    Because they put their fighters into entertaining and ultimately risky fights? I mean if I was HBO and I was approached with Ortiz vs Maidana and JuanMa vs Lonchi, I'm taking the Ortiz fight easily.

    Arum crying is nothing new.

    They also have a decent medium between the pagaentry and the warrior attitude that comes with boxing. It's not over the top like some German events and not completely dull like some of the Top Rank events.

    Top Rank has far superior fighters and actually will promote their OWN PPV's,unlike GBP who kneel at HBO for their money.

    top rank; HBO just affiliate with GBP cause the saw future, money but right now the golden stable dont looks good for all the issues and injuries. Ortiz-Maidana wasn't the main event for last Saturday, due to cancellation of Juarez-John they elevate the fight to main event.

    Golden Boy's stable doesn't even compare to Top Rank's, their only top fighters are the ones that are share holders in the company: B-Hop and Mosley

    Golden Boy will be around longer than Arum guranteed 100%.
    That's all that matter's in the end. Arum is on his last leg's.
    (This stable is his last hurrah!)
