Bob Arum clearly doesn’t control the WBO

[ShaneMosleySr]

I never want to hear this narrative ever again after the last two WBO purse bids.

[Mammoth]

Nah, he clearly has sway over them

[ShoulderRoll]

Herring wanted too much maybe, and Arum put in a call to his good buddy Paco Valcarcel to give Stevenson the lion's share of the purse.

[buddyr]

The WBO is only relevant as a main title due to promoting former Arum fighters as multi division champions (DLH and Pac)

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

WBO will be forever grateful for guys like Arum and Warren who massively helped legitimise the organisation. Arum unquestionably still has sway with WBO.

The calculation is done via the respective fighters last 3 purses, but still this should never be like that in this case, too one sided for the challenger, a challenger who isn’t a big ticket seller yet, none was he a massive name.

This is definitely a new situation. Until the Crawford vs Porter split, I do not recall this ever happening. Looks like it is just starting to trickle down now. Kinda effed up in the case of Herring though.

Bob Arum doesn't even have control over his own bowel movements at this point

[just the facts]

Stupid, even for a complete moron like you.

[ShaneMosleySr]

Why would Bob Arum give Porter a 40-percent cut and Herring a 33-percent cut?

TIA just the nonsense.
