    I think Floyd always got his top guys some great opportunities to become world champions and he gave them a lot of exposure by letting them fight on his undercards. The only problem I see however is the inactivity a lot of fighters over there experience, from Tabiti to Jleon to Mickey Bey to Rodriguez and the listvgoes on nd on, you can't keep a fighter inactive this long.

    I first thought it was rhe fighters who wanted too much money to fight bums, but if all these fighters are having the same problem this means something is wrong.

I remember he lost to Gomez and then they brought him back on the show to get under Smith's skin cause the other fighters wanted him to get beat. Or maybe i'm not remembering that right

      Edit: Ahmed Khaddour, just looked it up
      Think it was the other way around because Ishe vs him they hyped as a big fight and the Ahmed guy was undefeated. After he lost to Ishe they brought him back and then Gomez beat him.

      I remember they had that guy from Jersey or somewhere along those lines with a thick accent who used to wear that #1 Dad hat And he was doing ok in the semis or quarters and then Jessie Brinkley knocked him spark out in the last minute or something like that.

      Some funny characters on the show.

        Forgot about Neno calling out Ryan, that would be a good scrap. Also, wouldn’t mind seeing Neno against Oscar Duarte another GBP prospect.

            Most great fighters are too egoical to make great or even good promoters. Oscar is the exception. Pacman, Cotto, Floyd, etc...those promotions aren't built to last bc they're too much about themselves.

            GBP is a good promotion bc it survived after whatshisface tried screwing them over

              You can have a smaller stable of fighters and keep all of them busy and happy.

                  I think he was from Dubai or something like that.

                  He was garbage but they hyped the hell out of him.
                  Are we talking about the al mighty Borat Golden boy Ahmad Kaddour?
