Bob arum is afraid to match his fighter with golden boy fighters

[gauze]

bad example. i dont think quillin has fought any golden boy fighters. not sure about winky wright. i feel like quillin isnt trying to fight anyone who poses a threat. he had a tough enough time with rosado (main events?)

GBP has such a big roster compared to TR where fights arent being recycled constantly. with top rank its basically like guys are fighting each other for a shot at pacquiao.

on the other hand, abner mares has been matched pretty tough and has fought perez, darchinyan, agbeko, morel, moreno...i dont think any of those guys were with GBP

not saying morel is a tough out or even relevant these days, but hes not a GBP fighter

true, you make valid points,, i was just responding to the OP who thinks TR is afraid of GBP fighters,,,

Im pretty sure they would put chavez in vs canelo,, manny vs danny or khan, etc..

Martinez and Golovkin are not TR fighters.
They both want Floyd's at 154.
There's no Arum to deal with.
What's the problem?

These effing Floyd fanatics polarizes everything -
SHO vs HBO, TR vs GBP, Pac vs Floyd, Power vs Skill,
you name it. All because of their blind love for the duck.

Worst fanbase in boxing.

Sergio Martinez, a Top Rank fighter wanted to fight Floyd and even at a CW but all we heard were crickets from Floyd's camp ...... oh wait, Sergio Martinez is not with Top Rank ... sorry!

Sergio Martinez never had a fight with a Top Rank fighter .... oh wait, he fought Chavez Jr.

So I guess that logic failed .... never mind ....

Martinez is not a Top Rank fighter...he also wanted to fight Manny and at a catchweight and we heard...crickets

[Heru]

dont place blame solely on arum and TR

Its not like GBP goes out of its way to make fights with other none TR fighters,,

Quillen vs GGG, SERG, Murray for example

Good examples... 3 non-TR fighters ...

Amazing how all the sudden Floyd has to fight Middleweights....but Ward has also called out both Martinez and GGG yet they do not want to fight him..hell they wont even fight each other

the truth is Oscar dela Hoya and Shafter is terrified of doing business with Bob because they know they can never be on top, they will always be left holding the shorter end of the stick.

[Larry the boss]

Going by these post it seems people dont even know who fights for whom

Floyd-not a goldenboy fighter

Martinez,GGG,Murray=not Top rank fighters

these days, i honestly believe arum and hoya dont want to put any kind of money into each others pockets. same goes for floyd and arum. i dont think the fighters themselves should be criticized so much for "ducking" in those situations.

As long as Goldenboy does buisness with Floyd they will sell more ppv..Floyd alone sold 3 million ppv headlining 2 cards himself..how much ppv did top rank do this year?
