    Exactly. Although I'm sure someone 30 years ago said the same thing.

    Most likely this.

    Probably not helping the reputation of a 'rebuilding' GBP by potentially appearing to be so vindictively litigious either. Not a good look.

    Schaefer was under contract with GBP. I think the issue is he was contractually obligated to GBP, and his leaving is breaking that contract.

    Oscar is coming off a bit ungrateful. Dude put on a lot of big great events, managed the company, made sure they stood afloat while Oscar was cross dressing in heels and sniffing coke off of dicks.

    It's a shame.

    ungrateful and ignorant.

    he doesn't get it. gbp is the number promoter in boxing. that **** didn't happen by accident...and they have very little overhead.

    I'm sorry folks but this is nothing more than a PR stunt pulled by Golden Boy. They must be really desperate over @ GBP these days..

    :lol::lol: Ungrateful... Schaefer was willingly making powerplays behind the scene with Haymon to migrate these fighters out of GBP once there was another promotional company in play, not signing them to permanent contracts.
