Golden Boy Promotions, led by Oscar De La Hoya, has officially announced its partnership with the YouTube Theater.
De La Hoya expressed his desire to make the YouTube Theater the new home for boxing.
The YouTube Theater is a 6,000-seat music and theater venue that opened in Inglewood, California, USA, on August 9, 2021. Following the announcement of the partnership, Golden Boy Promotions has already organized one tournament at the YouTube Theater – a matchup between Gilberto Ramirez and Arsen Goulamirian.
In this fight, Ramirez became the first Mexican in history to be a champion in the cruiserweight division (up to 90.7 kg). Goulamirian, entering the ring undefeated and having held the WBA title since 2018, faced his challenge at the YouTube Theater.
