    You can call Bob all kinds of names. Just don't call him ******. Dude is smart.
    He's been in the game too long and done seen it all.

      I agree he's very clever. I imagine he's the wealthiest promoter.

      He's selfish, greedy, and smart.

            yeah he keeps all the money in house so he can make more

            wouldn't be shocked if he is paying guys extra to take loses against his top fighters, you just never know with Arum

                Without a doubt. Can't blame him.

                It'll be a sad day in boxing that won't soon be forgotten.

                    ok...but most of Arums top fights over the last few years was two Top Rank guys fighting each other, no one ever said he doesn't work with any other promotion but he makes more money when it is just two of his fighters, Golden Boy Promotions is the same way
