He's the Dana White of boxing.

Why would this be good news for the sport? A boxing promoter owning the leading magazine in boxing.

If Oscar has the business strategy to make boxing popular and bring it down to the masses then this is a good news but if he will use this to the advantage of his GBP then this is a bad news, so let's wait and see.

well he has you can say the boxing business in his hands and when you have that anything and everything is possible, he is gonna own the sport 10-20 yrs from now, fighters are gonna get more recognition (of course those that deserve to be recognized) and they are gonna get paid very too, so it is good for him and boxing

To borrow a phrase from Fuego: Suck it, crybabies!

DLH will eventually eliminate not only the Kings and Arums of the world, but also the bogus organizations. It's gonna take time, but eventually there will be one champ in each division, the best fighting the best all the time, fairness in the sport, all under the name of the man who's making it happen: The Golden Boy.

And it's not just Shane and B-Hop, but also Mayweather and anyone who wants to fight either Mayweather or Oscar for the next five years. The fighters are taking the sport back
