This fool is like 9000 years old he should be at a point when he wants to spend his last few years on this Earth with his family and enjoy the wealth he has accumulated. It seems there is not enough money in his pocket to quench his lust for money. He is forcing upon us stupid redundant in house top rank fights such as Rios vs Alvarado 2 and Pacquiao vs Marquez 5 yep u heard right number 5! I bet he already has plans for a number 6 SMFH.
What are your opinions on Arum, I think he smiles alot for the cameras but is probably as bad as don king. And why hasnt his health detiriorated in like 20 years? Prognosis? Hes a cyborg.
He's worse than Don King. At least Don made fights happen. This stingy ass hole only cares about making money for him self and f**k everything else.
Maybe he's worse from a fan perspective lately but I'm not sure boxers would agree he's worse than King. Arum looks after his fighters, they respect him, most have no respect for Don King.
When Arum dies, Top Rank will crumble like a pack of cards.
Arum IS Top Rank. When he stops so does Top Rank.
You don't get to the top of the game by being a nice guy.
Arum is dirty, but I still respect him. He's been a part of boxing for a long time and has made a lot of guys into superstars over the years.
Can't really fault him for being very good at what he does.
After Rigo-Donaire and Rios-Alvarado II, Top Rank can burn to the ground for all I care.
I'm not even sure what's taking Golden Boy so long to take over the throne. Top Rank still seems to be the top powerhouse in boxing despite the lack of a decent stable.
I prefered Juan and Manny to go home and let the young guys coming up have a bigger slot! However the bouts between those two are certainly NOT boring, they both get in great condition and come to fight. All the bouts were competitive! Even Manny getting stopped was NOT a lopsided fight, he had Juan in deep trouble the round prior to the end. They were both landing shots and the bout was exciting!!! You know what your going to get action wise!
I worked on Bob Arum shows and he is extremely intense and wants every detail to come off correctly. He is NOT cheap with his expenses and his per-dium is more than fare! Theres alot of talk on this thread alone thats ridiculous but thats what happens when people who have NEVER worked for the guy talk out of their butts!! :rolleyes: Ray.
There are people on this site who, if they had double the intelligence they do have, wouldn't even be as smart as any half-wit. Nothing you or I, or anything anybody can say will change their deep prejudices and love for hounding scapegoats, like the cowards they are. They hide behind their keyboards (probably stolen) and denigrate better men than they could ever be.
Just think that these creatures are allowed by lavish Social Welfare payments to bring children into the world, where they will be an additional burden on the taxpayer, and end up in gaol like they probably already have been or most certainly will.
Arum doesn't even know that they are alive, and, maybe they really aren't. Sick.

I see that you jump on to that same old sterotype money-hungry Jew thing.... At least Arum does lots of good things with his money. What do you do, apart from scooting down to the liquor store. And don't you know that he's arguably the best boxing promoter in history.
You are showing that you know very little, and surely it's just a coincidence that you have a pciture of a clown prominently displayed as your image....
arum is one of the most driven non participants in the history of boxing. you guys overstate his "greed," and underrated his commitment to top rank.
a guy like that will go until he dies. if he stopped working his life would end quickly. believe it. he might even die at an arena, if he never becomes bedridden or hospital bound.
frankly, most of you will never leave a legacy worth building to until the very end in anything outside of your family lives, which is fine. that's a noble pursuit.
some men accomplish more than that.
Your clearly a butthurt pac "fan" that almost killed himself when his idol went night night, dont you remember manny himself had shirts that said finished business? they both wanted a conclusive ending and said there wudnt be a 5th fight.
I'm a boxing fan, I don't go around making threads to cry about the rematches of the 2 best fights of 2012.
He is a shrewd businessman and yes he is a fake, he smiles for the cameras but the moment you say or do something he doesn't like he becomes a monster. Even Don King feared Arum, he told a story about when Arum got pissed off he would make people get scared, his whole face and eyes and voice would change and he would curse you out.
Just remember when he told Nacho and JMM to stop crying and they were ****ing up the sport? He also got mad when someone made fun of Hilary Clinton supporting Kelly Pavlik, Arum is a die hard democrat and the guy who made the joke was thinking Arum would laugh because Arum was making fun of republicans but Arum didn't like it and yelling that is BullSh1t! and got super pissed off and told the guy that it wasn't funny or a joke.
I would say the majority of the boxing promoters are slimey guys, Gary Shaw, Don King, Bob ARum, the ones who are cool like Lou Dibella, Kathy Duva, Dan Goossen, Hearn, they are all small time and not on that level, it seems in order to be the top dog in boxing you have to be evil the good guys like the ones I listed below never get to the top like Arum, Golden Boy, King, Shaw.
You forgot about Frank Warren. He was a major ******* too.
Don't want to be one of those tin-foil hat people but. No disrespect to them. They are some of the hardest working people on Earth, but maybe to a fault as you say since Arum damn near single handedly has a stranglehold on the sport.
is hava nagila hebrew for gotta get more money?
PS: I dislike Arum because he is a huge reason why alot of big fights dont get made like FM Jr vs Pac and Mares vs Donaire.

Donaire needs to get rid of this old snake before it's too late. Can't believe he wants to do Donaire vs Darchinyan again. Young and promising fighters would be better off without this old scumbag. All he wants is recycle garbage fights. Well, not necessarily garbage, but you get the point.

Arum has become a lazy promoter. He prefers rematches so he doesn't have to do anything. He'll just let the fighters promote themselves. He's also getting tons of money doing them. I suspect he made tons and tons of money in the JMM/Pac 4 and he hasn't even declared the PPV numbers in that fight. Why, because he's keeping it secret from Team Pacman.
He makes alot of money because there all inhouse top rank cards. Im surprised he hasnt pushed for bradley vs pacman 2. and I wudnt be surprised if he has Pacquiao on some slave contract, wud explain the whole ummm ummm my promoter decides wut ummmmm underwear i wear.
Is Alvarado-Rios II really a bad thing?
Yes...Rios proved he was better already just another stupid in house Old greedy _ _ _ Arum fight. Just another fight where theyll beat some more prime out of each other that cudda been spent fighting other fighters or for title bouts.

What promoter wouldn't make Pac JMM 5? Pac wants it, fans want it, JMM wants that massive payday. All win, why the crying?
