Comments Thread For: Bob Arum, 93, primed for business as usual after shrugging off COVID scare

Arum is gonna outlive everybody.


But to have 30+ shows is kinda crazy considering how thin his roster is at the moment

" For now, Top Rank fighters are keeping themselves busy on streamed club shows like one this weekend in Long Beach, California. Later next month, WBO 126lbs titlist Rafael Espinoza will headline a November 15 card in San Luis Postol, Mexico that includes the company’s promising talents, junior-welterweight Emiliano Vargas and heavyweight Richard Torrez Jnr."

Any info on how to watch this? Specifically the nameless show this weekend?

Congrat to Bob Arum and Top Rank for developing yet another fighter who eventually rose to superstardom in Terence Crawford.

Bob Arum - an amazing career - would like to hear more of his thoughts about life away from boxing and specifically those about health - if you look at him he doesn't have any kind of impressive physique or even close to it - a short squat, plump guy - but the energy levels are insane - flying all over the world and almost monthly

How many 93 year olds you know, let alone that are RUNNING a company? That's insanity. My wife's had patients far younger in her healthcare facilities where most of their marbles have long left them and they're running on auto pilot. Impressive to still see folks over 90 sharp as a tack. Impressive too that he could have clearly retired years ago yet still keeps working for his love of the sport and the job itself. He seems the kind that just likes interacting with people, of all ages, of all race. Man will be missed when he's gone because, regardless what you think now, looking back at it, he's put on some incredible fights of the past.

Gummies are a fountain of youth for that man....................................Laid back and making deals...

I still believe that the Bobfather and Top Rank land on Netflix

the Bob Arum vs Don King one round battle of the 93 year olds PPV could do big numbers in this day and age of joke events. )

Tagline (pun) for that mythical matchup: "Battle Of The Aged"
