision. Be it Ellerbe or Haymon.

        if that's the case then, the man that claims to be his own boss needs to step up

            The drama of it is a bit overstated. I have not heard anything to say the fight isn't happening but that could always change. It really hasn't been that long. But with not too much going on rght now it seems like forever. Even some in house fights take longer than this tho. Arum is trying to put the finishing touches on Cotto Foreman. That is a fight I thought would get done in a day...

              Shane seems to be willing to agree to anything to get a big fight. If this fight dosen't happen only Floyd can be blamed. I think he will sign it, it's not like there is any better fight out there for him.

                what made GBP such a great promotional company anyway?


                they had delahoya the biggest draw in the sport. that's all it was.

                hbo and vegas bent over backwards to accomodate gbp because of who owns gbp.

                name one guy gbp made into a star?



                top rank is boxing. gbp is just taking up space.

                  Why is there always drama surrounding Mayweathers name? Can this mufuccer do anything right? He should take the professional out of his title.

                    Schaeffer is a lot of things but he ain't no gangster he can't make anyone sign anything. He has done a good job making things happean up to this point I think.

                    Floyd's main guys say everything is done and good to go so it is on him to sign no doubt.

                    I would also add that Floyd has a weird sence of drama, remember how the weight thing was treated he could just be playing a game to get extra press and let GBP know Floyd does what he wants to do when he wants to do it.

                    Floyd is not like a normal person so it is hard to predict what he would do because his logic is very different then what a normal person would think.
