"I am very excited to be putting this event on.  This is an opportunity to do a few things all at once and that is to keep fighters busy, put them in competitive bouts, and introduce some stars of the future.  With Best In Boxing, we can showcase our fighters around the world and when you look at the matchups for September 5th, you can see how competitive and entertaining these fights will be," said Jorge Toscano of Toscano Promotions.
 
"We are working with promoters to assure top quality and exciting fights that fight fans are looking for," said Armando Bereno of Global Sports Streaming.  "Getting to know, and working with Toscano Boxing Promotions has been like a breath of fresh air. They believe 100% in bringing entertaining competitive fights to fight fans and they live by that every fight card. Jorge Toscano's number one goal is to develop top-level fighters while bringing action fights to the fight fans. Jorge is a fan first and so he wants to deliver fights that he wants to watch.  I talked to a lot of promoters about how they could make money in this new pandemic environment and it was clear we had to go to a pay-per-view model to keep relevant. The business of boxing requires smaller promoters to make money off of their live gate and without that they have a choice to not do shows or go online with their product. Here at GSS, we stepped up to bring the service of pay per view to promoters.  We believe that fight fans will pay to support their fighters if we create entertaining shows for them. Toscano already produced great fights before the pandemic and so PPV is just an extension of what they already do."More bouts will be announced.
