Comments Thread For: De La Hoya on Which Fighters are Signed To Golden Boy

Oscar should see out this years and cross back over to hbo. Hbo is clearly the bigger network. They draw more viewers than showtime. Showtime are pulling out all sorts of money but yet they cant compete. Stevenson on hbo was drawing a million plus on showtime not even 700k.

The other Haymon fighters are screwed. Where are they going to go now? Money Mayweather's TMT is not even licensed. He's one of the top Forbes' wealthiest people but can't even commit to a full pledged promotional company. Then Haymon is banned by HBO. Frankly, these people's future is grim. What will happen if Haymon can't provide fights for them? What will happen to their families?

They have no choice but to go with GBP. Otherwise, their families will starve to death.

I'm not sure how anyone could be mad at Oscar.. All he wants is the flexibility to negotiate with all the other promotions in boxing in order to make the fights that the fans want to see. If you're mad at Oscar for that then you should also be mad at Lou Dibella, Cathy Duva and pretty much every other promotion. Haymon was/is the guy that's trying to monopolize the sport into a UFC like machine, and that's why he's become a pariah amongst almost all the major boxing promotions.

Oscar can both work with HBO and Showtime. Haymon with his buddy Espinoza only. I really don't know the mentality of these Haymon fanatics.

Schaefer left GBP, but you somehow want to blame Floyd and Haymon. Floyd and Haymon have made Oscar millions if not billions. Oscar has not EVER ran GBP and yet somehow you want to heap praise on him for begging TR to do business. He has no clue and you know it. You are sympathetic to the boxer while the businessman has no experience running the business.

"mentality of these Haymon fanatics"? it's simple, out of bob arum, oscar de la hoya and Al Haymon it's clear who has the best stable of fighters.

I'm not going to call it a failure as of now, but this move by Oscar is starting to look more and more ****** by the day.

Richard and Oscar should of just worked out their differences but Oscar let his feelings get in the way!

and LOL at the gullible people that think a license is going to stop Richard and Al Haymon.

It's Maywether Promotions btw, TMT is just the crew and movement.

Schaefer and Haymon royally fucked GBP

Mayweather promotions doesn't have a promotional license, rumor is its because Nevada won't issue one because of Floyd's criminal background
