Bob Arum is the dirtiest promoter in boxing

People are reading too much into it. They had to have a plan B, they could not reply fully on the Saudis coming through with the money, hence why they also had to make other plans, Andy Lee and John Fury was talking about Tyson fighting in June/July with or without AJ.
So no its nothing to do with Arum purposely happy to lose out on Major money from those AJ fights. Do you know how much less they would be making from a 3rd Wilder fight?

I doubt it was just to school Eddie, but I'm sure that helps.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.
If they lost he had Wilder. If they won he had Joshua. They took a situation where they were the ones being taken to court, and yet made it into a situation where they were the only party who couldn't lose!
You could call it masterful. In reality it's very slimy.
And yes, if they don't fight Joshua it's still a duck. Undisputed is there for them if they want it.
