Many of you should go read Oscar's book if you think Richard was just a glorified bean counter.
He was Oscar's business mentor, key founding member of GBP, and turned it from a startup to a dominant promotion.
In fact Richard even took a step down from his highly lucrative finance position to go run **** at Oscar's boxing promo startup
Oscar even admits he needed to go find someone to run the biz **** because he himself was unable to do so

Originally posted by bigdunny1 View PostGB was built because of Oscars fame not Schsefer. The early years they got huge HBO dates for all their fighters because Oscar was the biggest fighter in the game and HBO wanted to keep Oscar on their station. That had nothing to do with schaefer. The fighters who over night signed to his company did so to be aligned with Oscar not because of schaefer. Hopkins, mosley, Barrera etc had no clue or cared who schaefer was at that time. Oscar could of hired anyone and it would still of been successful. At that time anything oscar touched turned gold. Dont believe me dude put out a album and it got nominated for a grammy. And everyone knows this fool cant sing!
Golden boy early success had nothing to do with schaefer and after firing him mid last year all he's done without him is win promoter of the year twice while idiots said they would fold without schaefer. Dude has always been over rated. And of course oscar has other people running his company which can be done with or without schaefer which is my point.
I see we agree, case closed, still just the face but, now he's taking the credit that someone else deserves. Who are the smart people running the company now, do you even know or do you just give credit to the name on the company.
Oscar would have opportunity's regardless but without the business mind of Schaefer he wouldn't have even been a promoter.
Still Just The Face.

Schaefer did both good and bad for Oscar. He helped build Golden Boy, but he made one big mistake in not signing the fighters to Golden Boy, instead they were actually signed to Al Haymon. (that might have been intentional)

And your an idiot if you don't think Golden Boy handled all the major aspects for the canelo/cotto PPV. Roc Nation was just along for the ride.
"De La Hoya who won Promoter of the Year in 2014 made a promise to continue to bring the best possible fights to the fans in 2015. By Oscar signing David Lemieux and resigning Lucas Matthysse in January, De La Hoya was able to keep his promise by bringing fans fights such as Lucas Matthysse vs. Ruslan Provodnikov, Canelo Alvarez vs. James Kirkland Jorge Linares vs. Kevin Mitchell, Francisco Vargas vs. Will Tomlinson, Sadam Ali vs. Francisco Santana, Humberto Soto vs. Antonio Orozco, Rocky Juárez vs. Robinson Castellanos, Hassan N’Dam vs. David Lemieux, Vyacheslav Shabranskyy vs. Paul Parker, Miguel Cotto vs. Canelo Alvarez, Lucas Matthysse vs. Viktor Postol, Takashi Miura vs. Francisco Vargas, and Saturday Luis Ortiz vs. Bryant Jennings."

Yeah sure all golden boy did is canelo vs cotto lol
None of those are big fights, you just named a whole bunch of c class fighters vs c class fighters.
And the most important fights he wasn't the lead promoter.
K2 was for golovkin vs Lemieux
Roc nation was for cotto vs canelo.
Gbp doesn't even have 2 top fighters in the same division.
And last but not least, since when does promoter of the year mean anything?
who was promoter of the year in 2005 or 2001 or 2011 or 1992?
I'm sure you don't know, because it don't matter.
if you think gbp puts on better fights now than it did when Schaefer was there you are a liar.
I'm not saying Schaefer made gbp, I'm saying gbp hasn't been the same since he left.
with Schaefer, gbp was the number 1 company
Without Schaefer, gbp is no different than K2 or main events, just a one man show. Canelo,golovkin,kovalev
