    Oscar said he wants to end the cold war this year, can he do it?

    Oscar De La Hoya ‏@OscarDeLaHoya 14h
    My boxing goal for the year is to end the "Cold War" #notgood #greatfights #fansr#1

    Is he still in Rehab?
    Even if he is...there's still the network war we got to deal with. I think if HBO sees this and the possibility of losing their fighters to Showtime, they'll start snatching up fighters with contract deals.
    Also Schaeffer said he'd never work with Arum, although Oscar is technically the owner of GBP.

    If anything, I hope if they do end the cold war, they end their exclusive deal with Showtime so we can finally get he fights we want

      Put an end to all this crap. No more GB not working with TR, or HBO not working with SHO, it's ******. I want Quillin/GGG, Kovalev/BHOP, Pac/Matthyse, Garcia/Bradley, Cruz/Rigo, Mares/Donaire, Wilder/Fury Craword/Broner, Marquez/Maidana Floyd/Sergio a lot of great matchups that we're gonna miss out on.

        lol, Arum will still keep Pac in house if the cold war continued.
        Provo is free to do what he wants, but he's loyal to HBO

          I actually do believe his intent is genuine. He is at a stage right now where you connect with what really matters in your life and all the egotistical and superficial aspects go out the window.

          I don't know if Richard will cooperate though, he seems to have been brainwashed by Floyd and is still part of the dog eat dog society we live in. Oscar is just in a different place mentally and emotionally that you can only get to by stepping away from it all and reflecting on yourself and your life.

            Would be great. But Oscar doesn't run ****. He just tweets and parties with hookers.

            Now if Richard Schaefer said that I'd be much more optimistic.

              I think he can absolutely end it. I think Arum would do business with them for sure. The only way they don't is if Floyd says he wont do business with GBP anymore if they work with Arum.

                Oscar owns GBP, Richard is his bitch. He'll make Richard wear the stockings while he does blow off his shaft

                  I hope it works out but i doubt it,,,

                  GBP has a big year of matchups with thurman, maidana, broner, floyd, canelo, etc

                  TR is on its last hurrah this year with probably:
                  rios-alvardo 3
                  bradley-manny 2
                  jmm-ruslan
                  jmm-manny 5

                  I think TR can hold out all year but come 2015 they will have absolutely no matchups left as they have milked their stable dry,, once that happens i can see the Cold War thawing, but not till 2015

                    I agree BUT I believe that slowly over time Oscar has let Richard take over. He has stepped back a little bit and Richard has become the voice and face of GB which has probably turned him into a power figure perhaps Oscar can not control anymore.

                    We'll see though. Bankers aren't fools though, if Oscar tries to step on him he will seek ways to step on Oscar.
