Mosley-Cintron in jeopardy!

Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer had this to say when asked about Boxingtalk's exclusive report Mosley-Cintron fight not being done due to several "major contractual violations" between promoter Bobby Bostick and the IBF welterweight champion. "We were very surprised to read these comments, because the fact is that the fight was confirmed to HBO and to Golden Boy by Manny Steward, who actually was very pleased he was instrumental in helping. When it did get 'done' Manny Steward told me that he's glad it's going forward and he believes Shane is going to lose the fight. I then thanked him for helping to get it done. The draft of the press release was submitted to the fighters promoter and he made some changes to it by email, and as the promoter of Mosley we can't negotiate through Cintron, so we have to negotiate with his promoter Bobby Bostick and manager Emanuel Steward. We are sorry that Kermit Cintron never had the opportunity to review this press release, but that is why he has a promoter. If there are these legal issues surrounding Cintron we need to have a talk with Shane Mosley. I have already left several messages for Bobby Bostick and we need to move swiftly to see if this fight can be saved or if we're going to have to move in another direction." Schaefer declined to comment when asked if neither Bostick, nor Steward informed him on what Steward himself described as "major contractual violations" to Boxingtalk.com last night. If Golden Boy was in the dark as it relates to these legal and contractual issues, which this scribe believes they were, Bobby Bostick Promotions and evidently Emanuel Steward have some explaining to do."
