Cheerleading one boxing promotions company over another is like cheerleading ********* over gonorrhea. Only a dumb-**** would do it, since neither exist for the good of our health.
In this case, though, it's just another symptom of the threadstarter's chronic and extreme ****riderism. Meaning, all this **** does is obsessively cheer anything related to Pacquiao and obsessively attack anything that even vaguely threatens him or the company he works for.
Sad and pathetic. Be a boxing fan, you mindless fruit.

There is no doubt that TR > GBP due to proven ability to develop new talents.
Oscar is smart in the sense that he knows his limitation but his ability to recruit and developing new talents is nothing to brag about. He still is not in the nitty gritty here which hurts GBP.
BTW, for those complaining about JuanMa vs Gamboa match. IMHO Arum wants a tourney in 1.5 yr once Donaire is in the mix. Think of the match $$$ there in a super tourney. Donaire might stay in TR despite what has transpired....$$ talks.

I don't know how Bob does it. I can see the fault in Golden Boy stealing Donaire while he still has a valid contract with Top Rank, but Bob still manages to steal Manny from Golden who signed him first. I know it was Pac who picked Top Rank, but the type of influence Arum has is crazy. He's a proven veteran of the game.

Even SRL couldn't do something approaching that and he is as smart as they come. Oscar's aptitude is certainly in his people skills and his drive to get what he wants but not to be nasty with it.
That way his business relationships stay pretty healthy.
Certainly healthy to alienate the company you can make the most money with.
Gimme a break. The guy's a dumb ass. If HBO weren't playing favorites and giving him a helping hand GBP would be in serious trouble.

What had Top Rank done in ten years? How many superstars had they developed in 1983 when they had been going for ten years?
What sets Golden Boy apart is that you have boxers adivsing boxers, aswell as a business model. Thats all.
No doubt Top Rank is number one business wise, but in terms of looking after and advising boxers. I think GBP will prove that they do that much better in the long term.
But overall you're right Top Rank are bigger than GBP.
i agree, and believe that regardless golden boy is here to stay which is a credit to them. Every big boxer tries tp create a promotional company i am not even going to start naming them, but Golden Boy has hung around and kept the competition healthy.
