Good to see he isnt lying down and letting Golden Boy walk all over him, even if it has cost him what I imagine is a pretty lucrative job

:good Thanks for the link, good read that.

I have a lot of time for Montoya. He seems to be offering GBP every opportunity to tell their side and they are just blanking him. Can't stand all that petty stuff. If you have nothing to hide, tell the man the truth, and then call him out if he doesn't print it. Don't do the whole "I'm not talking to you because you don't tow the line" bullshit.

He's doing an excellent job. He's not made a single accusation, just asked questions.

that article makes it seem like Golden Boy have Kizer under their thumb a bit in my opinion.

GBP brought the most financially successful fight of the year to Nevada. it's clear the tail wags the dog.

Enjoyed that it was a good read I like what montoya is trying to do and not being bullied by GBP. I wonder how many times they have used this tactic?

This similar thread on ESB was one of the best I'd read recently hope it continues here,is shaunster on here too? He seemed to have a big interest in this subject.

:deal GBP have massive influence in Nevada. I mean Floyd basically got a jail sentence moved to a more convenient time fro him based on the fact that he generates so much cash for Vegas.

Some amazing FB comments on that article. Utter tools.

Very interesting article. I am not well-versed in the world of journalism but I presume that all his cryptic(ity?) means he has a pretty big tip-off about some of these things? The whole Khan thing was very weird.

I think his source is likely in a testing agency who has pointed him in the direction of some interesting anomalies. And Montoya has just started asking questions, first to verify if what the source said has any truth to it, and to see what he can dig up. Shaking that tree has caused a lot of noise though!

On the whole I think he is educating a lot of us on what is going on and he has caused quite a stir in the boxing community.

I have to laugh at a couple of opportunist writers who this week wrote self-promoting, misinformed articles. It seems that in their haste to try and discredit Montoya that they failed to read the FACTS of his articles and made themselves look stupid. It really amplifies the childish insecurity of some people that cannot stand someone like Montoya getting kudos or high profile because of his work on the PEDS issue. He should be applauded for all of his work on this.
