LOL @ Floyd being a promoter. All he knows how to do is promote himself on spanish holidays against spanish fighters, oooh he's a rocket scientist of promotions huh?

so does this mean that floyd won't fight Golden Boy fighters either? what's he gonna do, fight Al Haymon's guys that are not tied to GBP....if there even are any of note?

and to me, Schaefer saying, "i have a strong interest in the continued success of the company..." is just him reaffirming like, "no, that bytch ass De La Hoya did NOT fire me fyi...".......but i would kinda doubt that they'll still do business together...right?

maybe not. we'll see...

mayweather has no promoter's license...mayweather promotions are not even licensed to promote in the state where he fights all the time..and as willy said floyd can promote himself..hes not going to promote anybody..hell the little stable of fighters he has...half of them can't even keep themselves clean lol...mayweather promotions is a joke outside of floyd


I'm pretty sure Mayweather Promotions has had entire cards on Shobox without GBP involved...so they must have a license

nope....if so they would have been listed on nsac's site as having one...go take a look at their list..its no problem however for them to get one in nevada..fill out their form and pay a fee...but all the stuff that goes into being a promoter..the nitty gritty was handled by golden boy for sure

If Schaefer is still a shareholder he would have to sell his shares before starting a rival boxing promotion company or joining Mayweather Promotions.
Floyd ending his working relationship with GBP is a short-term hit but Floyd is basically on a 2 year retirement tour. And lets not act like Mayweather Promotions is any good at putting on blockbuster fight cards or even low level fight cards based on them struggle cards he has been doing. So they are more than likely going to end up looking for a co-promoter for the remainder of his Showtime deal. Might even probably go back to the same fight-by-fight deal they already had with GBP.
And even though Haymon has a lot if GBP's fighters signed if the fighters have standing contracts with GBP there is nothing Haymon can do to void those contracts.
So the entire landscape is going to be in a state of flux for a while because there are too many entanglements that can't be easily cast aside.

Also, if it can be proven that Schaeffer was purposely not signing Haymon fighters to promotional contracts with GBP as part of some secret deal with Haymon to start a rival promotional company then it could be seen as Schaeffer shirking his fiduciary responsibilities to GBP which would probably end up with Oscar suing the fukk out if Schaeffer.
