Golden Boy & Haymon officially working together!

So with Haymon fighters continuing to make fights with GBP makes me think all is well between the 2 parties. Like a number of fighters, Porter isn't with GBP, but is still fighting Brook on their card.
The question is how long will this continue?

as long as they need gbp's promotional license

Of course he is working with Golden Boy since almost all the fighters he advises are signed with Golden Boy.

From what I've read most of them are not signed with Golden Boy. Maybe they'll just wait till fighters contracts run out and move them to Schaefer promotions lol.

I'm sure it's business as usual until this plays all the way out in court. At that time I bet some of these guys are court ordered to sign with gbp and we will say an exodus of the other fighters

In a couple of months time you will see Richard "The Snake" Schaefer pull out his own promotions company like 'Greedy Fat Basterd Promotions' and thats when things will get complicated

This^^^^

Neither Haymon, Shaefer, or Floyd are licensed to promote fights in Vegas therefore they will need GBP for the meantime.

Everything was already in motion when Schaefer was there. Lets wait to see some August and September fights scheduled on Golden Boy with Haymon guys to make this statement

What many posters are failing to realize is that Haymon is just a manager. He's not a promoter. So even if fighters have a managerial contract with Haymon they are still free to sign with whichever promoter they please.

One question that I've had and I've never seen answered is if Porter is only signed with Al Haymon and is fighting on a GBP card, does he pay GBP a fee like Floyd does? Otherwise they are promoting him for free and would be losing money. I can understand them doing it before when they thought he was signed to them but now that its out there that alot of GBP fighters aren't even signed to them, whats in it for GBP?

Its not fair to have to pay a manager and pay a promoter to fight on a card.
