Golden Boy is drowning they need to make Errol Spence a great offer. What happened to Matthyse? His career has went downhill since going to Golden Boy. This isn’t your Richard Schaefer ran GBP

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Come to think about GBP are so desperate they just got played by Cotto. The two fights that he worked with them for have been trash

According to Eric Gomez, the president of Golden Boy Promotions, Danny Garcia, Lamont Peterson, James Kirkland, Errol Spence Jr. and Lucas Matthysse either declined this opportunity to face Cotto or simply were not available.

Yea they all turned down great offers i assume lol. Im not taking their word on it based on Cotto last opponent. Steve Kim is a Golden Boy shill.
