Comments Thread For: Golden Boy Team Responds To Floyd Mayweather's Latest Tirade

[sterilizer]

Floyd has the hots for men that wear suits!

]
“It’s good to work with guys like Richard Schaefer and Al Haymon, guys that’s drug free, guys that wear suits, guys that dress like men,” Mayweather told Fighthype.com. “

Note: since the "drag" thing is such a cheap and classless shot (not to mention witless and creativity-less criticism, since it's a remark already made by tons of other macho-minded brainless apes), here is a cheap shot. So De La Hoya team, feel free to use this to answer this brain-challenged subject (Mayweather Jr.)

SUGGESTED REPLY TO THE DRAG COMMENT:

So, Floyd, it seems you have a big crush on guys that wear suits right? Are you in love with Schaefer, Haymon, and guys like Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith on "Men In Black"???

NO WONDER why you have complaints of violence against no less than seven different women including your own wife... woman-beater (synonym to super-coward, si.ssy abusive coward), and a TOTAL COWARD in the ring, never ever engaging the opponent, always hugging him (and wanting to kiss him too, I bet). Running away like a scared woman or an abused wife...

And, of course, what is the BY FAR highest percentage of Floyd's admirers? MEN. BY FAR. A coward, admired mostly by men. Great combination.

What was and still is BY FAR the highest percentage of Oscar's fans? WOMEN, BY FAR. For two reasons, mostly:
1) HE ALWAYS FOUGHT LIKE A MAN. HE NEVER EVER REFUSED TO ENGAGE THE OPPONENT AND TRADE PUNCHES ALL FIGHT LONG. EVEN WHEN BEING KILLED BY THE LIKES OF MANNY.
2) His looks. Enough said. Floyd calls himself "pretty boy" but let's be real, the guy is ugly, period. DLH is the exact opposite looks-wise.

Sorry I got so damn emotional here. As you can see, I totally despise the woman-beater, ring-coward big-mouthed "champion" to no end. And now that he is throwing classless cheap shots against Oscar, I do even more.

Floyd admirers-worshipers, you may start throwing stones at me now. And exert violence over me too, your-idol-style. Yes this s a woman writing here, so start the ape-like criticism. That will help me identify who are the people with some brain cells here and which ones are just prejudiced close-minded monkeys whose opinions are not worth a dime.

40 shows, but what percent actually made it to TV? Of those televised, how many were on that estrella nonsense that no one actually has. You've seen all the PBC fights that Floyd did, not to mention those that weren't broadcast. GBP has 80 fighters signed, but you only know about 5. Thats not trending upward.

Dude you grasping. Almost all were televised. Either by HBO, PPV, FS1, FoxDeportes, Estrella TV and others. At least 20-30 were on HBO or Fox Affiliate the Estrella deal didn't kick off till like Aug or Sept.

And now Estrella doesn't count?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estrella_TV

As of October 2015, Estrella TV has seven owned-and-operated stations, and current and pending affiliation agreements with 45 additional television stations encompassing 49 states and the District of Columbia (including stations in 40 of the 50 largest Nielsen markets);[43][44] counting only its broadcast stations, the network has an estimated national reach of 39.37% of all households in the United States (or 123,009,970 Americans with at least one television set).

"Estrella TV made major inroads in approaching viewership parity with Univision, Telemundo and Telefutura... Estrella TV ranked in fourth place in total viewers among all Hispanic broadcast networks"

http://www.hearst.com/newsroom/estrella-tv

"Since its 2009 launch, Estrella TV has established itself as a top U.S. Hispanic television network. Now covering nearly 80 percent of the Hispanic TV households in America."


It's in 80 percent of Hispanic homes and is 4th in Hispanic viewers and in 123,009,970 homes total in America. If you live in hispanic area you have this channel. And their avg viewership is HIGHER then PBC is pulling on FS1 right now. Trust me Mayweather Promotions wish they had a deal with Estrella TV or any network for that matter. And like I pointed out earlier Haymon is rarely using them for promotions out of the 100 or so cards put out last year you could count the ones he trusted with Mayweather Promotions on 1 hand.

please don't be that ******.

Oscar wears women's clothing, abuses drugs, disowns most of his children, beats on people, and ****s women, in addition to whatever other dealings that Top Rank worked the boxing media to be quiet about.

You've named one thing (a de****able act, but an act that you can basically hold against many of the sport's top names over the last 40 years and longer, which doesn't get mentioned); please point to at least one other thing that you can hold against Floyd.

It seems like you took my post as if Oscar does nothing wrong. If my post implied that, then that is incorrect. I agree with almost everything you said about Oscar (I say most because you missed saying that he's a phoney/fake).

What disturbs me is that because Floyd doesn't do anything else bad besides beat women, and sport's top names do it too, that it's not that bad.

Just so I can understand where you're coming from...you a Floyd fan i'm guessing?

[Rath]

Difference is I didn't go on about Floyd atoning for it, as if he even needs to. It is what it is, life goes on. Can't really say that about **** can you.

Oscar - ****s women, beats men up

Floyd - beats women up, hugs men.


honestly i can equate 3 ****s to 7 beat up women.

both were violence against women.

both were traumatic experiences for the victims.

both should be punished for their crimes, apologize to their victims and compensate them well.

Dude you sound foolish golden boy promotions won't be around in a few years? They were promoter of the year in 2015 despite you laughably trying to give Schaefer all the credit well he been gone for 2 years now and in that time Oscar has made Canelo the biggest star in boxing today and they have back to back promoter of the year awards. And they are loaded with top young fighters. Like 80% of their roster is 25 or younger. And Canelo is leaving them? He just re-signed with golden boy a few months ago. As for Schaefer he ain't responsible for jack. Golden Boy made a quantum leap over night as a promoter because of Oscars name and fanbase. Schaefer was a dime a dozen business man hired to run the day to day. Had nothing to do with boxing before oscar. Hopkins and Barrera, Mosley all signed to align with oscar who was the golden goose in the early 2000s. HBO gave golden boy fight cards for his fighters that other promoters couldnt get because they wanted to keep oscar happy and on HBO not because of schaefer.

Perfect example Canelo originally signed to golden boy to be with oscar was a fan of his had nothing to do with schaefer and he's on record stating this so did many other Latino fighters they signed over the last decade. Oscar name and image is the logo not schaefer and that's what attracted people to the company. Early 2000s he could of literally hired anyone and the company was going to be successful he was the cash cow of the sport. Oscar put out a album that same time and it got a grammy nomination and that fool cant even sing. They replaced schaefer and got a new man running the day to day and golden boy is still number 1 promoter. You giving that two face snake too much credit. And we not even a month in the year and trying to say they won't be in the hunt for promoter of the year? You said the same dumb crap last year. Keep praying on their downfall one year you might hit the lottery but I doubt it's anytime soon.

In the meantime call me when Mayweather promotions makes the leap from 3rd rate promoter to the big times. Call me when they have one significant draw signed under Mayweather promotions. They are not even in the same league as golden boy.

Canelo Alvarez, the only marketable fighter under the ****ing banner, already has his own promotional company, already directly negotiates his TV deal in Mexico, and already has mainlined his own relationship with HBO; the moment Oscar relapses again, Canelo likely brings Eric Gomez into his fold (to handle the US logistics for the fight) and boots Golden Boy.

Beyond that, are you really trying to argue that Golden Boy Promotions was the best company last year? PBC kicked Golden Boy's, and basically every other company sans maybe Matchroom Sport, face in (only reason that 'PBC' didn'y win was because it's a series and the success that PBC was able to put forwad was broken up across 4-5 promotional companies).

Oscar De La Hoya was always an obvious figurehead, there's no way around that; Schaefer took Oscar's image and leveraged that into bringing additional financial backers into the company (who left the moment that Schaefer left), bringing AEG and their venues into the fold (who left the moment that Schaefer left), bringing broader TV outlets to the fold (who left the moment that Schaefer left), and establishing one of the deepest and broadest talent rosters under one promotional banner (who largely left before Schaefer was even all the way out).

Call me when Golden Boy gets back to running regular HBO dates again.

[Scipio2009]

First of all Golden Boy by far was the best promotion in 2015. They actually put fights on that fans wanted too see. So yeah they will win Promoter of the Year for 2015. Only 1 month into 2016 lets see what happens. Again it's about quality with them not quantity.

Yes Oscar has done countless interviews talking about his past and bringing up his wrong doings. It's called youtube and the internet why don't you use them some time? Where as Money May has yet to say anything about his past. But it is what it is.

Your Jack, Smith, and Ashley points are a complete and utter joke. None of those dudes deserved title shots. I guess Jack deserved his belt but at the time he didn't deserve a shot because he beat absolutely no body prior to Dirrell. They all are riding that Mayweather wave without doing anything in the ring to prove there worthy of a title shot.

You want honesty about Oscar's company? Schaffer and Al Haymon went behind Oscar's back to screw him and rob him out of a lot of talent that weren't signed to Golden Boy. That's truth. I don't care how you dress it up at the end of the day the majority if not all the PBC Champions had Golden Boy to Thank for putting there money behind them. Let's keep it 100.

Not saying Canelo's success is all Oscar because that would be a lie. But Oscar has helped Canelo greatly and if Canelo felt any other way towards Oscar he would have left Golden Boy just like the others did. Instead he renewed his contract with Golden Boy and he right now is the most marketable and the biggest name in the sport.

The names I mentioned have actual credence. Maybe if actually watch boxing you would know who they were.

Please name 5 five fight cards that Golden Boy put on in 2015 that were memorable, for "the sport's top promotional company". gtfoh

Oscar screwed Oscar; try and spin it however you want, but that's reality. After being strung out on bender after bender, Oscar finally decided to sober up and try to be a promoter for the first time in a decade, Schaefer and Haymon didn't trust Oscar's business acumen, so they took their money and assets and went elsewhere with their business, leaving the recovering addict with whatever few folks still willing to risk their careers on the backs of an addict who relapsed on the eve of the company's biggest event.

Yet you defend Floyd for beating, pointing a gun, imprisoning and threatening gang **** on MULTIPLE women.

Oscar has at least apologized and atoned for his crimes. Floyd and you people are still in denial.





Typical Floyd fan - "But that's aiight doe, he my ni66a"


His own kid called him a coward.

Please post a link, to anything where Oscar apologizes for raping that 15-year old girl in Mexico, for clarity of information's sake. lol

[Scipio2009]

the only thing oscar is beating floyd at, is having a much more successful promotional company. i doubt mayweather promotions is ever as big as Golden Boy. espcially with PBC in the mix. floyd said mayweather promotions is the future, well we'll see

Mayweather Promotions handles the PBC shows for Vegas, in addition to the cards for their own fighters; whether Mayweather Promotions ever gets as big as pre-exodus Golden Boy only time can tell. Badou Jack-Chavez Jr is already in the cue for Mayweather Promotions (if Jack gets through the fight with a W, Mayweather Promotions is likely to be the co-promoter for a Jack-Degale unification fight). Tank Davis is coming along, Michael Hunter is flashing talent, and Andrew Tabiti/Kevin Newman II/Ronald Gavril/'Memphis' Miller are all young guys who are flashing ability. Floyd gets one of those guys to break through and Mayweather Promotions launches.

[Scipio2009]

If you think golden boy has only 1 draw you are a complete idiot. LMAO When HBO re-aired their top fights of 2015 in Dec, 6 of the 9 fights were all golden boy. 3 of the top 5 candidates for fight of the year award were golden boy. And the run away fight of the year was golden boy fight (vargas vs muria).

That's how they were number 1 promoter. Mayweather promotions is a joke compared to golden boy.

Please name ANY other draws that Golden Boy has, just for argument's sake.

[Scipio2009]

Pay for that title? Every major boxing outlet voted them promoter of the year you think Golden Boy is paying off ESPN, Sports Illustrated and Ring Magazine for promoter of the year? And Canelo did more then Mayweather did in any of his fights the last what 2-3 years MINUS Pacquaio. Canelo did double what Mayweather did a month earlier with Berto and more then he did in his 2 fights with Maidana and Guerrero. Only fight on Showtime that we know for a fact cracked 1 mil was....his fight with Canelo. All other non Pacquaio fights did less then Canelo. You trying too hard Canelo is the new cash cow in boxing and had a monster year first with his PPVs in Nov and his record shattering 2.2mil live viewers against Kirkland the highest live viewers on HBO in about a decade.

... you do know that Oscar De La Hoya owns Ring Magazine, right? lol

Beyond that, both Maidana fights did over 900k PPV buys, so there's that.
