Offering a contract that TR lawyers won't let anybody in their right mind sign is not an indication GBP is trying to make the fight. Specifically answer my points. You can't without destroying yours. Simple as that. What is going on here is Rigo's team now has a contract to sign. GBP is simply trying to make publicity off of the situation. Schaefer admitted Mares turned down $1 mill to fight Donaire. The so called counter proposal is debunked by a simple read through. Again, rebut the points I made about the indemnity and confidentiality clauses. You simply can't.
What the **** difference does it make? The idea as it pertains to this discussion is simple...there's one side that is working to make this fight happen, there's one that is not, as I said to Hermit...not sure why this is such a point of contention. GBP has gone above and beyond to demonstrate they are A. on the up and up in this instance and B. Are serious about making this fight happen, not sure how that can be argued.
This is what I'm lost on.. The argument changes each time GBP proves Top Rank is lying or wrong.. I'm confused on what's even being argued anymore? I mean the above is pretty obvious to everyone right? I'm not too knowledgeable on legal contracts, but doesn't it say right under what you're talking about the same for GBP? How is it only binding to TR? :huh I thought they didn't even get the contract and that was the argument? They violated it showing it to everyone because TR is acting like it doesn't exist.. So if they didn't show it, TR would say it didn't exist and you'd believe it. Now that they do show it, you and TR will claim it's a breach of confidentiality and that's why it's no fight... Do you not see this as a way for TR to get out of the fight but still try to blame GBP?
This is getting stupid now. I'm no lawyer but I simply can't see TR's legal staff allowing TR to enter into this so called contract. Turns out I was right in the first place when I said I thought this might mean the Rigo deal was close at hand. Seen that Rigo has the contract and is expected to sign. Diversion by GBP trying to spin this in their favor. Nothing more, nothing less.
read page 8...promoter (gbp) can terminate the fight for whatever reason and they will have no obligation. is it fair for gbp to terminate the fight a week or 3 days before and nonito not getting compensated??
Hope this fight gets made before Donaire moves up to 126 lbs. The fight should have happened at 118 lbs when Mares won the Show Time Bantamweight Tournament, and Donaire was rated number 1 in the division.
Is this not part of a usual boxing contract? If not, can you show us why/examples? If you can't, why keep picking at this point if you're unsure on what you're talking about?
OK. You got me on this point because you were one of the few to actually read it. I stopped short when I read the first half of that. But, it looks like my original point holds. GBP did this because the Rigo fight was close to being a done deal and they wanted to make hay. Seen that Rigo has the contract and is expected to sign. Also, without dates and such, this is still not a contract TR could sign. To open ended.
Dude...you don't know **** from shinola about boxing contracts and/or their respective validity, so your "refute my points" argument is lip service as you don't know anymore about it than I do. If there are major holes in the contract, the contract language, and/or the respective terms...there are people who are far more educated on such matters and will point them out. That being said, you still haven't addressed what the **** you're trying to prove, or what your interest is in taking the position you have. You are essentially defending Donaire/his team not fighting the best in the division, based on a rudimentary (at best) understanding of a contract that has been requested and in turn presented to Top Rank execs.
What makes it look like your original point holds? Your own opinion on the matter? How did you come to the conclusion GBP did it because the Rigo fight was close, when they've been seeking it out for a while now? You didn't respond to the last part of my post.. So if they didn't show it, TR would say it didn't exist and you'd believe it. Now that they do show it, you and TR will claim it's a breach of confidentiality and that's why it's no fight... Do you not see this as a way for TR to get out of the fight but still try to blame GBP?
i don't know if this is part of the usual contract or not, but the way i read it is, this opens the door for gbp to cancel the bout for whatever reason and they have no obligation to pay donaire.
