Comments Thread For: Richard Schaefer Officially Departs From Golden Boy

[redmyth79]

There is no indication of a non compete clause. Not sure it would even apply in this instance. I'm sure Schaefer is free to do as he pleases. But I honestly think he's done with boxing.

Wrong, Oscar already said there was. It would hold up as long as his contract was good for and a year after. Then he should be free.
Dont know what they agreed to but time will tell us.
As far as Floyd and hayman go, why do u think they went through GBP? Not because Richard, it was because Oscar was the biggest draw.
GBP is still the biggest with or without Richard!

If Haymon/Floyd start a new shop there's going to be a major bidding war for the unsigned fighters. Interesting times ahead.

Yes, like I said, this isn't good for anyone.

Well, you really didnt say that and that was my point. You just mentioned floyd not getting along with anybody like you were having a panic attack or something.

Schaefer is still a shareholder with GBP. He's not going to compete with his own company.

He can easily my sell hisbsharws if he chooses to. But like I said, I honestly think he's just done with boxing.

Bring on pacquiao vs maidana

And matthysse vs provodnikov

Marquez vs Porter

not interested in your opinion like that..do you have another source besides forbes?

Forbes really that bad at predicting thou, just like they said Trump was only worth 2.4 billion, turns out he was worth almost 10.

Then he will be subject to a noncompete. Unless GBP's lawyers are idiots. And I agree he's done.

Props to Schaefer! **** that cokehead, cross-dressin', mother****er! Who was holding it down while he was in rehab? I hope Schaefer, B-Hop, Floyd, and Haymon do something real big. Arum is a snake! There's a reason Oscar, Floyd, and Cotto went solo, and they all did better without him. There's a reason Rigo, Chavez, and Mikey Garcia are all trying to leave or renegotiate. Arum is poison.

actually Cotto is back with TR. TR is even helping him with his promotional company and they are co promoting several fighters. He likes TR more than gbp and Mikey has hashed his differences out and will be fighting again soon under the TR banner and now Oscar wants to work with arum again so it must not be that bad.

Showtime made major gains in the last fiscal year. Now tell me why any investor would be against that? U aren't making sense.

I honestly don't know exact numbers.

Was this gain on the basis of boxing or the increased quality in their dramas and related ads?

Initial profit is always the easier. Sustainability is the key. I doubt Showtime is hinging is financial health on the basis of.boxing.

Showtime has to regret signing Floyd to such a crazy deal.

Floyd not doing what they expected in buys threw a major wrench into their plans.

2/3 flops so far; although they sold WELL Showtime didn't profit. Espinoza is the next to get canned.

Im kinda on the fence about this because to my knowledge more people have been subscribing to showtime due to Floyd and GBP. So that in turn is where the profit is at.
