Comments Thread For: Schaefer Rips Hatton CEO Over Mishandling Martin Murray

[HughJass]

if true murray needs to have a word , he can't be passing by fights like this to often.

[Weebler I]

such insight into the situation~
Seriously... what're we supposed to take from that?
It's still one sided
Hopefully Hatton will chime in

Yeah, it's not much of a comeback or explanation.

Why expect little wee Elf Hatton to be smart? No schooling and in way over his wee head in promoting boxing? Brit fighters are not being promoted correctly and are hampered by inept promoters. Hatton is a small time carnival promoter.

okay "fastblack", it's about time you took another mod-enforced holiday wouldn't you say?

[TooSweet]

I wouldn't mind seeing Quillen and Murray throw down.

[Hitman932]

Ultimately when Murray announces a fight we will know who is full of it.

This reeks of Tomasz Adamek turning down title eliminator fights for "better opportunities" only to turn around and fight Dominic Guinn in a low budget pointless fight.

[pugilistprophet1994]

Murray and Quillin should both want this fight. Murray gets more exposure and a title shot, Qullin will face a top level fighter. ****ing promoters.

[daggum]

i'm sure the deal was just awful and golden boy would have options for murray if he wins. so essentially they would be stealing murrray if he wins and if he loses his purse was probably garbage. typical promoting.

Britain has no top boxing promoters

So sad Britain has terrible promoters who hurt the British/Scot/wales fighters. Small time clowns trying to promote and doing a terrible job. Not fair to the fighters.

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Yeah.

Here is his response...

A wise man once told me never to waste time by arguing with an idiot! #youknowwhoyouare

How is that a response? He tweeted that 24 hours ago and we posted our story 5 hours ago.

This is one side of the story. What were the terms of the deal? Quillin's side asking for too much of the pie?

Seriously. Let's see what part of the deal was so objectionable to Team Murray.

[deanrw]

Who knows what GBP were offering. They low-balled Rosado big time. The offer was laughable.
