Rumor Mill Coming Out Of Golden Boy Promotions Headquarters in Los Angeles:
- Mayweather has been very disappointed in the way GBP handled the negotiations with Top Rank. Apparently, GBP did not handle Arum's pressure-laden negotiations very well (according to Mayweather) that made Floyd look really bad in the press after the Top Rank negotiation deadline passed.
- Mayweather has met with Don King to see what he can do for Floyd. Floyd is looking for Don King to REBUILD his reputation IMMEDIATELY. Expect Don King to represent Floyd in some capacity at least initially, and then dump GBP at a later time.
- Al Haymon, Floyd’s business adviser, was upset about the Mayweather-King meeting. Haymon flew to Florida to meet with Floyd and advise him to sign any agreement with King because of Mayweather’s current agreement with GBP.
- GBP is very upset with Floyd’s recent actions especially his meeting with Don King. GBP feels that they have done everything they could for Mayweather to negotiate a fight with Pacquiao. However, Floyd’s lack of interest in the recent negotiations is confirming the belief that he simply does not want to fight Pacquiao. In the end, GBP has spent a lot of money and resources promoting Mayweather while not getting any return on their investment. All they have in their hands right now is a huge defamation lawsuit from Pacquiao GBP is expected to lose in the courts.
- GBP feels that Mayweather’s desire to work with Don King is not to negotiate a fight. Instead, Don King will represent Mayweather to rebuild his reputation and find a “legitimate” way to dodge Pacquiao.
