Golden Boy Losses Arslanbek “The Lion” Makhmudov

https://mobile.twitter.com/JasonToufexis/status/1393260894461775877 Damn, no way around it this is a huge loss for Golden Boy’s stable. Although, still considered a prospect The Lion has as high as ceiling as anyone in the heavyweight division. Don’t blame Eye of the Tiger Management for cutting ties w/t Golden Boy there just isn’t enough dates for everyone right now. DAZN really foook Oscar and his stable over he needs to leave that platform ASAP before he looses more talent.

Someone needs to nudge Vergil Ortiz into leaving GBP. He's on a sinking ship. Don’t see Vergil heading elsewhere, the kid has been nothing but complimentary towards Oscar and Golden Boy unlike Ryan who dumps on Oscar anytime he gets the opportunity. However, do think Munguia last fight w/t Golden Boy will be the Sulecki fight as his co-promotional agreement w/t Golden Boy ends. Zanfer Promotions pretty much promise Munguia to Hearn for more fight dates on DAZN. Golden Boy needs to leave the DAZN platform NOW instead of later can’t afford to loose more talent.

This makes sense. He signed a co-promotional deal with Golden Boy last year but because of Covid he didn't fight. Was scheduled to fight on 2 cards that were canceled. Last month his main promoter Eye of the Tiger inked a deal with Cameron Dunkin. Eye of the Tiger probably bought his contract out from Golden Boy because they working with Dunkin.

He posted something on IG the other day about the Israel/Palestine conflict. I wonder if it's because of that

Hopefully Eye of the Tiger can get him active again soon and start stepping up his opposition Agreed, The Lion turns 32 next month definitely needs to put his career in the fast lane.

The Lion was due to be the co main on the Vergil Ortiz fight but got injured. Then was schedule to be the co main on Munguia/Sulecki and Munguia/Ballard card but both where cancel b/c of injuries. Hopefully Eye of the Tiger can get him active again soon and start stepping up his opposition

Did GB ever do anything with Makhmudov? Waste on their part, dude is a real threat at HW, hope to see him out there soon, Eye of the Tiger puts on some of the most fun cards The Lion was due to be the co main on the Vergil Ortiz fight but got injured.

Eye of the Tiger is doing their own thing with Duncan Cameron or something. Yup, Cameron Dunkin most likely advise Camille Stephan to end to co promotional deal w/t Golden Boy as The Lion is their best asset @ the moment.
