Do You Guys Think GBP Has Mistreated Floyd?

[Deep Blue 1997]

simple question...


Floyd's talkin to DKP because he feels 'disrespected' or what not...do you guys really think that Floyd's been dissed to the level where he should leave?


seems like none of Floyd's fans have complained before but now they seem to be fully endorsing King as the new promoter for the vacationing one

well ODLH has constantly been ****ting on him (cept the recent post fight interviews)

they did a good job with him,

but he may be better off w/ Don King (and the in-house fighting GBP has done w/ Floyd might end)

I think it's crystal clear and quite simple actually.
Don King says "...they would offer him $40 million. But if he were with me, it would be $100 million."
It's simply about doubling up what he could potentially make for the biggest fight of his career.

Mistreat is a harsh word since he's made the most money under the sport having GBP promote his fight's, but I wouldn't exactly say Oscar and Floyd like each other. They just put up with each other, because they are both making money.

how could anyone know if GBP possibly misstreated floyd or not. You are mostlikely not an insider, so you have no idea what goes on behind closed doors.

no argument with that point...it makes business sense...the only thing i wanted to gauge was whether he was mistreated or not...again, before Dazed comes in and starts talkin about Floyd's laryngitis, these are words i read from King...not Floyd

yes i know...later on im gonna make a thread titled 'GBP Insiders, Please Explain' this one is just for us regular fight fans

This is a cool thread. I'm use to seeing GBP being dissed around here. Now that King(Floyd hasn't even spoken a word) is talking about how GBP has mistreated Floyd, the same GBP ****ters are now in aide of GBP.

It's like Pacquiao leaving Arum to let's say like Dibella or some one GBP can deal with better. And then me after all the **** I talked about Top Rank/Bob Arum, start ****ting on Pacquiao for leaving Top Rank to some one that can actually make the fight(Mayweather-Pacquiao) much easier to make.

I mean, come on. Get a grip on yourselves

[sicko]

Schaefer hasn't but Oscar has in the past, maybe it was just Oscar going against him to kinda BUILD UP the fight or what but Oscar is always Anti-Mayweather leading up to the fight but to be fair Oscar is the first to give him Credit after his fights

it might be some other things that is happening that we don't know about, if WORKING with Don King can get the Mayweather vs Pacman fight done then to hell with GBP lol

[sicko]

Floyd claimed HBO was racist everytime they put pressure on him to fight a top welterweight. Now Golden Boy is tired of waiting, they have invested alot money including fronting millions to pay back taxes. Mayweather does not want the meaningful and challenging fights Golden Boy wants so expect alot more claims from Mayweather about GB as he gets closer to King.

Meaningful Challenge? didn't he just fight Mosley? WTF are you talking about?

[cortdawg25]

oh yeah, i remember when floyd claimed hbo was full of racists, despite the fact that they overpaid his sorry ass for years while fighting the n'dou's of the world.

What a bag of liquid **** he is.

i think that was the commentating crew he was talking about. Cause he called steward an uncle tom as well at that time. I don't think he was referring to hbo as a whole.
