    ....just want to know your thoughts.

    Ok lets make it like this ...best match up for 5 for GBP vs 5 for Top Rank fighters ( you can make it 10 if you like ). Who would win ? :yep

    Top Rank has a deeper pool of fighter around Featherweight, whereas GBP has deeper around Welterweight.

    I would say Top Rank's top 5 fighters are Pacquiao, Bradley, Marquez, Donaire and Rigo. I don't think Golden Boy's top five match that (considering that Mayweather isn't strictly Golden Boy) but I think GBP have the chance to promote bigger and better fights.

    GBP have a deeper pool at WW, but Top Rank's WW fighters are better.

    GBP have some great talent but Toprank just edge them with their recent glut of Olympic Gold Medal signings like Lomechenko and Murata.

    Best Golden Boy fighters:

    Mares
    Garcia
    Matthysee
    Lara
    Alvarez


    Best Top Rank fighters:

    Pacquiao
    Bradley
    Rigo
    Donaire
    Garcia

    It's not even close. Top Rank wins hands down. 3 of the Golden Boy's best fighters are coming off losses. The best guys they have are Garcia and Lara, which pales in comparison to Pacquiao, Rigo, Bradley and Garcia.

    GBP have some top quality fighters & put on competitive fights on stacked cards but in terms of numbers, quality & rising talent Top Rank wipes the floor with GBP
