    Bob Arum is the dirtiest promoter in boxing

    He played Hearn like a tennis play.

    The arbitrator is his buddy & he knew what the end game would be but played along while he secretly booked a PPV slot in Vegas.

    Told Fury to announce the undisputed the night before the judgement.

    Told Warren to go to press to mention $20million as step aside money today.



    Let's be honest, arbitration doesn't really stop the undisputed & they can go ahead with the undisputed granted it happens before Sep. 15 & give Sulaiman of WBC some money. WBC can sanction the fight independently.

    But Arum won't let Hearn outshine him & he's teaching him the game to show him he's superior.

    To eat with the old men, you have to earn your stripes. And Hearn is getting schooled badly now.

    It's also a duck from Fury.

      I’m not sure

      would they spend 6 months of extortionate lawyer fees doing contracts, and lose out on a cut of the biggest money fight in boxing, into the 100s if millions, just to stitch up Hearn?

      These people are not millionaires by throwing money away like that and leaving $150m+ fights on the table.

      Even Eddie said it’s a bizarre decision the case went in Wilder’s favour.

      It seems like they’ve just totally misjudged the situation or felt almost certain Wilder didn’t have a leg to stand on.

        Don King is washed up.

        He couldn't even stop the fight in Germany last week.

          Arum is a lawyer. His son is a lawyer. Top Rank has lawyers. What lawyer was he spending money on?

          Arbitrator is also his close friend.

          Why did he book a PPV slot & a site in Vegas for July 24 secretly?

          Fury was also in on it & his shenanigans since the beginning of the year proved that.

          Hearn doesn't want to look like a fool hence he said it's bizarre. Why would it be bizarre if he doesn't know the content of the deal?

          He knows he got played & he needs to take the L.

              I think you might be reading too much into it.

              Booking a date and venue is just smart buisness. Where would he be at right now had he not? at the mercy of everyone else.

                But Bruce Trampler was saying Fury had a July PPV date a few days BEFORE the arbitration ruling. Having a plan B or C is one thing, but why would he say that before the judge even ruled in Wilder's favor?

                Arum is no fool, he knows when the judge is not feeling his arguments and knows what comes next.

                  Fury is the dirtiest fighter (lying) in the sport, so they make a good couple.
