    are golden boy promotions overrated

    sure they have a good stable and put on great fights but in terms of developing a fighter and making him a star..are they better than top rank?

    Floydiots love em', but they're just as crap and just as crooked as any other promotional outfit. Oscar/Schaeffer are absolutely no different to Don King, Bob Arum, Lou di Bella etc.
    Giggly little fanboy's seem to support their fighters promoter's as hard as they do their fighter....Its a new phenomenon brought about by the internet, so yeah, in that regard yes, they are completely overrated.

      No way nobody is better at developing and guiding a fighter to the top than top rank.

        top rank definately know how to make an ordinary fighter look special. guys like brandon rios who fought smaller guys to make it look like he's a beast now the dudes fighting pacquiao and you would be deluded to think he has any chance to win that.
        though gbp have brought adrien broner up the same way and he got made to look ordinary aswell. the promoters would rather focus on entertainers than actual true talent which is what the sport has come to.
