    Haymon is running the show, Oscar is still promoting... begrudgingly. For example, the SHO card last Saturday was filled with Golden Boy fighters, Oscar decided to skip the show and instead attended the HBO card to sit next to Bob Arum even though he only had one fighter (Herrera) on the card.

    Oscar is just riding it out. He knows once he settles his mediation with Schaefer, he loses all his fighters. According to reports, it appears the settlement with Schaefer will include some Haymon fighters transferring to Oscar. When that's all said and done, don't expect to see any Top Rank or GBP fighters on SHO as long as Espinoza is running the show.

      Great haha

      Boxing is still my favorite sport aside from Baseball, but ****......it's getting ridiculous. 2014 was one of the worst years in boxing in a minute.

          Seems like some of you guys do not know what you are talking about.

          Oscar attended both the Show and HBO fights last weekend. He watched Herrera fight, and then was back in time to watch Khan and Alexander fight.

          Haymon has a different contract with different fighters. A lot of them are tied down to him. But other fighters like Khan, are free to go fight on HBO or with Top Rank, now that he is a free agent.

            I didn't see Oscar at the Khan-Alexander fight but I'll take your word for it. With that said, Khan is not free to fight for Top Rank... his advisor is Al Haymon. He can fight on HBO sure, if Haymon allows it, which he won't.

              Oscar was there for the Khan-Alexander fight he was in the crowd. But he was also at the Herrera-Benevidez fight so he must have gone during the Charlo fight or something.

                Haymon-affiliated fighters, with even tangential ties to Golden Boy, are fighting on Showtime; non-Haymon fighters tied to Golden Boy are fighting elsewhere. Hopkins is free, basically, to fight wherever he is willing to fight.
