Phil Ivey, probably the best poker player in the world, announced today on twitter he's in the promoting business. He mentioned he has a partner in All In Entertainment. He's a big boxing fan, and figured it was at least worth mentioning here.
Doesn't matter if you're Mike Tyson, a billionaire businessman or someone like Phil Ivey. If you don't have the name fighters you ain't getting anywhere. Beneath the cream layer at the top of the talent pool is **** soup.
I think i have seen a poster with Phil Ivey as his handle, same guy? Anyways more people investing money into the fight game is always good. Best of luck to him.
He seems a little too mellow to sell a fight from what I've seen of him -- which is admittedly very little outside of ESPN wsop.
... But I always liked watching him play and it takes a lot of intelligence to be considered the best poker player (or best anything, really) in the world.
