    Agreed, Bob Arum is in a class of his own there.

    I am not saying GBP are saints, but I am actually looking forward to the JMM/Diaz fight.

    What does JMM have left?

    He certainly doesn't belong at 140-147.

    And TBH, he did not look like he belonged at 135 early in the first Diaz fight either.

    I think some forget the problems that he had early in that fight.

    Paulie just made Diaz look bad, like Mayweather did to Marquez

        Marg/Pac is garbage and Pac loses a fan if it happens.

        JMM/Diaz is perhaps the worst PPV in the past couple of years.

        When was the last time two guys who have just come off losses headline a PPV?

        Juan Diaz is nowhere near PPV worthy.

        I'd have no problem with the match up if it was free HBO.

        It deserves to be that much at least.

        Also, Khan and Ortiz are both being sheltered in ODLH's dirty armpit right now.

          No, they are being developed, there is a big difference.

          And if you watch both fighters closely, you will see why

          Neither of them are ready for the top fighters at 140.

              Never believe a banker until he puts his money where his mouth is.

              GBP is not like Top Rank in terms of degree. Damn legalese, like what Arum uses.

                  yeah, they are, but but not by that much. They're becoming more and more like Top Rank with each fight.

                  Oscar see's what Bob is doing and see's that financially, it makes more sense to follow in Bob's footsteps.

                      Ortiz is fragile right now. he needs a formidable opponent and confidence booster all at 1 time. harris is dfeintely that.
