Goldenboy is simply in the midst of taking TR’s spot.

Could be true!

[just the facts]

They obviously can afford this. Nevada gives incentives to build too

Not for the kind of $$$ it takes to build a casino. If you add all of the money golden boy and Oscar personally have, it’ll be less than 5% of the total cost to build a state of the art casino. That means investors have to be involved. Not likely any big money people are gonna bankroll that kind of scratch to a boxing promoter.

I realize that you personally are responsible for the cleanliness of Oscars testicles but you’re either ****** or delusional. TR has 10x the roster and 100x the quality of fighters Golden Boy does. GB/Oscar don’t have the $$$ for anything like that.

Dude just picked up indie ranked top ten guys JLR & Barboza.

I'm all for dogging ODLH when he does many of the dumb ass things he's done, but outside of the weirdness with Ryan in the past I think ODLH is making more good moves than bad moves lately. This building of a private venue is a good move 100% & has many upsides for them.

Again, why would any established upper level fighter want to sign with Golden Boy? They never put on high dollar fights. Their too afraid to risk putting their fighters in vs quality opposition to ever make real money with.

I lived in vegas for awhile. Plenty of investors pour money into all kinds of projects. All about their return

None of those money people would invest that kind of money in a boxing promotion.

Oscar has always had significant investors.. he can get into any room.

TR’s contract with ESPN is coming up shortly, who do they have in order to leverage a new deal with ESPN? Remember Oscar negotiated a deal with ESPN prior to TR coming in and stealing a much more enhanced deal from ESPN. TR has not been able to create one single PPV star, meanwhile, Oscar repeatedly does so.

As I said the door is wide open in Vegas, and ESPN will be looking for a new lead shortly.

Hopefully ESPN exits the sport. It's easy to believe that if HBO and Showtime threw in the towel then ESPN is next. No Bob does not have any stars to leverage a new deal. ESPN has to be mad at Bob for losing Crawford, the Trilla PPV disaster and now on the cusp of losing Shakur as well. Al Bob and Oscar should be at Amazon HQrts hammering out a new deal!!

AND Amazon should FORCE them all to make the best fights with one another
