What stars has PBC created?

I don't really think promoters make stars, they make themselves and their potential competition can help bring increased popularity too. Just look at Fury, I don't think TR have had any real impact on his popularity, his fights are actually generating less interest as time goes on it seems. Wilder didn't really have any traction for that matter either until AJ brought lots of new eyes to the HW division.

Is that clearer?
If not go back and reread the question I posed in the first post.

But your thread asks what stars PBC has created. PBC has only existed 5 years. It takes longer than five years to create a star. So of course the stars they've created fought for Golden Boy previously.
But the list of fighters I posted became stars with PBC, not Golden Boy.

Spending money to artificially inflate value then selling off for a nice profit.

I don't understand the point of your thread. That PBC can't create stars without Golden Boy? Five years ago, most of the guys I listed were completely unknown. They're major headliners now because of PBC's TV exposure. Would have made no difference if their early fights were off TV fights on a Golden Boy card or off TV fights on a Gary Shaw card.
In 5 years, will you credit Tom Brown for all of PBC's stars?
