Comments Thread For: Golden Boy's Future on The Shoulders of Internal Dispute

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Rick Reeno - For the last few weeks, the biggest story within the boxing industry has been the internal rift within Golden Boy Promotions.

There were once the closest of friends, but now Richard Schaefer and Oscar De La Hoya are no longer seeing eye to eye regarding the future of their company.

Schaefer, the CEO, has been more or less running the company for several years and building their brand into a lucrative powerhouse within the sport.

While Schaefer did his best to run the company - De La Hoya, the company President and major equity shareholder, has unfortunately battled personal demons. At the tail-end of his career, De La Hoya made worldwide headlines when a Russian stripper took photos of him wearing a wig, makeup and fishnet stockings. Following his retirement in 2008, there were several other scandals connected with drugs, hookers and alcohol abuse.

De La Hoya is currently going through rehab, for the second time, to finally close the door on those demons. [Click Here To Read More]

This dude is talking about loyalty and respect but he obviously schemed to move fighters from GBP to haymon?

Schafer and haymon gonna get in a lot of trouble over greed..... Floyd the dummy/ his own boss has to answer to these two snakes....

Boxing is become like a soap opera we have divas like mayweather and cotto and villians like arum. Fck all these guys stopping the best fights from happening some should just take over all boxers and force them to fight each other like in the ufc

[Drunk Punch]

They should split the business in two.

Schaeffer gets the fighters and sets up mega fights with Top Rank.

De La Hoya gets some pocket money for blow, hookers and pink panties.

It's getting old. Just go your separate ways. If oscar wants to step up and take control of his company,it's not gonna work with the banker regardless because they have different views on where they want to go with Gbp.
