Do You Guys Think GBP Has Mistreated Floyd?

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Remember when Tony Montana said, "Me? I always tell the truth...even when I lie." Don King is a promoter. He always lies, even when he's telling the truth. Mayweather may have expressed his dislike for GBP. Or not. King is just doing his job. It might've gotten a few more heads to tune in to Alexander-Kotelnik. It might've gotten him closer to Floyd (which is what that tirade was all about). Try not to read the lines so much, sometimes it's best to read between them. King's words (indentured servant, ******-nese, BLACK...) are just that. Words.

nah...i'm not trying to read too much into it...hence the simple 'yes or no' question...but i guess that was too much for some people...all good

Any guy who is making millions of dollars to fight is hardly getting mistreated.

He fights makes millions and takes vacations when he wants, its hard to see where he is getting mistreated.

it was mayweather who approached King. On the surface, it looks like mayweather wants someone else to handle his future fights. But after all that has happened, Mayweather has not confirmed the claimed 4 fight 100M offer. Could it be a genius ploy on the part of Mayweather to cause the three: Arum, King, and Schaeffer/GBP to argue, a marketing gimmick to up his money value some more? And isn't the 4 fight 100M offer the result? GBP's reaction is amusing, as it sounds like they are a puppy whose tail just got stepped on.

I didn't realize this thread was actually an interrogation. Perhaps if I was being accused of a crime then a simple yes or no might suffice (even then...NOT). But you asked a question about a boxing topic. Far be it from me - an avid fan - to broaden the scope a bit.

lololololololol

Just ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with that question. Ok, King said it. So wait, now we have to answer as if we don't know that it was King who said it? I guess so.

broadened it indeed


and LOL @ interrogation


'you hungry? yes or no?'

'stop interrogating me'

So wait Floyd fans shouldnt endorse the move if they think it brings Pac-May closer? GBP failed several times why not give King a shot.



The fuck?

floyd was never a goldenboy fighter for starters....

there obviously is something going on where floyd isnt happy or hes just trying to get more money out of the situtaion rather he signs with king or not..its like a woman walking around with another man right in front of her mans face to get more out of him..

He was Larry


He was not binded by a contract. but he did 4 fights that was promoted by Golden Boy. You can say he's not an employee but a consultant

[Castor_Troy]

no, not that i know of.

But i hope pacquiao fans don't start to bring this up now. Because if you're a mayweaather fan, pacquiao fan, or just plain want to see mayweather-pacquiao then the best thing that can happen is king and mayweather working together with arum to make the damn fight happen. If gbp and arum can't get it done, and king and arum say they can get it done in a couple of hours then i don't care who the hell is promoting mayweather as long the fight happens. I don't really care about the details between gbp and mayweather, i want to hear that mayweather pacquiao are going to fight. That's all everybody really wants, i hope so.

yes.......

he "feels" disrespected cause they were forcing him to fight pacquiao at an agreement in which arum and haymon reached through greenburg. Floyd didn't want to fight, his promoters want him to. Basically, even his promoters got tired of him being a ***** and maybe tried to convince him in a manner in which floyd found insulting. The bottom line here is floyd is a *****.
