Amir Khan Officially Signs with Golden Boy Promotions

if this is true then great

frank warren ruined calzaghe's earlier career by not getting him the big fights and he would have done the same to khan

 

considering he's being trained by freddie and is friends with manny, this is a bit of a surprise.

 

Not surprised great purchase. Golden boy needs to sign up the young bloods of these divisions.

 

why? roach has been known to favor GBP for pac as a promoter then.

 

Bit of a ***** move, also it seems he will dump his title to avoid Maidana and fight Malignaggi instead :-(

 

is that certain Ishy? I was looking forward to him fighting Maidana

 

There's an article on boxing scene. DiBella says Golden Boy have contacted them about a Khan-Malignaggi fight.

 

Whatever the lad does its a ***** move isnt it? ****in hell let the boy grow - he's gone over to the states now - lets see what happens!

 

:good Goes against Khans own words in the front page article then..

 

Dropping the title to fight a fighter a step above a tomato can and a known light hitter is a ***** move.

 

Golden Boy's offering something no other stable: a CO-PROMOTION deal with the given fighter's own promotional company (Khan Promotions), which is an excellent idea, the fighter feels he's part of negotiations, gets promotional income and has a stronger word at the table unlike anyone at Top Rank or rival promotions. Smart tactic. And nice idea signing Khan, hopefully Warren doesn't come up with some bull****.

Ishy: Golden Boy is Maidana's US promoter, so Khan's signing hardly rules out that fight, maybe postpones it. Khan just made his mandatory defense.

 

good move for khan, over the next two years he can build up his resume against the likes of malignaggi, campbell, judah, juan diaz, guzman and katsidez and then the big fights will be coming.

 

Anyone got any words from Franky Boy on this? Or does he still have certain rights with Amir?
