You notice at the start of the thread reflexively people are saying GBP, but in reality, when you break it down it's hard not to favour TR. Taking Floyd outta the equation (he's not GBP - despite the strong business ties) skews it even further towards TR.
GBP/SHO have a business model based around PPVs involving a few stars and is very much focused on the US/Mexican target audiences. GBP is only strong in a few divisions mainly 135-154 and even there lack the strength in depth of TR. For this reason they also seem more reluctant to sign fighters that are not readily marketable to their target demographic.
TR is also increasingly capitalising on foreign amateur talent (Shiming, Rigo, Loma, Mekhontsev and the shamefully managed Korobov).
Because SHO and GBP seem to put on the bigger spectacles (many of which are based around the non-GBP FMJ) there seems to be a wide perception that they have the better stable, but closer examination shows this is not the case.
You are very wrong, I broke it down above and you are just drinking the Kool-Aid, you say TR has more depth at 135 and 154 name them?
