Schaefer operating as the "Dana White" for PBC, largely being the unifying public face to the media for the operation, is a fa bigger platform than leading Mayweather Promotions or even setting out on building his own promotional company.
Schaefer's best attribute was that he was a guy that folks 1)liked doing business with and 2)trusted to do business right; there's a reason why AEG, the financial backers, Mayweather, FS1, and even Espinoza, among others, jumped ship when Oscar forced Schaefer out.

Originally posted by IMDAZED View PostI tend to agree. He doesn't have to join Mayweather Promotions to make money with them. They can make money co-promoting or some other joint venture. But then I have to ask if he is going to come back with his own promotional company..who's in his stable? He'll promote alright but I think he comes back with a lofty, lofty position.
I think he's a slimey one he is,I could see him doing what he did to Oscar to other small promoters with promising fighters.

Anyway, yeah if he comes back it'll be as head of PBC probably.

Leonard breathing a sigh of relief while thinking about taking that ass beating from James Prince's thugs was worth it ultimately. I mean you can't fire a guy who's taken a beating for you.

I had a hard time seeing Ellerbe getting kicked to the curb before, but Slick Ricky seems to be talking about bigger things than running Mayweather Promotions so I really doubt thats a possibility now. And seems like Floyd has even taken it more upon himself to get into the promoter game more. Can't have Leonard, Floyd & Ricky all bumping heads running Mayweather Promotions.
