Bringing boxing back to stadiums, Cowboys stadium, Yankee stadium, he tried to do a fight at San Francisco Giant baseball field. I mean he is taking boxing out of the casinos and putting them back in stadiums like the old days. And, more fans will visit. And, so called fans are ****ting on him? Yea he does some shady ****, but guess what? Every promoter including GBP do shady ****. But, nobody really wants to give credit to TR for the good **** they do for boxing. Because, they do some good stuff for the sport. Taking boxing away from stale casinos and putting them in stadiums is one of them.
last time I checked Winky still doesn't have a date w/ TopRank.
bro he just signed with them recently. Give them some time because he was suppose to be in their with Pavlik later this year until the Martinez beating occured...lol
I've felt the same way about De La Joto a long time ago. But, as a promoter, what has he actually done for people to say he's a snake ?
There's a difference between how you feel about him vs. what he has actually done for you to think that way, ya dig
Agreed.
But you have to admit the whole "Pacman's punches didnt hurt me" and then back tracking to say his punches felt like when Vargas was on roids, that was plain dirty.
Even if he was pushing for the May-Pac fight to happen I still think that was a ****ed up thing to do.
That is a damn lie STFU since you do not know what you're talking about.
Actually it is ******, Pavlik & Margorito were the cash cows before Manny and they both got smoked the second they stepped out of the Top rank web, Cotto was as well until Bob forgot to tell Margorito to do as he did Clottey and not fight to win. Then Cotto is spoon fed a bum and a fixed fight by Bob just so he can feed the mentally broken and damaged lamb to the slaughter and even insists that Cotto fight at a catch weight for the paper belt to hand to manny and then Bob sides with Margorito over the Cotto fight even more while still hoping Cotto can bring out the PR fans to his next fight with a guy alot bigger than him at a new weight. Arum is a snake oil salesmen period. Also, the reason they build prospects is because they don't fight any real fights until there bigger names and then they lose. GBP atleast puts there guys in fights, Ortiz was a big prospect and they put him in a tough fight with a guy that had the tools to make it a fight and was just as capable as exploiting Ortiz's weakness as he was at exposing Maidans, unfortunately for GBP Maidana can actually punch very hard and Ortiz wasn't prepared for that. Top rank however takes the Freddie Roach K.Bros approach of assuring that the fighters they face are lacking in some category that will allow them to make there fighters look good while presenting no actual challenge. Plus they offer all these cutrate Latin Fury Pinoy Power as PPV's and then host EVENTS with there main fighter fighting an unranked jorneymen stable fighter that clealry had no intentions of winning the fight and Manny still lands at 20%...it's an outrage that they even are considered part of the sport, they should just create there own titles and fight in there own little Top rank league.
