    Bitchy Arum is a disgrace and I seriously hope for his sake that god isn't a boxing fan. On the other hand I salute Goldenboy for giving us fights such as JMM v Katsidis, Maidana v Ortiz, now we're gettin Ortiz Peterson and Khan Maidana to mention a few and there are promises for even bigger challenges in 2011 such as Khan v Bradley/Alexander.

    Taking into consideration of the constant **** thrown at us fans by Bitchy Arum's low rank, I just don't seem to understand why GoldenBoy aren't applauded for their efforts atleast they aren't afraid to put their prospects in dangerous territory early on like Ortiz/Khan-Maidana and Jacobs-Pirog, unlike low rank who would go have their prospects Martiroysan, Chavez Jr, fight nobodies all there lives, hell, even Roach is tired of this **** and said in an interview regarding Martiroysan "They need to stop babyin this kid and put him in some tough competition"

    As fans I think we should stop buying any of Low Rank's **** and buy more of Goldenboy's card (given that they put quality shows on).

    Thoughts?

    I'll just buy them both & stay out of the drama.
    If fighter's keep winning eventually the fights we want will be made.
    (Except Floyd/Manny)

    Why do Manny fans complain about this? Your man got his big shot and used it well, very well indeed. Oscar could have easily taken his beating off Margarito and given Margarito the spotlight for one fight.

    i do not complain as a pacquiao fan since it gave pacquiao his shot for mainstream recognition but i was complaining of how ironic it is for oscar to say that he is out to give the best fight out there when even he himself does not does not follow what he preach.

    Both major promotions certainly deserve the blame for allowing relations between the two to reach the point where they can't even do business. So much for "professional" boxing.

    You think Ortiz/Khan-Maidana type of fights are good? Pac's last 5-6 fights are like this :patsch. You are just saying that because GBP's prospects are losing left and right which just means GBP prospects are nothing but hypejobs.

    I think he is trying to say they are willing to challenge them more and they certainly are. However Rigondeux and Mike Jones where tested to the point where you have to call them risky challenges too (especially Jones.) I don't see how you can refer to such skilled young prospects as hypejobs so flippantly.

    Who cares if they are corrupt? I as a boxing fan am only interested in quality fights being put together which goldenboy are providing unlike low rank

    Firstly, what do you mean by "Ortiz/khan-Maidana type of fights are good"? Did you want to see either of those Ortiz fight Morales, Khan fight Casamayor and Maidana fight Cheebah? Khan/Ortiz v Maidana are matchups between the top 5--6 jww's in the world...I seriously don't know what your smoking.

    Secondly, what do you mean by Pac's last 5-6 fights are like this? That makes no sense at all.

    Finally, I'd agree with Jacobs being a hypejob, but Khan and Ortiz? That's a joke.

    Look, the point I'm trying to make is, GoldenBoy are giving us the quality fights that we want which Bob Arum is not doing and for that reason we should boycott low rank and support goldenboy so we can get Arum to get us the quality fights that we want
