Comments Thread For: Arum Ecstatic as Arbitrator Rules Against Golden Boy

i personally think that donaire's main problem here is his wife. she tends to put him into serious trouble quite often, for example:

1. his feud with his parents has a lot to do with bad blood between them and his wife. thankfully, this was solved with both parties making up.
2. his most recent spat with philippine media was caused by his wife's unwise outburst on twitter, lambasting a number of filipino writers. again, thankfully, that was resolved.
3. i wouldn't be surprised if donaire's decision to leave top rank was influenced by his wife as well.

why am i saying this and not blasting sith lord bob?

that's cuz promoters are generally an untrustworthy lot and tend to be in it only for themselves. i mean, name me ONE big time promoter who is actually trustworthy and truly looks out for his fighters.

don king, golden boy and top rank are all the same, and its up to the fighters themselves to watch out how they deal with their promoters.

if donaire has problems in dealing with Bob, then he will most likely ALSO have problems with Golden Boy.

Golden Boy needs new lawyers and management. How many times are they going to lose big to Arum and Top Rank? You have to wonder if they even had a lawyer look over Donaire contract before signing him. I mean WTF this has happened twice. Somebody is taking GBP to the cleaners as lawyers. Cause they constantly getting paid to **** things up.
