    what a ******!

    king and arum have promoted mega cards all over the world..... the "2 biggest ppvs" you speak of are inflated by todays standards....there are millions more people able to watch a ppv as well as order it. at one time only 10% of the country had cable, much less PPV :rofl

    Well he was never fully on board with GB right?

    It wasnt like he was a GB stable fighter.

    Floyd is nearly on the way out anyway, plus he promotes himself.
    Mayweather promotions might finally take off now.

    Be interesting to see whether Floyd would work with 50 though.

    I don't really know how much trouble Floyd will have securing a September fight, I imagine since he's boxing's biggest cashcow it won't be as difficult as some people are making it out to be.

    WHat I find to be most interesting with this breakup between DLH and Richard is a lot of the fighters on the GBP fight cards are actually AL Haymon fighters and don't hold a contract exclusively with GBP. Let's see exactly how big GBP's stable really is when the dust settles and when AL Haymon fighters decide to cut ties with GBP in the same manner that Mayweather did.

    That is key I think, where the GB fighters that are promoted by Haymon go.

    How's that, half the fighters ain't even signed to GBP. Which is the biggest issue of this whole thing.

    Oscar is smart, because this opens up the door for Showtime fighters to face Pacquiao, Marquez or Bradley. Mayweather is shook of Pacquiao so this is no surprise.

    Sug3 posts something and immediately after boxing_master comments. Not hard to figure this one out. Stop hiding behind an Alt! Make those dumb comments yourself.

    They're not the same guy at all. Sug has been around for a long time and has always been a big Floyd fan.
