    All Oscar has is basically Canelo and Mares, Hopkins is the swing vote, and it seems Hopkins is closer to Richard Shaeffer.

    Victor Ortiz signed with Haymon, and now even Collazo.
    herrera had to sign to get the garcia fight.

      Oscar needs to gain control over his company. He needs to work with other promoters and make as many fights as possible. Many times regular, non PPV fights turn into FOTYs and PPVs turned out to be boring as hell. Example was the last Mayweather fight. All fights went to the distance. The main event was even boring as hell.

            Yup, Imagine all the awesome fights if Top rank and golden boy co promoted?

            Man boxing would be booming, so many damn good matches.

            and Richard hates Arum, its not Arum, everyone keeps blaming Arum but can you blame the guy for not doing business with Richard or Haymon again after they talked **** or screwed him over twice? first time shame on you second time shame on me, Arum is being defensive because he was too kind to a snake. Richard was being a kiss ass to Arum when Floyd retired, than when floyd came back Richard started talking mad **** about Arum and Pac. Because he got power again with Floyd, this is why Golden Boy never got a profit, they lost money Richard over paid Floyd and now is going to jump ship leaving Oscar in the red. its messed up, think about it, Floyd wasn't going to fight again, Richard convinced Oscar to pay off Floyds 6. 8 million in back taxes before the Marquez fight, and Rich and Haymon have been in cahoots ever since.

            Richard created the greedy Floyd, he paid him way too much money out of desperation this is why Arum said Richard doesn't know how to promote and its true its why Golden boy never turned a profit.

            Can anyone here explain how they can profit form a Mayweather fight? There is no way they make any significant profit if they are paying Floyd over 40 million and 20 million up front guarantee, no way in hell.

              I was talking about not only TR, but others like 50 cent, Dibella and others. The rift between 50 cent and team Haymon/Schaefer is ******. Gamboa left Arum, for example, so why is he not getting fights with Showtime?

                  The only ones who profit are Mayweather and the networks. Golden Boy is going to be defunct, Richard is ready to jump ship and leave oscar in the red. Arum even warned about this years ago saying they overpaid Floyd. Floyd said hey if these guys are willing to pay me this much ill just keep asking for more.

                      Steve Kim said Gbp only got like a 2m flat fee from mayweather fights.
