    Mayweather created Mayweather promotions, so then why is he...

    mayweather has his own promotion company Mayweather Promotions so then why is he using Golden Boy promotions Richard Schaefer to negotiate his deals with pacquiao?
    doesnt mayweather promotions have their own negotiators?

    what is the purpose of having al haymon and leonard ellerbe?

    He's not licensed for whatever reasons to promote boxing events in LV. Not sure about other states though. He does promote music concerts nationwide though.

    From my understanding, GBP is promoting/co-promoting Floyd's next few fights under an agreement they made when GBP fronted Floyd $10mil prior to the Marquez bout to handle his tax issues.

      because Bob Arum hates negotiating with Mayweather; enter GBP.

        I herd on this forum, mayweather is just a FREE AGENT, he uses any promoter he wants for each fight, the promotion company just so happens to be Golden Boy.

        Im sure in all reality that Floyd is secretly signed with Golden Boy. Who else gives these kind of pay days?

          Think of an independent record label who wants Major Distribution. They don't want to fork all to promote or press the music more than having a bigger machine help you do it and both break bread.

          Hence: GBP + Mayweather Promotions.

            I guess GBP promotes for free then since Floyd claims he keeps 100% of what he makes!

                because they make a lot of Money together, it is like a partnership
