I thought they made that clear when it was said last week that they decided to stay with GBP because they're family.
Like I posted in that other thread, You have to respect Matthysse loyalty! It was plenty of fight as well as big Paydays for him with Haymon and it is plenty of fights for him with GBP. Of course likely won't get the Paydays he was getting with Haymon but regardless it will still be good Paydays!
GBP roster is not as bad as people think! If anything the Haymon split could be a BLESSING and it allows Oscar to go out and build some new stars which the sport REALLY NEEDS!

I could be wrong or forgot but i seriously cant think of one gbp top rank fight that has been made without a belt making them and besides canelo cotto they have not even realistically entertained one. ya they may not talk **** anymore but its obvious arum had no real intention to end the cold war besides maybe a ppv fight every couple years. But then again bob arum lying to the media to try and look good is nothing new. i thought from the beginning it was pr and they have yet to prove me wrong it was just a power play trying to keep gbp and tr in power which imo is not whats good for boxing

That is six weeks away. If he doesn't know who his opponent is six weeks from a fight, that means that he will not be fighting a major contender, but a journeyman who takes the fight on a couple of weeks notice.
He is free to sign with whoever he wants, but based on the fights that are being brought to us from Al Haymon, Matthysse may end up regretting the decision to leave Haymon and sign with GBP.
Who knows, it might get postponed and put on Canelo's May 2nd undercard.
