I have a lot of good fighters, and I am looking to send more to Artie.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am happy to be working with my 1st world champion Otis Grant, and his brother Howard. They have a terrific eye for talent, and Golden will be the 1st of many fighters that we will be working together, to bring to world championships,&#8221; said Banner Promotions President, Artie Pelullo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[AdSense-A] Banner Promotions is proud to announce the signing of undefeated lightweight, Golden Garcia to a promotional contract.
