    It can happen, it's just that they will never co promote TOGETHER. One company has to buy out the entire fight and promote it themselves.

        Like one mentioned maidana-karrass and Lara-Martirosyan is proof of that.
        lara/martirosyn was a purse bid that top rank won. golden boy had no involvement in the fight.

        karass was released by top rank.

          Yes, because Golden Boy has nothing to do with it...

              I'd rather see Mares vs Santa Cruz. Mares vs Donaire would still be good i guess. Donaire would probably have a highlight knockout.

                Mares said that Oscar assured him he will try to make this fight.

                  Steve Kim = Top Rank shill

                  There was more than 5 k there, staples holds 20 thousand for boxing events there had to be at least 10 k, maybe steve was implying only 5 k were bought and the rest were comps?

                  But Abner Mares has a huge fan base for a lighter weight fighter, its Nonito Donaire who is overhyped when it comes to his drawing power. Nonito can't draw flies, the pinoys do not support this man for some reason. Carson has lots of filipinos yet he only sold like 500 tickets at a small outdoor arena?

                  Nonito is overpaid I heard he gets a minimum of 800k per fight but has been making a million a fight recently with his new top rank deal.

                    There is NOTHING we can do as fans, aside from sending death threats or some **** like that. Promoters run boxing, they say "jump" and networks and sanctioning bodies say "how high?". It is what it is.

                      I work at staples. As of monday before the fight, they had to cut staff for the event because only 2 k had been sold. I talked to a couple of supervisors and they said 5,200 at the gate with a lot of give aways
