  • De La Hoya, Golden Boy Challenge The UFC’s Monopoly

    Besides being the co-promoter to Saturday's welterweight showdown between Antonio Margarito and Shane Mosley, Golden Boy Promotions is also the co-promoter to the Affliction "Day of Reckoning" pay-per-view, which also takes place on Saturday night. Both of the events are taking place in California. The Affliction pay-per-view, headlined by heavyweights Fedor Emelianenko and Andrei Arlovski, will clash at the Honda Center in Anaheim, while Margarito vs. Shane Mosley is about 30-miles away at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

        Well he does have the most destructive man on the planet fighting under his banner(Fedor) and it's about time someone fill the void that pride left after organized crime ripped it apart.

          i dont think this is a smart move for gbp. maybe mma is just too small a market for there to be multiple organizations.

            It would be nice if you could actually give us some actual reasons rather than just typing whatever nonsense happens to pop in your head.

              Golden Boy Promotions have no idea what they've gotten themselves into with this stunt. To their credit, everybody is talking about it, and the Fedor/Arlovski fight is one hell of a fight for MMA fans.

              Still, I don't see how Affliction is going to compete with the UFC. Golden Boy should just be happy with what they've done in boxing and continue to deliver us great fights, and not worry so much about being the best at everything.

                On the contrary I think it's great that they are taking on new challanges rather than just being satisfied with sucess in Boxing. In all honesty I would love nothing more than to see Dana White throw fits because the Golden Boy makes a fool out of him.

                    Oh yeah, no doubt. I hate Dana, I hope Golden Boy does make him throw fits and lose money.

                    I just don't see how they can do it with only 4 PPVs a year. Do they have regular television spots lined up yet?
