“Tom Brady Has More Superbowl Wins Than Golden Boy MMA PPVs”: As PFL Raises $303 Million Funding by August 2023, Oscar de la Hoya Revisiting His Promotion Draws “Embarrassing” Remarks From Fans

In the bustling world of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), Oscar De La Hoya stands out like a jazz pianist at a rock concert. A boxing legend. A promoter. An enigma. As MMA sees a financial surge with PFL’s record-breaking $303 million funding by August 2023, De La Hoya is fluttering back into the MMA spotlight. But not as a fighter. Instead, with a provocative tweet hinting at his return as a promoter. Remember Golden Boy MMA? It might jog a memory or two, but only if you dig deep into the annals of MMA’s storied past.

However, what’s more bewildering is not just his subtle announcement but the thunderous reactions it garnered. While De La Hoya has worn many hats, the MMA promoter crown sits a tad tilted. As he contemplates revisiting that chapter, one must wonder: Is MMA ready for another round with De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions? Or, like a shadowboxer in a dimly lit gym, is this all just an illusion?

The Professional Fighters League (PFL) has recently secured an impressive $303 million in funding by August 2023. Further highlighting the growing allure and potential profitability of the MMA market. This surge of investment paints a promising landscape for MMA promoters. Yet, when Oscar De La Hoya took to Twitter suggesting a revisit to his Golden Boy MMA venture, the response from fans was far from encouraging.

Starting off, One fan subtly reminded everyone of past shortcomings, implying that Golden Boy MMA’s previous endeavor left much to be desired.

Similarly, another fan subtly contrasted the league’s past PPV numbers with more successful events, hinting at the relatively lukewarm reception of the Tito vs. Chuck 3 fight.

Drawing an even bolder comparison, one person humorously equates the league’s PPV sales to Tom Brady’s Super Bowl victories. Suggesting the footballer’s successes far outshine those of Golden Boy MMA.

On a different note, another fan expresseed concerns about the league’s fighter selection. Recalling how the promotion once spotlighted aging fighters past their prime.

Wrapping up the chorus of skepticism, another person’s candid message echoeed a sentiment that seems prevalent among fans. Oscar should reconsider any plans of revival. In essence, while the MMA market seems ripe for investment, the legacy of Golden Boy MMA still casts a long shadow.

While Oscar De La Hoya’s enthusiasm and entrepreneurial spirit are unquestionable, it’s evident that fan memories linger, casting doubt over a potential revival. Yet, with the MMA market booming, might there be room for a Golden Boy MMA renaissance?
