Well, it's back to the drawing board for GBP they should be thinking of getting contracts extensions on Khan, Matthysse and LSC, if that means spending some money on them them, then so be it. They also need to start scouting young talent to their stable.

It's now a 2nd tier Promo company with 1 star fighter.
Im a Oscar hater and predicted this exact scenario when all this was first announced but I like the Lemiux signing and they have a couple decent mid range fighters and some prospects but I don't think GB will ever be the same.

This roster is bad but everything else is good
Can get dates with both HBO and SHO
Willing to work with Top Rank and Haymon (this might change if Schaefer gets involved)
Just got paid a settlement up to $50 million
Gets paid a flat fee if any of Haymon's fighters want to fight on their cards
Has the 3rd (or 4th) biggest draw (US ratings) in Canelo in his prime while Floyd and Pac have 1-2 years left. This could change cuz Canelo has to learn to speak english to become a truly big superstar and guys like GGG, JCC Jr and Kovalev are doing huge ratings.

I don't think Showtime will be a option in the future after Oscar got all emotional and brought Canelo over to HBO.
And I think the same goes for Haymon fighters once ( Khan, Matthysse, Santa Cruz, ) I think I read somewhere they each only have 1 fight left, Once they get out of their contracts I don't think you'll see Haymon fighters on GB cards.

Originally posted by Rip Chudd View PostI like the signing of Lemieux today, good job on GBP. I don't think Oscar has it in him to make other fighters sign just for a shot at Canelo, kinda like Arum was doing just for people like Mosley and Marquez to fight Manny. He just doesn't seem like that good of a businessman but he's got time to improve. I'm rooting for him. I just don't see Canelo going that much further then he already is as far as star power.
BHop can talk fighters into signing with GBP cuz all boxers respect him and he has first hand storys about how Haymon tried to pull a fast one on him with Stevenson

I don't think TMT is ready for that yet as of now.
And SHO got screwed more by Floyd and Al Haymon than GBP
BHOP went over to HBO cuz Haymon was trying to screw him and Floyd/Haymon lost SHO big money, not Oscar
SHO needs GBP desperately cuz NBC is haymons top priority now
