    Lou DiBella is ruining his top fighters!

    While everyone was looking past Jason Litzau, talking about his slurred speech and all this other bull****, I was telling anyone who would listen that 130 was too big a jump for a guy that had made 122 with no problems recently. I understand that everyone was ducking Caballero at 122 and 126, but putting him in with a ****er two weight classes above where he's the champion was a foolish move. Now that Cab took the risk and lost, big money fights with Juanma and Gamboa are gone, and the 34 year old has to rebuild. Thanks alot DiBella.

    Now he's whoring out Sergio Martinez's lineal MW title to anyone with a pulse at 155 pounds. Lou's catchphrase is even: "He'll have to kill himself to make that." Why is it that all his fighters have to make concessions? Sergio is P4P #3 and the real MW champion. There is no need to devalue him for Cotto, Chavez, or whoever else they are targeting. And when Sergio loses because he was drained, what will DiBella say? Remember, he was 176 pounds 30 days out from a 157 lb. fight. Lou's a nice dude, maybe too nice, but he can't negotiate for ****. I hope Berto and other fighters in his stable leave.

    DiBella takes chances with his fighter and if they succeed it pays off big time.

    He is by far the best promoter for the fans.

      Woow at that first paragraph

      Litzau a ****er? a champion at 130?

      Caba lost that fight all by himself. First time he's fighting 130 and he has extreme trouble weighing in? And then weighs in as a WW on fight night?

      There's a reason he was a 13-1 favorite

        Excuse me, Lou Dibella is the best promoter in the business.

        He puts his guys (outside of Ross Greenbergs baby, Andre Berto) in real fights and and gives them the chance to make their legacies.

        Martinez fought Cintron, Williams, Pavlik, and Williams in two years. No tuneups. He was a nobody and now hes the p4p #3.

        Malignaggi fought Hatton, Diaz, Diaz again, and Khan in the course of 18 months.

        Look at how many opportunities he's got for Glen Johnson long after people wrote him off. Now Johnson way well end up in the finals or even the winner of the damn Super Six.

        He's even managed to keep Leapfrog Cintron's crazy ass busy with big name fights.

        Caballero got exposed. Sorry.

          dibella is a *****y promoter. if he knew what he was doing, he's boxers would be selling more seats and thus ppvs and therefore he wouldn't have to whore his boxers to the highest bidder.

          it wasn't dibella's fault caballero sucks tho.

              DiBella does a pretty good job, I don't know if I would call him the best but he certainly gets the most out of his resources.

                Pound for pound he is the best promoter in the business right now.

                He puts his guys in high risk/high reward fights.

                  Dibella is a god awful promoter. The only advertising I heard about Martinez vs Pwill was on boxing sites on the internet. It didnt suprise me when they released the numbers for the gate at the boardwalk and it was something like 5000. 5000 for a fight of the year candidate is a pathetic joke.

                  To sum it up, Pacquiao has made more in his last fight than Martinez and Bertos entire career put together.
