    Don King will get you the big fights but i would go with Goosen. GBP and TR and bull****. Dont know much about Gary Shaw and Dibella seems weak.

    For purely selfish reasons, it has to be Top Rank. As bad as Arum is for boxing, he knows how to do his job. In recent years, Top Rank have turned De La Hoya, Mayweather Pacquiao and Cotto amongst others into huge stars. They have the best matchmakers (especially Bruce Tampler), and they know how to sell tickets and build fighters names. If they're not interested, just get Al Haymon as a manager and it seems you're sorted.

    GBP seem to have no idea what they're doing, consistently getting their top prospects knocked out, putting Mora-Mosley on PPV, booking a bunch of big fights for November and getting terrible ticket sales for all of them. They do give the fans some good matchups though. Gary Shaw is the worst, and a scumbag to boot.

    Top Rank or Frank Warren.They are truly first class p[romoters and protect their fighters as best they can.

    Didn't Mayweather and De La Hoya become big after they left Top Rank? I would choose Don King. He always seems to get the big fights done. I would just have to watch out for my money.

    Only in America! Don King. I can read so I'd not sign a f'd up deal. I hope at least.
