    In no other sport do you see guys like this even allowed to get a media credential to do anything.

    Even the UFC has a better handle on things and rejects these types.
    Fair enough.

    Then can we please get one of the 'real reporters' to get those very real issues he raised addressed by Golden Boy.

    Because as of right now, it appears the 'YouTube channel guys' seem to be the only ones putting in work on understanding why one of the largest promoters outfits in boxing was engaged in race-driven smear campaign that used willing 'real reporters' as the minions for the dirty work.

          Completely agree.

          Once he starts talking about his personal feelings, anyone with an ounce of journalism knowledge would know that this guy has no business with credentials.

              Whether the guy has credentials or not, I'm sure Haymon and Oscar prefer to not go into details about it. Could be some non-disclosure agreement. Barbershop does have a right to feel offended, but leave it alone. I'm sure the editor of Ring, as he looks a bit Spilerbergish knows about discrimination...

              The real question is why Freddy Roach didn't get grinders when he called Ellie Eechbach a "*** mudafaka or Robert Garcia a Mexican piece of shıt... it's best we ask old Larry Merchant and Lampley these questions. Al Bernstein approves of this message.

                Most "reporters" in boxing are scared to ask similar questions. They acquire credentials and guard it with their life by *****footing around these promoters. Whoever this guy is didn't know the rules well enough.

                    This. Guy is a dummy (honestly I don't know how some of you guys watch these Youtube dipsh_ts, I find 98% of them unwatchable), but there is still legit questions for GBP.

                    I believe the Ring guy answered the question he was asked & it sounded like no harm no foul for them. Then they kicked this guy out before he could ask the question to GBP about why a GBP employee was talking via email to this other non-Youtube dipsh_ts.

                    And like I mentioned if this was the NFL or NBA or some other sport this thing would have hit GBP in the face way past now, but boxing operates in the sewers of professional sports.

                      The editor from Ring answered the question and was telling the truth, the racist reporter in question was fired by Ring and from what I can tell was HIRED by f*ghtnews, and posted at least a few stories there this week alone. Why continue to answer questions about a reporter who not only works for another outlet, but the emails took place YEARS ago!
