    Notice I say "most respect for" as by and large, they're a bit of a snide bunch ... let's face it.

    But which one do you respect the most, either for their loyalty, integrity, their boxing cards, the fighters under them (no homo) or whatever?

    GoldenBoyPromotions. They are bringing boxing back. Seriously. Look at the fights they've been making.. JMM vs Juan Diaz. Shane Mosley Vs Antonio Maracheato. Shane Mosley Vs Mayweather. Marcos Maidana Vs Timothy Bradley. And so many more. They bring some good cards aswell.

    Golden Boy started well but their undercards are becoming shitter and their deal with HBO is not good for the sport.

    None!! I hate to say it, but Dana White does a much better job for the fans.

    Lou DiBella. I thought him dropping Jermain Taylor was a classy, smart move.

    Dibella is a real dude and did the right thing dropping JT before he had made his decision. Not many gripes with him, his stable just isn't near what the deeper pocketed companies have.

    Lou DiBella

    Gary Shaw

    Simple reason being they both appear to care about their fighters. DiBellas situation with Taylor being an example.

    Golden Boy Promotions has been putting some nice cards together. Gotta respect that.

    Without a doubt Money May. His promotion banner "Mayweather Promotions" is the next biggest thing in the sport with a stable of young, hungry fighters.

    White is really more of a boss then a promoter. He has his interest in mind and not the fighters
