Also, if it weren't for Schaefer, there would be no GBP period.
there already was a gbp before schaefer. what a crackhead thing to say.
all oscar did was change the name of his company when he hired schaefer.
oscar was not only the biggest thing in boxing, but he transcended boxing,
and was on every tv and radio show in dozens of countries almost daily.
oscar was already promoting the biggest cards in boxing: his own.
he also had endorsement deals and a substantial investment portfolio,
which is how schaefer originally came onto the scene. if oscar wanted
to make any card the biggest card in boxing, all he needed to do was
fight on it, and nobody in boxing could draw more attention than oscar
to any card just by going out and talking about it on any show he felt
like going on in spanish or english any time he wanted.
who the phuque is schaefer in boxing? he mainly handled oscar's investment
portfolio and he completely royally screwed up the contract situation, which
was his main job in boxing, and then tried to conspire with haymon to steal
the company. he's lucky he's not in jail.
pbc is a tv series on different networks and haymon is a manager who uses
different regional promoters to stage the events. what value does schaefer
add to that scenario? haymon already has his fighters signed and doesn't
need promoters contracts. schaefer came into boxing with a guarantee
from oscar that his salary would match his earning from his career in finance.
schaefer could go back and earn that much in finance or maybe more.
what does he have to offer anyone in boxing at this point that will earn
him that kind of salary? he bit the hand that fed him and you would have
to have rocks in your head to hire that guy and he will never get paid in
boxing what he could get paid in his former career. he can say whatever
he wants to say, but talk is just talk and if nobody asked him any more
questions he would stop loitering.
