Arum Speaks Openly on Victor Ortiz, HBO’s Golden Pact

[swizz]

Arum is all about hate.
I agree with him that ORTIZ did quit but DIAZ is great fighter and
it would be good fight with MALIGNAGGI.

say what its too early too be drinking

[swizz]

exposed lopez i belief juanma has been dominant and will ko his next opponent....ooops his been knockin n****a out so what you talking bout

[Pullcounter]

arum speaking truth.

HBO should make promoters compete for their dates.

[Xcusemymood]

HBO started out very strong, but for the most part, Arum speaks the truth. They constantly make moves that people that know about boxing wouldn't make. Overpaying for Dawson-Tarver II and Williams-Wright are huge mistakes, even if they wanted to secure Chad. Diaz doesn't deserve the criticism though, he lost to the #2 P4P in a great and valiant effort.

HBO needs to hire me to make fights and help them budget their ****. Giving GBP most-all of the dates and having budget issues in the middle of the year is bush league ****.

Now, they don't have any dates for Lopez-Caballero and they don't have much money for a Pavlik fight. Dawson, Williams, Arreola, and Berto will still fight this year on HBO so they probably don't want to mess with Arum too much.

Check your email! You got the job!

How are you going to compare Cotto and Ortiz's decision to stop fighting? Ortiz knocked the dude down 3 times only to end up quitting 2-3 rounds later.

he makes a point tho, just like winning is winning, quitting is quitting, cotto wuz tagging marg da whole first half of da fight, and at da time he didnt know marg had plaster(noone knows 4 sure), cotto quit on his knees looked at his uncle in da corner and shook his head and said im done, just like victor dude after he couldnt see and was getting rocked by right hands, cotto may have lasted longer but he still quit plain and simple, and marg cheated in da worst way u can in boxing so i dont know y bob arum is so quick to insult other fighters, however he does make valid points underneath da insults

This past Saturday, Golden Boy Promotions was promoting a HBO televised event at Staples Center in California with Victor Ortiz-Marcos Maidana on top. Also on the same night, their promotional rival, Top Rank, was promoting the Latin Fury 9 pay-per-view in Atlantic City. When the news hit Atlantic City, that Ortiz had been stopped by Maidana in six rounds, there was a lot of talk among media members in Atlantic City, regarding the business relationship between Golden Boy and HBO - and the consistent hits to Golden Boy‘s stable of fighters.

arum is right about hbo jumping the gun giving gbp all those slots,& he is also right that hbo will not be showing the best fights because arum has the best stable.one thing arum has to do is shut his mouth.I watch his juanma card this weekend & it ******!juanma hasn't beat anyone yet & the venue it was in(Caesars palace)wasn't anywhere near capacity.lots of great close to the ring seats available.he's got work to do as well.

[joe strong]

arum said fields(when promoting him)could knockout valuev & both klit,he also cut down both mccline & arreola after their fight saying it was embarrassing to see 2 fat guys fight.this coming from the man who brought us butterbean...he's a clown,a rich clown at that thou.

Hey dumbass, I bet if i hit you with plaster of paris you would be flat on you back unlike COTTO kneeling...Margarito fought ****** and thats why he got beat by Mosley. Margarito should have watch the tapes of WRIGHT/MOSLEY AND FORREST/MOSLEY, cause those two guys put Mosley into tears and discouragement on his face.

Winky and Forrest are/were great boxers in their prime. Margarito is a natural swarmer/pressure fighter which is tailor made for Mosley's style. No way in hell Margarito could have fought any way like Wright or Forrest, that's nuts.

Dumb ******ed ****sucker comparing Cotto to Ortiz, you are the one who's the ***ing clown. Now go shove your Mayweather action figure up your ass, shut the *** up and leave the boxing talk to men.

Does your mommy know how much you curse on the web?

Leave the boxing talk to men? that means i can't leave it to you?

Men don't talk like you do on-line, you curse every poster out in all of your replies. You wanna talk about men, you need to grow up and learn how to speak in a more manly way, then talk about leaving things to men. Cursing is something bitches resort to.
