    Golden Boy Promotions Blacklisting Independent Boxing Forums?

    An independent boxing forum, that was threatened with having all credentials for future fights denied if they did round by round coverage of the BHop v RJJ farce, has been blacklisted for future events by Ed Keenan, the man in charge of Golden Boy Promotions credential services.

              I heard they were blacklisted after doing several hate pieces on Keenan. Never a smart move to make enemies with the guy in charge of credentials. Our site is pretty close with Keenan and Golden Boy so no worries here.

                Maybe they should have followed the rules like good boys.

                  I use to write for a site, and went to cover the Cotto vs Jennings fight and was told to speak favorable about the event. After that I quit.

                    Take the time to read and actually figure out the situation.
