All roads lead to Top Rank... GBP losing their fighters.

If GB has any sense it will make a move for James DeGale quickly. That kid is going to be sweet for a long, long time.

GBP do have a big stable indeed. However most do not generate that much.

Heck the guys they do have are not PPV guys.

Hopkins was very unhappy after the Roy fight with GBP, but he may do well VS Pascal.

One thing that is missing in boxing are rematches. People don't realise rematches sell fights!

Khan and Maidana would ****ing sell out. Maybe even PPV ?

What about Kessler VS Froch? That was good too!

Top Rank have the guys who are ppV guys, I have to admit that Arum is good at building guys up.

GBP need to learn how to build up fighters to be PPV stars. Khan already had it before he even went to the US.
Also they need to use games like pr vs mexico etc...
Alvarez may be something or he may be exposed.

good. if one promoter has most of the good fighters then we will get good fights. if they are all over the place like right now we never get good fights.

Yup, it's the UFC model. Dana White has the majority of the big names in the sport, got a ton of them from PRIDE when that organization went belly up. Look how that's turned out for him and his organization, and MMA as a whole.

We'd see less bickering and go-nowhere negotiations and we'd get more attractive fights. I think a lot of fighters see that Arum is thinking big (stadiums, CBS/Show deal, etc) and they want a piece of that pie (and Pacquiao) instead of fighting in empty Indian casinos.
