    Bob Arum Blasts De La Hoya Over Pacquiao-Cotto Blog

    The feud between promotional competitors Top Rank and Golden Boy Promotions will always be alive and well. In a recent interview with Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports, Top Rank's owner Bob Arum blasted Oscar De La Hoya, president of Golden Boy Promotions. Arum took offense to De La Hoya's recent blog that ran on the Ring Magazine's online website. De La Hoya penned an opinion blog about next Saturday's mega-fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto. Both fighters are under the Top Rank banner. [details]

    Uhh, Bob you are on record saying you have had preliminary talks with mayweather regarding pacman. And sources have confirmed that you have had talks with jerry jones regarding mayweather-pac in march at cowboy stadium. So dont give us that bs about not favoring one fighter over the other.

        The ring size comment from DLH was too far though......20x20 is standard....so to say that Bob is using the ring size to give Pac an "advantage" is a bit much.....

          He's mad because Oscar made a prediction?

          What a ****head

          Edit: Oscar did talk out of his ass if it's they're gonna use a standard size ring.

            It's OK uncle bob, we already know who you're rooting for.

            I'm going for Manny too.

                  Yeah, his beef is legit. Oscar talked out of his ass on an important subject.

                  He accused Arum of tilting the odds in Pacquiao's favor when he promotes both fighters. You have to have your facts straight when you're talking about **** like that.
