    He cleaned house just to save his business from guys he felt were taking it from him. He has full control now and it's obvious who the real bosses were at GBP. Oscar can't manage without Richard and Al.

    Matthysse is the first nail in the coffin, no one is giving David a chance in hell against GGG, and Oscar may have to blow the budget paying off judges for Canelo against Cotto because the kid cannot hit a moving target and gasses easy.

    That company was riding on the Haymon and Mayweather hate for a while but now that Floyd is retired and Top Rank is beefing with their biggest star, GBP is headed the way of the Dodo if all of their biggest stars lose in 2015.

    Yes it's been a bad year but he still has Canelo who can right the ship with a win against Cotto.

    The canelo / cotto fight is crucial for the survival of GBP if canelo looses GBP is ruined.

    It's very profitable year for Golden Boy. And Canelo and Lemieux are still young, they can rebuild their careers.

    Oscar could always come out of retirement and bring in $$$!

    Thats insane, GPB is trying to make real fights and some people give them flak? Get real.

    When you make real, tough fights, sometimes your guy loses. So what. GBP will be fine, theres always a next man up, and plenty of talent will be wanting to sign with a promoter who can and will get them high profile HBO opportunities against live bodies in their division.

    Some of you have no foresight.

    Aside from Don King and Bob Arum, it's pretty rare for promoters to stay on top for four consecutive decades. How long did Tex Rickard, Mike Jacobs, Jack Solomons, George Parnassus, Wilfried Sauerland, Frank ******, and Sam Silverman's reigns last?

    Haymon and Shaefer are devils. When Oscar was in rehab they gutted his company. Then Al sent Richard over to the rehab facility with some documents to sign for Oscar to sell the company to Al and Richard. They approached Oscar when he was at his weakest. Oscar told Ricard to stick them up his azz and then he fired him that same day. Focking POS guys.

    Haymon is one of the worst characters in the history of the world.

    You Haymon haters are pathetic you have an unhealthy hate for the man. Oscar is a coked up fool who'd rather dress in drag and do coke than take care of business. He was asleep at the wheel and not handling his business he has no one here to blame but himslef. Putting blame on Haymon for the fall of GBP is ridiculous.

    Haymon is runnig the show now whether you like it or hate it he gets boxers money and that's what they care about and they love it the proof is in the pudding look at his roster and then look at everyone else.:deal

    I agree with you. Oscar is also to blame. He was the enabler. He should of at least had his brother Joel or that other guy from GBP keep an eye on Shaefer. Oh well whats done is done! :D
