    Abraham is facing Stieglitz sometime in the near future, right?

    Yup, AA facing Stieglitz for his WBO SMW trinket, on August 25th. It might be worth a look if I can find a stream for the Saturday afternoon fight here in the States. Some of the Brits and the other "foreigners" on the forum might be interested in this one, as well.

    At Berlin, Germany: Robert Stieglitz vs. Arthur Abraham, 12 rounds, for Stieglitz's WBO super middleweight title.

    Floyd set up a new boxing company and plans to take on GBP and Top Rank.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It will probably work, until Floyd retires or loses a fight, then it will go to shit in a hurry, Floyd and his g/f 50 cent haven't got a clue or the intelligence it takes to run a successful business.

    I agree with that first part as the money train will stay on the rails until Floyd loses or retires.

    But, this is supposedly 50 cent becoming a promoter, and he is certainly a proven success in business as is Floyd who has been promoting for years.

    Also I find 50 cent to be a lot more likeable and laid back than Floyd, who comes off as a jerk.

    50 cent is a success in business in what, the music industry? As for Floyd, he's been great at promoting himself, but he doesn't have the brains, people/management skills needed to promote others. Right now Mayweather has leverage in negotiations because he's the highest paid boxer in the sport, but as soon as he becomes inactive, the "promotional" business fizzles.
    I really believe Floyd & 50 cent are just playing grabass, and after attracting a lot of attention, the promo co. goes nowhere.
