    With DLH as the face, a swiss banker doing the math and a 'G' Harvard Grad making business moves, GBP has a pretty tight set up it seems.

    Didn't know about him. But looked him up. Yeah, he's called a substantial owner also.

    he has always been the money man.

    if he does stop backing them up, gbp would be in some serious trouble.

    More than likely he just deals with Schaefer instead of DLH.

    I'm going to shut your mouth one day and tell you where my father was born, 'amigo'.

    Stupid ass thread btw. Exposes you as a true ignorant **** that has no clue how an enterprise works.

    Doubt it they would just find another investor. This is business and GBP in the next 10 years will be the leading company in the sport once Arum is dead.

    Presumably a bunch of venture capitalists (like Schaefer) put the money together, gave DLH equity for his input and to be a figurehead.

    This is a full time business with real professionals running it whose sole aim is to make money. It's not run by a group of ex boxers with a Swiss banker holding a calculator in his hand saying 'zis is a gut idea Oscar, ja'. Get it right, this is a multi-billion dollar machine who will only continue to grow. You think a bunch of ex boxers with no business education can do that? Get real lads.

    doubt it...gbp would have done it, if they were capable, while they were being subsidized by hbo.

    if shaw had the sweetheart deal that gbp had, shaw production would be more formidable competitor to tr now than the dog and pony show by oscar.

    I'm sure there are excellent reasons why Oscar got himself a Swiss banking genius and not one of his boys from round the way.

    Don't doubt though, Oscar still has most of the power to call shots.
