    GBP is fine.
    Haymon and his pbc staple of fighters constitutes probably half of the decent pro fights. There are over 200 fighters. Whether or not GBP is still making a profit has nothing to do with them wishing they had more fighters. Think how much money Haymon has made off his over 200 fighters. That is all money that GBP and hbo should be getting part of.

    GBP definitely wishes it had pbc fighters. That is why they have tried to sign pbc fighters. They just recently tried to persuade Errol Spence and Mikey Garcia to sign with GBP.

    PBC definitely wishes it had Canelo and Crawford. TR wishes they had Mikey, the Charlos, Stevenson, Thurman, Spence, etc. etc. And GBP wishes it had someone besides Canelo. PBC definitely has the best stable of fighters right now. They may not have all the best, but Haymon does seem to have about half the contenders and champs in boxing.

    Every single pbc fight is money that gbp should be getting a piece of. Over the past 5 years, that is equivalent to a very large fortune. gbp may be fine, and they do have the biggest $$$ draw in Canelo. But to think Oscar and GBP don't want millions upon millions of dollars is extremely ignorant.

      So fail
      Outside of Mexicans is Canelo really that popular?
      I don’t think so.
      What’s the most he has sold outside of a Mayweather or GGG Ppv?

        If Golden Boy still had Haymon fighters it wouldn't be Golden Boy reallllllly cuz Oscar is Golden Boy.

        Maybe Oscar wishes he'd have sold part of his company to them or come to some middle ground or something, but idk if that was doable or not for both sides. I think Haymon's deal + Oscar's deal with both be better off if they'd have found a way to work together.

          He just had a top 10-ish PPV of all time. Don't matter who's buying it, all Mexicans or not, he's making himself & GBP money.

            AJ is the face of Boxing right now...not Canelo. But that not even the point, how can a promotional company attract marquee billing with only one marquee fighter? What if Canelo gets hurt? What would GB do for a marquee billing then?

            At least Matchroom has the Special One beside AJ.

              How has PBC been a colossal failure? i watched a fight with them less than 24 hours ago and they looked fine to me. And I'm not saying GB is in any real trouble, I'm looking for marquee names on their roster who generate water cooler talk beside Canelo?

                  Golden boy never actually had them.. That was part of the problem.
