That’s the message being sent in recent pay-per-view telecasts, anyway.
Golden Boy Promotions has attempted to make it their mission going back to this past summer’s rematch between Juan Manuel Marquez and Juan Diaz. It wasn’t the most anticipated main event – both fighters were coming off of losses – but it was a sequel to the 2009 Fight of the Year.
