Boxing Esq. Podcast #50 - GoldenBoy's Robert Diaz
My guest on this episode is one of the top matchmakers in the game, Golden Boy\u2019s Robert Diaz.\n\n\xa0\n\nWe discussed how Robert got into the sport through a chance meeting with one of his favorite fighters - Marco Antonio Barrera and how Eric Gomez drafted him to be a matchmaker for Golden Boy out of necessity.\n\n\xa0\n\nWe got into how Robert learned matchmaking on the job and what a typical day in the life of a matchmaker is like.\n\n\xa0\n\nWe talk about how Golden Boy has handled the COVId lockdown on social media-and what their plans are for coming back after the lockdown is lifted. \xa0\n\nRobert broke down GB\u2019s plans for the star fighters and prospects on their roster including Canelo Alvarez, Jojo Diaz, Ryan Garcia, Vergil Ortiz, Xu Can and many more.\n\n\xa0\n\nIt was a great conversation - hope you enjoy!
