Outside of Floyd Mayweather and outside of boxers built up by Golden Boy Promotions?
Eh, is this even a real question? David Benavidez is one of the modern greats.
After 4 years and 353 posts in this thread, the only stars that PBC has created that don’t have ties to Golden Boy are:
Tank Davis
David Benavidez (depending on whether or not you think he qualifies as a star)
And both have a lot of bum/fraudishness to their careers.
Probably unfair to say that of Benevidez but he's with PBC so fair game.
Any new potential star being groomed at PBC?

you would think that for a BILLION DOLLARS invested, there would be SOMETHING to show for it......
or perhaps not.........
What do you mean by “created stars”? Promoters don’t create stars, stars create themselves. Promoters create opponents for stars to beat.
Floyd, Ali, Leonard, odh, canelo, weren’t created by any promoter. They either came from the Olympic with a huge following or created fan interest by their outside the ring “antics” or both.
wait Larryx died ?!
Yea the ironic part of this whole thread is TR can't even get the big success off of these star guys. As best as I can tell TR hasn't sold 200k or more PPV's in a non-joint PPV in almost 7yrs, since Manny left. Meanwhile PBC, GBP, Matchroom, hell even Triller have attained those numbers in non-joint PPV's & there have been at least 7 instances of PPV's doing 1M or more by those groups.
What good is the ability to "build a star", which I still believe is a bs concept cuz stars build themselves promoters just don't fook it up, if you can't even capitalize on it with huge fights fans wanna see?
What 7 instances are those by pbc, matchroom, and gbp?
cause I damn sure don't remember gbp or matchroom doing 1 million ppv buys in america at any point in these last 7 years that you speak of
As far as I know, TS is a huge Mayweather fan and is black.
Probably is. But typically a lot of criticism of PBC comes from a stormfont type place. That said, they certainly aren't perfect and they're many things you can criticize them on. But they are the best promotional company in boxing rn, for what that's worth.
that’s true lol have to give PBC credit for turning Bud into a superstar. Top Rank/ESPN never had the stable or marketing strategy to make him a star.
Will probably be similar with Shakur.
Post Bradley? Not really. Their Best talent was Crawford, who's having a career peak more or less with PBC.
