[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

As part of their coverage of National Hispanic Heritage Month, Yahoo Finance put a spotlight on Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya.

Richard Schaefer is a snake. All of those fighters that he signed to Golden Boy while he was working for Golden Boy he ended up signing them to Al Haymon.

Let's also not forget it was Oscar who found and signed Canelo.

Plus, Schaefer has a Promotional company now and most people don't even know the name of it!

Richard Schaefer is responsible for PBC success

Richar Schaefer was fired 6 years ago after conspiring with Al Haymon to destroy GBP. Oscar saved GBP, was able to get the biggest contract in boxing and created new superstars in the process. Oscar was blackmailed for millions because of those photos in fishnets and after being humiliated is still moving forward and winning. I would argue PBC is nothing without Richard Schaefer.

The biggest contract in boxing? I’d say that is pale compared to what Floyd made in just TWO fights (PAC and Connor).

I don’t doubt that Oscar is doing what’s good for him and GBP but Oscar is no different from Bob. Probably even worse
when you look at the fact that Oscar left Bob Cuz he was getting cheated.
Two, Oscar’s biggest fights in terms of promotional was his fighters against Floyd yet he just keeps trashing Floyd.

He can be the best promoter if only he had some sense of justice

Where was all this passion when he let his promotional company go down the drain a few years ago?
