LA Times Article - GBP Looks to Be Heading For a Split

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Wait all this time I thought Floyd ducked Manny but now when the "cold war" is over we'll get all the TR vs GBP fights now?



Pick a side people.

They stay with him then make the decision to go with Haymon or stay with GBP.

but haymon isn't a promoter, is he? so how will that work?

ODH is a recovering addict who less than a year ago had a significant relapse, so much so that he checked himself into rehab on the eve of the biggest event in the sport in many years.

Ask any recovering addict-every day is a struggle.

Where the hell was I at for this?

I dont think Oscar knows what he is doing and looking at the long-term picture

what he's doing is he's thinking about the fans. it's rare these days to see any of these big time promoters think about us.

whether this may work in his favor or not, it's at least very admirable that he's willing to put aside the promotional feud and give us fans the fights we want to see.

it's just a shame that people like schaefer are willing to continue on the cold war.

I don't think I'm above anyone. I think I'm above following the crowd. And truth is it's the internet. No1 knows who no1 is talking to. Think about that for a sec.

I find it funny how you boast about receiving an education but it took me 3 tries to try and understand wtf you were saying.

Here on NSB talking about it before the floyd v canelo fight.

It will be one year in September. I'm sure he will be better than he was. Will that be enough, who knows.

Dont kid yourself Oscar is thinking about money he doesnt give a **** ass about you or me.

So I wonder what happens to fighters that are with Al Haymon but also have a GBP contract??

I don't know how many fighters are signed to multi-fight contracts with GBP. You'd probably need to know that for a start before you could tell how turbulent things would get when it comes to match-making.

The real issues would start when a fighter's GBP contract expires. I think that in all likelihood you'd see bidding wars between Haymon's new outfit and Golden Boy as they try to tie fighters down.

That underlines the importance of investment for any new company that emerges. Even more than has been the case recently, the promotional firms would have to splash some cash. Of course that brings HBO's and Showtime's strategies into the equation as well.

Damn - Floyd's failed ppv is really starting to look like it will have a major impact on the sport.

breaking up the 2nd largest promoting company is no easy feat - floyd's ppv must have flopped even worse than i thuoght for this to happen
