Bob Arum is killing this sport - boycott Pacquiao-Cotto

[dans]

How about we all boycott Arum PPVs from here on out? Oh except for Cotto-Pac, not missing that.

I'm definitely watching this fight but I don't think this fight is going to be as monumental as everyone thinks. But some of you guys thought the pac-hatton fight was exciting soooo.... I think at the end of the day Juan Diaz v. Marquez will still be the fight of the year.

While I applaud his comments in regards to MMA,this crusty old **** is hurting a sport I actually care about.After the cancellation of the Kelly Pavlik/Paul Williams fight,Arum has decided to pull out of the card completely.Clottey vs Quintana was a damn good undercard out and both men have now been left without a fight this year,Quintana even pulled out of a fight this weekend to take this fight and Arum has now left him without a payday.This was a selfish act by this crusty old fart and an act which hurts the sport itself.This is also the same man who continue to put unknown quan******(to the general public) on PPV.

This Pacquiao-Cotto undercard sucks,pretty much every card Arum puts out sucks.You should all boycott the Pacquiao-Cotto PPV card otherwise you are not a true boxing fan.Arum is like a wet fart in white pants to this sport.

Arum didn't pull out of the Dec 5 HBO show... when Pavlik dropped out, the date went to Paul Williams and Goossen-Tutor (or perhaps more specifically, Al Haymon). Clottey-Quintana was Arum's fight. Since Haymon... um, Goossen is now the lead promoter, he gets to decide who fights in the co-feature, which is why we now get Arreola-TBA.

What I would like to see is Clottey-Quintana bumped up to November 14 to save the ******** of an undercard. It's a non-title fight, so they can easily adjust the weight to whatever each will be comfortable making three weeks earlier than their original target date.

If not that, then find a smaller venue in A/C, and let Clottey-Quintana headline a TV Azteca card. I know it's financially unrealistic, but wouldn't hurt for the sport to give back every once in a while. I mean, VERSUS was prepared to air Quintana-Verno Phillips around that same time. How much more could this fight cost?

Well if YOU boycot this fight you are missing one of the best fights in boxing-history;

So far, this has been about as well-received as Buggin' Out's attempt to boycott Sal's.

boycott pac/cotto???

are you ******, dumb, ****** or all three?

bwahahahhaah... j/k... but for real, that's dumb

If we boycotted every fight that had a greedy promoter involved we would never watch another fight again. For that matter we couldn't even watch old fights either since greedy promoters put those up as well.

if not on Nov 14th then why not Nov 13th as well. Arum has a show that night too in LV and its really just Melligen vs Rosales and Sam Peter so adding Quintana vs Clottey to the card would work as the main. Move it to the Joint at Hard Rock and its a great weekend of boxing

heck if Quintana doesn't want to move up how about we just get Clottey moving up his date
