    When King comtrolled the HW's of the late 70's through early 90's, Arum had all the smaller guys. There are thousands of great fights in there.

    Step your motherfcuking game up kid. You're a fcuking embarassment.

    last 20 years have been a **** show with top rank and just because fights eventually got made you leave out all the BS it took. pac v floyd took 5 years to make because he held a grudge. don king held a grudge with lennox lewis just the same.

    Mosley, Cotto and JMM had to manuever and jump back and forth from top rank just to get their fights with both floyd and pacquaio because it takes an act of congress to get arum to work with haymond

      I don't know if you realize this or not, but there has been like this GLOBAL PANDEMIC thing the last year or so. Don't you see this has completely impacted the sport, but you're dumb cuck arse will just argue that off too, do it!

      Crawfish keeps asking for big paydays and nobody cares, he's not exciting enough and they can't get the money investors to back him. Crawfish has less personality than a jelly fish and he doesn't make any waves. Not Bobs fault, it's Crawfish fault. Bob loves money and if Crawfish could make money he would be all over it. He's pricing himself out.

      Teo has 16 fights kid, chill the fcuk out and honestly, he's trying to screw Top Rank with his extremely high demands. You acting like Bob been railroading the kid for years. He's 16-0 and wants 10 million a fight. ARE YOU FCKING HIGH ON ****??? Manny at his peak was getting 12 million dollar purses with ppv upsides. The money isn't there so what is Bob gonna do, lose money??

      Like, what are you even doing here? Absolutely zero knowledge, you're like some weirdo fairweather fan trying to act like you know what you're talking about.
      Lol Bob is losing the plot. You seem to have a crush on the old crispy fart for some weird reason. He is threatening promoters to not act like promoters, he is threatening his own fighters for trying to earn more than the bare minimum which is what he wants to pay them, he is blocking undisputed fights in more than one division and has been openly lying to the Boxing media and fans just to try get one over on a rival promoter even though everybody can see right through him.

      So good on him for making good fights in 1731 but the old crispy fkk turd IS LOSING THE PLOT.

        I think 20 years is a bit lofty there. Arum never wanted to make the Floyd fight because it would kill Manny's stock and in turn kill his return on Manny. He had Manny locked in at 28% which is probably the biggest piece of pie in history on any one fighter. If I was Bob, I would have done the same exact thing.

        Those other Floyd fights had zero to do with Al, come on man you got to know by now that Floyd swore he would never do business with Bob ---> he's said it a 100 times. In the end he did the Manny fight but that was so big he had to.

          Speak English you dogwank puff.

          He's made the best fights, sorry if that seems gay to you.

          Like I said, you'll never admit defeat now you're going to go as far back as 1731, you're a concussed plonker aintcha?

            Yet outside of Spence, Bud has earned more than any other active PBC fighter south of cruiserweight. Teo is undisputed as was Bud. Bob may be a crude and shifty promoter, as they all are, but he gets fights made and has developed many a star.

              So how is Bud a star when he can't even sell 150K pay per views. How has Bob made Teo a star when he has to go outside Top Rank to earn? I think the previous poster has said that Bob is doing nothing NOW to promote his fighters and he is right. Bob might hate Haymon but he is doing exactly the same thing, keeping his network deal at the expense of his fighters.

              Both Arum and Haymon are keeping their fighters purses lower or avoiding fights to ensure that those fighters stay on their networks. No difference between the two and I think most fans regard Haymon as a cancer to boxing and if that is the case, then Bob is in the same category.

                Arum has come to realize he can’t move Bud any further. Part of it is frustration that PBC won’t do business with him, and that Crawford just doesn’t have any star appeal. He’s an excellent fighter but he hasn’t had that marquee opponent yet.

                Teo could have had fights in house. He refuses a rematch with Loma and he is throwing shade at Haney, and talking about a move to 140.
