Golden Boy Promotions To Quit in 2011?

[Heru]

I read a quote from Ross Greenburg, the boss at HBO Sports, and he said he's happy about the content GBP has given them and on their relationship. So that's going to keep on going and if you have a monopoly of dates with HBO, you're a lock for new talent.

GBP started out... What? 7-8 years ago? How many years of experience does Arum and DK have as boxing promoters? 40? Great comparison.

The criticism is coming way too soon because of how fast GBP has come up. The hate is going to get to immense levels as soon as Khan, Alvarez, and Ortiz pan out and start fighting each other or other stars and selling tons of PPV. Kirkland will get out of trouble and start living up to his potential, which is taking over 154. Mares is going to come through as a lower weight star.

They have to scout better though, if you're going to take Kirkland from Shaw, you have to pickup Nonito Donaireif they have the same manager. Gamboa is another foresight that you could tell would be a problem. I know Gomez beat Benavidez in the amateurs, but you couldn't tell Benavidez might be a better pro?

If HBO doesn't give them another similar deal like they have now, then we will see how good of a promotional company they truly are.

For sure bro

Nah, Oscar hit the jackpot with Canelo and Khan.

With Canelo we've found the next big mexican superstar.

With Khan Oscar could be tapping into a whole new demographic.

These guys are just a year or two away. Bright things in GBP's future.

They have Haye on an American contract.

[Sweet Jesus]

They also have Kirkland, Lara, Linares, and Deontay Wilder.

2011 A Long Year for Golden Boy Promotions


James Kirkland is a gun-toting felon who may never get out of prison,



Fight Hype

Mandingo is already out of prison.

he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet.

your a jerk for making character judgments on people you don't know.

just lol......fight hype is a **** site......and gbp is the most privileged promotional company out there...theyre not going anywhere

[check hook]

Rubbish.......they promote just as good as anyone or better. They lag in producing stars from the ground up and recognising talent. Arum's been in the game for 40 years, as has King and others. The other thing they need is a better match maker. GOMEZ IS **** compared to TR's guy.
