    Why did all the big names leave GoldenBoy?

    Why did all the big names leave Golden Boy?

    I'm not talking all the fighters that jumped ship to Al Haymon when that Swiss Banker hijacked all of them,

    I'm talking all the big named fighters who were part owners/promoters: Shane Mosley, Marco Antonio Barrera, etc.?

    It seems like B-Hop the only one who stayed right?

    Why did the rest leave?

        Mosley had a falling out with Oscar after the Mosley-Mora fight. He wanted to fight Pacquiao and signed with Top Rank to get it done so there was some bad blood there. Shane and Oscar both talked some **** about each other in the media and I think Shane even dared Oscar to come out of retirement and make a third fight against him.

              This is the only one I recall.

              Was MAB a part owner too at some point? Idr that if so, but I remember thinking SSM leaving was ******.

              Think SSM was a super small minority doe cuz all he got when he left was some comically low 2k check or smaller than you'd think check. But it seems like he'd been better off staying with GBP cuz he'd likely be pulling in a salary from some bs job he could do in his sleep + be getting some of those Canelo profits whenever they split profits.

                I remember Oscar saying something like SSM beat him because he was on roids lol.

                I didnt know some beef went down after the Mora fight?

                  Now to be fair, I think Eric Gomez is extremely underrated working behind the scenes and getting stuff done for GBP and he got GBP back on track after they lost all those fighters after Schaefer and Haymon Split. Played a MAJOR Role in the Canelo/DAZN Deal. Also Robert Diaz the matchmaker for GBP, these men deserve a lot of more credit not just Oscar! They have the know how while Oscar have the NAME!

                  I just think with the Success of Mayweather, fighters no question got Smarter! You see it with the next generation of fighters like with Devin Haney being his own Boss and then instead of just signing a Promotional Deal he instead did a PARTNERSHIP with Eddie and DAZN

                  So fans should want what is best of the Fighters not the F#cking Promoter!

                    Yeah thats what im saying I think had SSM stayed he'd be getting easy checks still today like how B-Hop still does.

                    Yeah MAB was also in the rings smiling all cheesy like B-Hop and SSM was but he ended up leaving mad quick as well I think even before SSM did.
