LAS VEGAS -- Golden Boy Promotions will announce Saturday morning it has signed junior lightweight titlist Jorge Linares, one of the most gifted young fighters in the world.
Golden Boy announced Friday company president Oscar De La Hoya would make a "surprise" and "major announcement" at a news conference Saturday morning in the Floyd Mayweather-Juan Manuel Marquez media center.
Multiple sources with knowledge of the news conference told ESPN.com it was to announce the signing of Linares, the 24-year-old prodigy and two-division titleholder from Venezuela.
Linares (27-0, 18 KOs), whose nickname is coincidentally El Nino de Oro -- the Spanish version of De La Hoya's Golden Boy nickname -- has been based in Japan for the past several years and fighting for Akihiko Honda's Teiken Boxing, Japan's most influential promoter.
Honda will remain as Linares' co-promoter, according to a source.
Golden Boy, like several American promoters, has had its eye on Linares for a few years.
He won his first world title in Las Vegas in July 2007 when he stopped former junior featherweight champion Oscar Larios in the 10th round of a one-sided fight to win a vacant featherweight belt.
The bout was on the Bernard Hopkins-Winky Wright card, which was promoted by Golden Boy. It didn't have a deal with Linares at the time, but put him on the card with the hope of signing him.
It took more than two years. Since that bout, however, Linares has fought three times because of nagging injuries, which he seems to have put behind him.
Linares made one defense of his featherweight belt before moving up to junior lightweight and capturing a vacant title via fifth-round knockout of Whyber Garcia in November 2008.
Linares made his first defense of that belt June 27, stopping Josafat Perez in the eighth round.
Linares is scheduled to defend his title against Mexico's Juan Carlos Salgado on Oct. 10 in Tokyo. After that, Linares is expected to fight in the United States.

DLH has been looking thinner lately. It wouldn't surprise me if he did say he was coming back.

I don't believe he will ever be fully back though he got what he wanted out of the sport.

maybe he sees calderon lost some step and want to fight him, in relation to making look bad at sparring and its personal ...

kidding aside i know its big news the linares is going with golden boy but whats personal with that?

[KILLA RIGHT]

We can finally see linares more often now. Wow that is good news though their are alot of fights that could be made with jorge

[The Great Shark]

Man if he fights Hatton, he'd box circles around him. If he "comes back" it wouldn't be TOO surprising seeing as how he just "left".

[Ekscape]

you are right...

Linares looks pretty good and promising but to call him a "boxing prodigy"... come on now lol

[El Chicano]

at the end of the under card presser, and he said "lets just say that you will be surprised"

what can it possibly be?

He's getting a vasectomy?
