Floyd Parts Ways With GBP

Floyd isn't with GBP?

Now we can get Floyd vs Rios and Floyd vs Alvarado.. HOLY SHIT!!!

Haymon could still get Mayweather any fight he wants. ANY FIGHT HE (Floyd Mayweather Jr.) WANTS!

Anybody taking bets on the result being "Lots of lawsuits, fewer big fights, and lawyers making lots of money".

I have no clue what the long term future will bring with this, but for the past 30 years boxing always seems to shoot itself in the foot at the worst possible time. I wonder if this was the sound of the safety coming off...

Floyd told Manny to leave his promoter... Now Floyd left his promoter.
What they gonna do? thumb-wrestle on instagram?

Tim and Manny made the right decision. When it comes to Floyd, there are no guarantees.

your forgetting about the 35 million hes guaranteed what do you mean there is no guarantees

I didn't mean Floyd's guaranteed purses... I meant guarantees of getting a fight with Floyd even if you comply with his demands.
This split with GBP is yet another uncertainty and a set back for a mega showdown.

I'd bet my money on Schaefer aligning himself with Haymon and Floyd. Who the hell is Floyd going to fight in September???

That's Floyd's ace in the hole ... And you know what, I don't know many fighter's out there that would say no to a fight with him.

Floyd can also, start a promotional company now and hire someone to run it. But he's only fighting three more times then he retires.

What happens when the main cash cow of MP retires?
Is Haymon going to flood MP with talent to stage fights?

Floyd will find himself out in the cold within 3-5 years of retiring however things shake up, I reckon.

Question, so what happens to the last 3 Mayweather fights that are under contract with Showtime? Do those fights still go on, on Showtime?

I know those events will not be co-promoted under GBP.
