    Oscar is about to get screwed over. I hope he has a solid legal team to fight for him.
    You'd have to think he'll come up second best against the Swiss banker Schaefer and the supposed most powerful man in boxing Haymon.

    He should maybe look to Arum.

      That' could help Oscar. Shelf any fighter with legalese who try to jump while still in contract with GBP

        Oscar doesn't have a clue what's going on in golden boy. It will be very interesting to see just how many of these fighters are Actuslly signed to long term deals with golden boy.

        Without that Oscar has nothing.

        I knew something was up in that company when they sent Oscar to rehab during the biggest fight in golden boy promotions history (Floyd vs canelo). We know damn well Oscar didn't choose that time to go, he was forced to go away.

          Not hard to believe. Even then Mayweather (with 50 cent) have been trying to get rid of GBP. Schaefer knows he's just a Mayweather pawn. And Schaefer is desperate of making his own PPV fights without Mayweather. Cotto snubbed his offer. The guy is broke.

            More bull**** to prevent great fights from happening.

            Just what we needed.

              And they paid Floyd a guarantee of 20 million up front? wtf is Richard thinking? Richard is ****ing Oscar over, this isn't his money so Rich doesn't care, he is going to throw Oscar under the bus soon.

                Last thing we need is these unprofessional cvnts creating further implications towards fights being made. This whole promotional set up needs a ****ing shake up and some disciplinary action needs to be taken by the boxing boards. BOXERS need to fight BOXERS **** their Promoters! Make these promoters do business or run them out of the sport.

                Rant over.

                  If this does happen De La Hoya is to blame here. He has been gone for a while and Richard has done a great job for GBP. Eric has done a great job match making. The fighters seem to like schaefer.

                  He is always at the events he tries to make the fights that we all want to see. De La Hoya wants to make peace with Arum. Schaefer has tried for years to try to make peace with that man. Now that GBP is the power house in boxing GBP doesn't need TR anymore.

                  De La Hoya is always tweeting nonsense he always talks bad about Mayweather says that this guy is going to beat him and that fighter is going to beat him. He has a lot of hate towards Mayweather but promotes his fights he should just promote and STFU. The guy looks like a fool hating all the time if that's the way he feels he needs to keep that to himself. He's a promoter GBP+TMT = Good Business. The rise and fall of GBP.

                  It's the same thing at TR with Todd Deboef and Bob Arum the fighters like Todd but its Bob Arum popping off with the mouth like De La Hoya with the Tweets Arum bashes Donaire's wife then lies about offering Cotto 13 mill.

                    Looks like Arum is right. They overpaid the fighters. GBP is in deep red ink. Personally I think Oscar is broke and will be fighting soon......

                      Thats what happens when you leave the real cash cow of boxing(HBO), go to showtime and sign floyd for WAY TOO MUCH!

                      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.
