They are my family. $$$ Cha ching. I love my family. $$$ Cha cha-ching. I am loyal to my family. $_$ Cha ching.

Good stuff. I'm happy for Oscar, Matthysse is one hell of a fighter. Extremely entertaining. He is mini Anakin, sort of bringing balance to the force.

Sadly though, it wll be a battle of the signings and bribery from here on out which should further create barriers and rivalry between GB and Haymon. Not good for the sport at all.

Great now if the cold war is really over and Terrance Crawford is moving up and Matthysse is the #1 contender we should get that fight next right?

Good to see. Here's to hoping Lucas regains some of that steam in 2015. GBP sure needs it at this point.

I couldn't care less who he signs with, just want to see quality fights.

[BOXEO _]

Can't wait to see Matthysse back in action!

Golden Boy is going to go on a hiring spree in in 2015.

this is good news for golden boy as much as im tired of top rank and gbp running the show i didnt want to see gbp die off. hopefully hes able get few more to sign on even if he has to over pay them the only reason i dont like it is it kinda kills the chance to see matyssee broner which at least for me is a fight i wanted to see alot

Great news. I am a fan of Matthysse and think he is making the right decision to stay with GBP, and not follow the mass exodus of "advised" cherry pickers.

Glad to see fighters showing loyalty to those who made them stars. Its rare in boxing these days. People always say why did pacquiao re sign with top rank or why did Bradley re up with top rank? Its called loyalty and especially if they are offering the same money why switch it up and potential mess up a good thing. Things are looking up for golden boy. Cold war is over, they cut ties with al haymon, and signs lemieux and mathysse. Good stuff

Did anybody expect to see Danny leaving Al Haymon's stable and join GBP?
I don't think so...

Props to Lucas!
