Which person at GBP was Floyd Jrs. biggest "DISH RAG"?

This are some exerts from an interview with Don King from Lem Satterfield at Fanhouse:

"You know what? I'm not interested in just the Manny Pacquiao fight. I'm interested in Floyd Mayweather. What I try to do is to get him. And when I get him, everything else is included. That's why they made the mistakes. They're all into the greed. I'm not in for the greed business, I'm in for the need business.

When you get the man, then you've got everything. And I've got the man with the plan. Me and Bob Arum can pull this Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao s**t off in two seconds, you know what I'm saying. I'm talking in two shakes of a lamb's tail. It would be fitting and proper for Bob and I to work on this because we're used to what it means.

Rather than think about what it seems to be. You've got to be able deal with what is real. You've got to be able to deal with the hypocrisy in a manner that you understand. If you don't understand, then you're apprehensive. They [Mayweather's promoters] don't speak ghetto-ese like Floyd Mayweather does, do you understand? I mean, that's like hieroglyphics to them. So they may talk to the man like they're talking down to the man. Talking around the man. Or looking at the man in a condescending manner, you know what I mean? They look at him like he's an indentured servant when in actuality he's the hottest thing on the planet.

That's what it is. It's a disrespect of cultures. You must be able to respect people's cultures and to be able to know what they're thinking and feeling. You've got to be able to stand in their shoes. You've got to be able to look out of their eyeballs. Other than that, if you try to convince a man against his will, then he'll be of the same opinion still.


I happen to speak ghetto-ese because I'm one of them. Because you know what? We understand. Many people can't speak hieroglyphics, because that's what ghetto-ese is to them. They can't speak it. If you can't communicate, relate and identify, how are you going to make a deal?

You going to bombard him over the head saying you're going to make him $40 million? For that kind of money, most motherf**kers would turn a trick. But it didn't work with Floyd Mayweather. So people were like, "Floyd's got to be a goddamn fool," and, "Floyd's got to be insane."

But your manhood is worth more than $40 million. I don't talk trash, I talk cash. I understand that because I've been without. If I've learned one thing, then that's that the power of your human nature and your pride and your self-worth is worth more than money. Money is a supporter of power, and power is a creator of money.

I mean, his promoters didn't understand. They already had Bob Arum on one side with Manny Pacqauiao, and they say that they're with him, but at the same time, they don't defend him. Look how he's getting beaten up in the press. Look how he's being castigated and vilified. Nobody knows how to defend him.

Everybody's looking at him with a jaundiced eye. They're saying he's a coward, and he's a this and he's a that. They're finding all kinds of ways to make him out to be like he's the most selfish individual who has ever existed on the planet Earth when in actuality he's got a blessing from God that he has the skill and the talent that he can rise above the fray with the creme de la creme.

Floyd Mayweather has the ability to self-promote to the point where they would offer him $40 million. But if he was with me, it would be $100 million. That's the difference. In addition, he would keep his dignity and his pride intact. They treat him like he's a cow or a horse, and like he's property. But you've got to get that s**t out the way."

This is just hilarious... Mayweather made his negotiating team look like fools and Don King is saying the right things to inflate Floyd Jr's EGO even more, if that's even possible. Mayweather and Team Mayweather are totally DYSFUNCTIONAL. So if Mayweather bolts for Don King which person at Golden Boy Productions is going to have the biggest egg on his face?

 

I'm surprised that Schaefer received some votes, he didn't totally twist himself into a pretzel to please Mayweather.

I originally thought it was a tie between Dela Hoya and Mosley.

Dela Hoya for saying that the "negotiations" were really, really close". Then when Mayweather refused the fight, it left Dela Hoya really with NO WAY OUT. I mean he couldn't openly CONTRADICT his biggest client and say "Floyd Jr is wrong. We approved the contract". So instead of EMBARASSING the Pretty One, Dela Hoya took a big bite at the perverbial "**** sandwich" and said he was wrong there were no negotiations. I hope it didn't taste too shitty, Dela Hoya. It seems your man is about ready to bolt.

Next, comes Mosley. A man that had to wait so long to finally fight the Pretty One. Except, judging by Mayweather's latest actions he used Mosley just to get more money out of the public. In my opinion, Mosley was faced with a dilema. If Mosley beat Mayweather, he destroys the chance of making even more money if Pacquiao/Mayweather square off if the ring. Being a co owner of GBP he'd get two slices out of the pie, because of that judgement where GBP gets a percentage of Pacquiao fight earnings. It explains why Mosley who HURT Floyd Jr, basically gave up after the 3rd round. Can anyone say "conflict of interest"?

Now, that I think of it Mosley was Mayweather's biggest "dish rag". He went to the extreme to show his "LOVE" for the Pretty One. :hey
