Arum Shoots on MMA, Mayweather, De La Hoya

[pesticid]

WHat do you mean? He made Morales, DLH, PBF and Cotto a lot of money. Cotto fights at welter and has more money in his bank acct than all of the champs in the UFC. I think they have 4, one for each division.

Arum is no joke! look at golden boy arum is even willing to do businesws with them to get the big fights with pacquiao but that greedy proudful swiss banker is acting like a jerk saying no he wont negotiate with arum unless he hands over pacquiao.

Goldenboy didnt want pacquiao they conned him into signing a contractw hen he was half asleep and showed him a suitcase of money.

This Is The First Time Ive Ever Agreed With Arum...

Couldn't have said it better myself!

"And their product stinks. It's just awful. Most of their participants come from wrestling, or karate backgrounds, and are just terrible boxers.''

Why does he compares wrestler and boxers in boxing?

Why don't he compares Boxers and wrestlers in wrestling, kickboxers and boxers in kickboxing, BJJ practitioner and a boxer in BJJ tournament? You guys see the logic?

He thinks Boxing is the center of universe or what? C'mon Arum open your eye and realize that there is more in fighting than boxing alone.

He should critize himself before everyone/everything if Boxing is going downhill.

Brilliant. You took the words out of my mouth. But the thing is, he favors his side and apparently, he thinks everything revolves around boxing. If that was Dana white, then he would make MMA the center of the universe like what Arum did. Thats just the way it goes..

Dont listen to this fool. Hes part of the problem.

Dont listen to this fool. Hes part of the problem.

WORD!! It's funny how many are brainwashed by what a Master Scam Artist spits out. But, I have to agree w/ Arum on one thing, on how much more the UFC spends so much on advertising. I mean, look at the money spent on DLH - Mayweather Jr. ads/promos and it ended up being the biggest PPV ever. Yep, boxing needs to focus more on marketing the **** out of boxing

lol Arum said Q Rampage Jackson cant box well anyone agree..i think he's an OK boxer haha.

marketing and putting on exciting fighters rather then boring guys.

they need to build up cotto, pavlik, pacquiao,valero etc...

put the defensive cuteys on the undercard.

Now I understand.. It is very clear that these big time boxing promoters have their tails between their legs because of what UFC has become. I fear the future of boxing.. If only we can get rid of the speedy jabbing hugging Ruiz Mayweather kinda fighters and have more Pacquiao and Pavlik and Gatti and Cotto then VIOLA! ANOTHER GOLDEN AGE FOR THE ANCIENT SPORT

Arum is talking sense in what he says but at the end of the day we can all help change boxing for the better.
