That article is a joke. Why should Mr Gold be judged for the actions of Bodogs CEO. Clearly that has nothing to do with any sponsorship deal.

Glancing through a couple of the other posts, it seems the site might have an issue with Bodog.

On the other hand, it's fair to question Gold's resume. I'd like to know if it's fabricated. Although, I have trouble believing someone like Chan would associate themselves with him if he wasn't who he said he was.

It's probably accurate for the most part. I think it was worse on Bodog than Gold.

Did Gold really present himself as such? A lot of Hollywood types claim to be producers based on one little film or something. It seems like he is a pretty successful agent, but not a big time one representing big stars for percentages of their huge fees.

From his own website: "Gold is known for discovering, nurturing, and launching the careers of some of the most respected and successful artists in the entertainment business."

Such as?

I think, like many "producers" and "agents" out here, he's stretching the truth waaay past believibility.
