Amir Khan signs with Golden boy

[gingeralbino]

Everyone saying that Golden Boy fighters always lose their next fight must have happily ignored the part that said they were putting Paulie M forward as an opponent.
If Paulie KOs Khan he should just retire!

Good job getting rid of Warren.

No offence to Malignaggi but if ever there was a fighter made for another it's Malignaggi for Khan. Khan would absolutely destroy him.

yep ive been saying that for a while, he's perfect for Khan.
highly ranked, american, known in the UK and cant crack an egg. It would also be Khan's best win (assuming he fights and beats him) to date imo.

golden boy could throw him some big name , big money fights.

imagine.....

marquez = very winnable and great name win
hatton = also winnable and biggest payday

makes sense to go to gbp.

[ThePunchingBag]

GBP makes sense if Khan is looking for fighters at 140.

If he's planning to move up to 147 though, he needs to sign with Top Rank.

Dumb ass mofos act like GBP is any better than TR. They both make Don King seem like a saint.

Does this mean an Ortiz fight wont be happening while they still under the same banner?

Maybe that's the plan, to start loading up on talent, and make all these in house fight like Top Rank is doing.

Great news, I hope all fighters sign with GBP. Bob Arum's Top Rank has had its time, Not to mention their shady also (Allowing Ali to fight Holmes when they knew his brain wasn't working correctly).

Is the move to Golden Boy confirmed ye ?I am cynical about these press leakages as they seem to be designed to generate free media coverage and publicity. Remember the orchestrated circus around Khan finding a coach. In the real world you shop about settle which the coach you have chosen and get on with it. This should not be a media event. We are getting the same nonsense with the Maidana fight. Khan knows exactly if he will be fighting Maidan a next and with which promoter. Right now we are looking at more media bull****.
