RSSJuan Diaz Joins Golden Boy
Juan Diaz’s manager Willie Savannah is reporting that Diaz has signed with Golden Boy Promotions, boxing’s hottest rising promotion headed by Oscar De La Hoya.
“We don’t have a signed contract but we have agreed in principle to a deal with Golden Boy,” Savannah said. “I haven’t seen a contract but we agreed on everything. I think everything will be OK. Everything is being put to paper and then our lawyer [Fred Levin] will go through it.”
“What I think it shows is that Golden Boy Promotions has the resources and the infrastructure to sign the fighters we feel strongly about,” said Golden Boy’s Richard Schaefer. “Juan Diaz is one of the fighters Oscar really wants to work with, so we got it done. It shows, as well, to other fighters out there that Golden Boy is certainly one of the leading promoters out there and a company able to step up to the plate.”
