      Soto-Antillon will be good. But Jorge Arce is shot. And Pavlik is fighting some unknown in his first fight back from rehab, I don't expect that to be anything other than a one-sided mismatch.

      As for Pacquiao-Mosley you can put me in the camp of people who don't think it will be very competitive.

        learn from Golden Boy? you mean...

        -- trying to sign fighters under contract with suitcases full of money?
        -- bribing referees like Joe Cortez
        -- bribing judges since that was the only way Marquez could beat old MAB
        -- hyping stars like Victor Ortiz who gets KO'd by Maidana n looks crap against LaPete
        -- hyping Malinaggay even though he totally sucks
        -- pretending Alvarez vs. Matthew is a legit fight
        -- signing fighters like Nonito Donaire who are still under contract thereby ruining the fighters' career???

        i agree. this is why you get some Swedish Banker from hell to run your company he clearly knows what he's doing.

          I think GBP has always(at least for the last three yrs)put on the better shows..But it has also coast them,a lot of their prospects or fighters they wanted to become their next stars have taking some big L's..I guest that's the risk you take..

            That's a good point. GBP matches their guys up tough, and sometimes they end up losing.

            You won't seem them get protected like Juanma and some of Top Rank's other fighters.

              When is jaunama going to fight gamboa? Are you ok with the jaunt fighting rafa again.

              What about selling bull**** fights like Clottey/Marg/ and now Mosley vs PAC.

              Who has Chavez jr beaten again.

                  my guess is you will be seeing a lot more Morales on GBP cards.

                    it could lead to bigger things $$$
                    Why are you so intent on Khan vs Morales? In every thread you've been harking on about the same thing, over and over again, your post history says it all. You are a troll..

                      True!

                      When Cotto was on top, Mosley fought him

                      When Margarito was on top, Mosley fought him

                      When Pavlik was on top, Hopkins fought him ..

                      When Pacquaio was / is on top, Hatton fought him ..
