yeah the big thing with GB was Oscar was like yo im a fighter I know what we go through, so I'm going be a different type of promoter im open this up to other fighters to be my partner and be a promoter with us at GB as well.Good memory.
Continuing in it’s quest to revolutionize the business of boxing promotion and put the power back in the hands of the people who have worked tirelessly to entertain legions of fight fans, Golden Boy Promotions is pleased to welcome Marco Antonio Barrera and “Sugar” Shane Mosley as equity partners in the Los Angeles-based company launched by Oscar De La Hoya in 2001.
Idk why MAB would leave GBP either. He is from a well off family & I'd think he'd be smarter with investments. Although I suppose its easier to say that in 2019 than it was to think in 2005.
Then they all left except B-Hop.Comment

GBP were negotiating the Pacquiao fight right after Mora but didn't get it done or something, so Mosley hired James Prince and started negotiating on his own.
Mosley claimed GBP were upset and just bought him out of his percentage and turned their backs on him.Comment

Shane said he got $1000 for his shares in Golden Boy when he left. Hopkins ain't over there making millions a year. I doubt he's even making 6 figuresComment
