    :good - goldenboy would be alright but they seem to be more motivated by making money than helping a fighter build a legacy

    I like Don King, but I wouldn't want him screwing me like he did Tyson. Also Bob Arum is a ho, but Oscar is my preferred promoter. I believe he's the future of boxing promoter since he's still young and is good business wise. Also I heard him talk about reforming boxing to have on at least one ppv fight every month and 2 HBO or showtime fights

    Obviously Golden Boy, even if you don't like them. They have HBO in their pockets.

    If I had the talent to be a superstar then I go with Top Rank.

    If I just want some paydays, Id go with GBP.

    I choose DiBella because he seems to care a little about the boxer's well being (pulling Taylor out of super six) he can keep you active and usually gets all his prospects title shots.

    Hennesy is OK when your up and coming but once you get to world level he seems a little out his depth with the other rich promoters and his best fighters seem to fight infrequently when they reach the top ten.

    Nah. He was a lawyer from Hudson County, now turned promoter. His brother use to be Arturo Gatti's manager. His company also works with Top Rank in promoting events.

    I think Sauerland is very good for their OWN fighters.

    I like to thing the robberies in Germany isn't as bad as it used to be. There doesn't seem to be many more Ottke/Reid incidents.. IMO today an equal number of robberies happens in the US/UK and Europe..
