Comments Thread For: Richard Schaefer Officially Departs From Golden Boy

[Build That Wall]

Al Haymon And Schaefer might start their own promotional company and they would probably be more successful.

The bottom line is this:

Whatever Haymon, Richard, Floyd make themselves....how does GBP do? Does it make a profit? Has Showtime deal with Haymon boxers and Floyd backfired financially?

I don't know any of that. Which logic says will dictate the future of Richard and post Richard GBP.

Why? Have they made a profit for Showtime?

That's the bottom line for investors

Let him go start Richard Shaefer promotions and see how much success he has without Oscar's name attached to it...

[brick wall]

cmon how is this actually good? Floyd hates arum, hates HBO, hates GBP this isnt good fo anyone, just another company to block the best fights

so what if floyd hates everybody? why is that not good for anyone? you're acting like he's that influential. he's a couple of fights away from retirement...get his balls out of your mouth.

[-MEGA-]

Haymon and Shaefer are gonna create a boxing league. Similiar to the UFC. Thats my guess

So is this where the Schaefer era ends, and where the Larry's threats to Oscar on twitter begins?

I truly hope this was sarcasm.......

Oh no he means it. he's in tears taking down his Richard and Haymon posters right now, sobbing over his TV dinner

GBP clearly has the edge over TR right now. Their PPV's are performing better, they have a WAY more deeper stable of fighters etc etc

Yeah i'm sure there were some internal issues at Golden Boy but things should of been worked out, i don't believe Richard should of been fired because he did a great job.

They should of left Arum and TR with no option but to bend over to GBP will, now Oscar is doing the opposite by firing Arum's enemy..

I don't think this is about Top Rank to be honest.

Someone clear this up for me, as an adviser, what exactly is Al Haymon allowed to do with the fighters he has signed from GoldenBoy?

He can't promote them due to the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act. What exactly can Haymon do with these guys if they're under a promotional contract with GoldenBoy.
