I hope that it's successful , anything that is good for boxing is good for me too.

      Especially when the casinos will pay you to hold the fights at their place. Unless , the casinos aren't doing much of that anymore. Whatever it is , I hope that it works out well for boxing.

            With PBC going to streaming and likely not being able to pay all their fighters with reduced fight dates Golden Boy could be in a position to poach some talent from Haymon.

                Or Garcia already is a undercover double agent for Oscar and Haymon/Floyd. Everything Garcia says about Oscar seems negative and he seems to be much closer with Floyd. Andit did look like he took a dive for Tank (of course he surely got a fat bonus for it). It seems Floyd and Haymon are steering Garcia to a big money rematch with Tank, as Tank is going to keep ducking Haney, Stevenson, Teofimo and Loma.

                  Excellent post. Who invited clear/honest/intelligent posting to this emotionally driven webpage?

                    Why would any established professional fighter sign with Golden Boy? Makes no sense………..

                      Not likely. The cost would be more than Golden Boy takes in. In the business world, that’s called a loss. Golden boy can’t afford a very big loss.
