Comments Thread For: Mayweather: De La Hoya Jealous, Fed Me GBP Fighters

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Recently retired Floyd Mayweather Jr. was on the receiving-end of a scathing open letter from Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya, who criticized the unbeaten fighter's career in the most recent edition of Playboy.

Golden Boy had co-promoted the majority of Mayweather's fights since 2007 - when De La Hoya and Mayweather traded punches in a fight that generated a record-breaking 2.4 million pay-per-view buys. The record stood until May 2nd of this year, when Mayweather's fight with Manny Pacquiao exploded with 4.6 million buys on pay-per-view.

Have to agree with some of what he says.

If Oscar was one of my lead guys he would be gone already.

Genaro Hernandez didn't take banned substances

I wouldn't want him as my promoter either.

He seems out of his depth.

What Oscar said was wrong but and some truth that people were thinking.
I actually do not think Mayweather is a great promoter, his fighters are only known by hardcore fight fans, Canelo is known well more than all of the TMT as someone is retired.
Mayweather will be remembered for MONEY

More ether from Floyd. I forgot Oscar wasn't even at the canelo fight lol

I think Mayweather has a valid point, it's hard to trust a guy who fits so well in fishnets.....

More whining from Floyd no one put a gun to his head to take those fights he needs to stop.. He was the most powerful boxer and could have taken any fight .. he knew exactly where Canelo was so he's just as much as to blame as Oscar no one just feeds you opponents he did have the right of refusal ..This guys is just as childish as Oscar these days ..And it shows because he keeps attacking Oscar personally seems the jealousy comes from him more so ..

I think its best ODLH just promote his fighters and keep Floyd's name out his mouth....Floyd been trashing him for like a decade, its getting pretty sad and obvious that he is envious of Floyd

1) He beat Oscar in the Ring
2)He is not with Goldenboy like other conquerors Hopkins and Mosley
3) He beat guys Oscar couldn't, Manny and Shane
4) He took his place as the cash cow and cut business ties when Shaafer left
5) Dominated every golden boy fighter they put in front of him
6) I think Oscar is afraid if he doesn't keep it together, TMT will take GB spot as a promotional superpower
