Does this Garcia Peterson card prove Richard was good for gbp?

What don't u understand

[King_]

Schafers gone but everyone knows it was not just him, but Haymon and Espinoza as well.


All 3 guys are/were cancers to the sport and Showtime won't be released from shackles fully until Espinoza and/or Haymon are gone too.

[King_]

I think he's implying that no1 over at GBP stands up to haymon

Neither did Schafer, he embraced him.

To all the expenses for the event including the fighters pay. Bottom line is neither HBO nor Showtime pay the fighters. And both have accepted some very crappy events this year.

So some of the Showtime money goes towards the fighters' purses. In other words, they do pay the fighters... indirectly?

Ok but Oscar was the man who was going to change it all, wasn't he?

[brick wall]

gbp is weak right now after schaefer left the company with just a few contracted fighters. how could oscar stand up to haymon with a situation like that? he doesn't really have a lot of options right now.

and besides if he's not standing up to haymon, then he's just an accessory and al is the one doing the crime...but idiots like the ts would rather focus his criticisms on the accessory than to one who did the crime.

It proves Al Haymon blows and Showtime are idiots for approving this nonsense of a card. HBO would never approve such garbage....can't see how anyone in their right mind can defend Haymon lately. All his guys are fighting retreads on the same cards instead of fighting each other. When will it end...

I can't even be mad at Golden Boy. I always laugh at those who scream "X promoter is killing the sport!" A promoter's job is to make the most money as possible, and if they can get easy fights for their fighters for big $, then they should. The only entity that's to blame is Showtime. They networks buy the fights so the responsibility ultimately falls on them.

[bojangles1987]

He was there all year and was putting together terrible cards. He was probably helping organize this one before leaving.

Matthysse/Dallas Jr.
Canelo/Josesito Lopez
Broner/Rees
Hopkins/Murat

And it was GB's insistence on Canelo-Lopez being on the same night as Chavez Jr.-Martinez that directly led to the HBO ban on Golden Boy and the escalation of the Cold War.

In fairness, though, that was supposed to be Canelo-Paul Williams, then Canelo-Ortiz, then Lopez broke Ortiz's jaw, but at that point they should have moved the card.
