So Jim Lampley is sure that the Cold War isn't going to end anytime soon.

But see, this is an incorrect myth.

Broner and Maidana are both signed with Al-Haymon and they fought each other. Collazo and Khan are also both signed to Haymon, and they fought each other. Molina and Matthysse, both with Haymon. Lara and Canelo are both with Golden Boy and they ARE fighting each other soon. You guys like to follow your imaginations rather than reality.

But, but... would you not have preferred Broner vs Matthysse? Or Khan vs Broner? Give me your best logic.

What Haymon and Richard have done to odlh is worse than anything arums ever done to him.

exactly. being the ceo of a company and actively working against it is one of the slimiest things you can do. guess we shouldn't expect less from a swiss banker and a stalker/tranny fan

It is not just a promotional houses dug into their trenches. They are only the initial cause of the problem. We also have the Networks dug in, and they don't have a reason to reverse their stances.

Take a look at the recent GGG vs Quillin talks. GGG's people sent in an offer to Golden Boy, but golden boy countered with a bidding process to see where the fight gets aired. I guarantee you HBO and Showtime will balk at such a thing. They will both stick to their ground. We are unfortunately stuck with fighters who are destined to not only promotional barriers, but also glued to network branding.

To me this is currently the bigger issue. You hit the nail on the head.

Schaefer is probably waiting for Oscar's disappearance again before making Broner's next fight or any huge fight involving their "stars". Otherwise, it's hard to loot the company when the boss is around. ;-) Schaefer wants Herrera vs Molina next. He can always recycle Judah and Malignaggi.

Oscar needs to make a big move.

That seems to be the case. Schaefer is not working for GBP. He's working for Schaefer and Haymon, and hopes that Hoya disappears. Fact that Schaefer is more interested in making Molina vs Herrera is very telling.
