Comments Thread For: Vanes Martirosyan Inks Promotional With Dan Goossen

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Sherman Oaks, CA - Make way, Chris Arreola! There's another "Nightmare" in the Goossen Tutor Promotions stable of boxers, as promoter Dan Goossen today announced the signing of veteran world title challenger and world-ranked contender, Vanes "The Nightmare" Martirosyan.

The 6-0 tall, 27-year old Armenian native, who has lived in Glendale, California since emigrating there with his family at age 4, has compiled an impressive 33-1-1 record with 21 knockouts in his nearly nine years as a professional boxer while fighting under Bob Arum's Top Rank, Inc. banner. The orthodox-style super welterweight was recently ranked as the #1 contender in most of the world sanctioning organizations. He formerly held the NABF Super Welterweight and NABO Junior Middleweight titles. [Click Here To Read More]

A typical BUM!

This guy NEVER had the fire to be something special! How the hell does he have so many wins (the who's who of cab drivers!) and NEVER won a tittle OR was in a fire fight! He is a board certified BUM!

Good signing for him with a neutral company. Now he can fight GB fighters too. But I don't really think he's getting his hands on any belts. He's strictly a name on someone's resume, and a mediocre one at that.

You only leave Arum when he thinks you have nothing to offer, hopefully Vanes proves him wrong.

Should have probably went with GBP as Goose has no power with any tv network.

Probably the best move for him right now. I can't say that I'm a fan of his but Arum could've done a lot more for this guy. Bob pretty much ignores his guys to focus on Pac.

He can probably fight GBP fighters now. Though I don't remember the last GbP vs Goosen fight, can some one name one? Wasn't Williams with Goosen when Canelo vs Williams was signed? I don't think Williams was with GBP was he?

In Bob's defense, he did try if I recall. Vanes just declined fights most of the times. If I remember correctly, I could be wrong, but I think it was Vanes who was rejecting fights left and right. I'm pretty sure he rejected Angulo, and rejected a Lara rematch for the final eliminator.

Lol damn arum dropped him like a bad habit

Vanes always has a shot of upsetting a big name because he does pack a decent punch, but he gasses in fights. He needs to really concentrate on his stamina.
