Comments Thread For: Arum: Triller Can Buyout Teofimo Lopez's Contract If They Like Him So Much, We Made $800K In 5 Minutes

He absolutely cares.

yup. he cares and is hurt.

6M is a huge bid. I would've liked to see the fight go to DAZN just to see Arum's head explode, but even Matchroom can't compete with that.

The old man is sour, good grief. And it just goes to show that Boxing is still the money maker and that's why you all these dudes trying to get their foot in the door. If UFC was such commodity you wouldn't have Fat Dan trying to get into boxing as well. I remember in the mid-2000s and 2010s everyone was claiming that the UFC was going to take over combat sports, well, I think it's safe to say it didn't happen, UFC has reached it's ceiling. And by no means I'm not saying UFC isn't profitable, but the Million buy's they get here and there ( mostly if Mcgregor fights) is the best they can do, not to mention they charge less than boxing, so it's less money. All I'm saying, Boxing is still King in 100+ years of history, I know I'll get responses from the UFC fans, but don't bother, you can talk to me when the UFC holds both PPV and live gate records, otherwise....

Million here and there? Every PPV event held last year hit well over a million buys with the exception of one. Just because someone puts up 6 mil doesn’t mean it’ll hit one million buys. Unless Nelo, Pac-Man or a big HW fight is happening boxing isn’t going to pull a million. You read it here first.

If I were teo I'd take that buyout I a split second

Lol Bob is seriously losing his grip on his fighters and losing the plot full stop. I've been looking forward to these purse bids more than I'm looking forward to the fight itself.

Leicesterage Arum isn't bashing his fighter

Arum literally said "that fight" (aka Teofimo) isn't worth more than they bid.

He also is basically telling Triller to poach his fighter.

You're okay with a promoter doing that?

Don't duck the question. Answer it.

[Combat Talk Radio]

Fighters paying a promoter 20% just so he can insult, disrespect them and tell them that they're not worth much?

And people will defend it like the plague.

How much would it cost to start a boxing league analogous to the UFC or Bellator? Starting small, youd have to start with unsigned fighters but eventually it could grow and push out these promoters. Bob is doing the opposite of promoting his fighters. Hes actually seriously saying his top fighter isnt worth much.

Two of them (Crawford AND Teo).

The only two guys on his stable that stay in the headlines besides Tyson Fury - according to Arum - aren't worth the money. He's PUBLICLY said that about them.

Arum has really become a sour, bitter old man. It's probably time for him and Warren to get out of the game

[ralex]

It really is time for Arum to step down
