SEGOFIi- Gosh, you're a sick fella really sick, and since this is your first post, you should go back to the sanitarium, or is it the in-sanitarium.....

I tried to read your drebble, out of respect for a fellow poster. but soon succumbed to only skimming through....until I got the the part where Yuri Foreman is a recent convert and practicing rabbi.

You gadit all wrong fellah. he isn't a convert recent or otherwise, but born in the former Soviet area, and an Israeli citizen, he is not yet a rabbi, but studying to be. A rabbi is a teacher, nothing else, a teacher of ***ish Law and Jurisprudence. Rav (or rab) meaning "teacher", and the "i" suffix meaning "my" therefore...."my teacher" or "my master".

Then I skimmed a little further, and saw your diatribe about Arum. And stopped. Yes, you are one sick fella. Are you aware that Anti-Semites are suffering from a serious, almost incurable mental disease?? You should know about this, maybe you can be cured, although the incidence of recovery is lamentably low.

Oh yes, I forgot to tell you, There have been probably thousands of ***ish lawyers from Harvard, quite a few smarter than Arum, you should tell Oscar, if indeed he did say that.

And another thing, you mustn't tell anyone, it's a secret which I am confiding only to you.......Arum is the Grand Whizzie-Dizzy=Pizzy of a secret organization of cunning, long bearded ***s, who are planning to rule the world....


So be careful.......... tell NOBODY!

I don't think he hates him but it sure does seems like he is trying to use him as a stepping stone for Manny, Margarito and Chavez Jr

maybe because Cotto's contract is over at the end of 2011 and it has been all but confirmed that Cotto will jump to Golden Boy Promotions and Cotto has already agreed to start his Promotion Company Under Golden Boy, maybe Arum is trying to RUIN HIM before he leaves, you just never know when it comes to Arum, that is a EVIL SOB!

[jrosales13]

Which one of you Cotto loving nuthuggers created an alt just to write this bull****? Expose yourself immediately!!!

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Its because his Contract is almost up. Which is why he keeps trying to use Cotto as a pawn.

His Foreman-Cotto fight Backfired big time.

When Pac was winidng down his career he woldve fed Pac tpo Edwin Valero. Arum is **** thats what he does.

[ИATAS]

can't believe I read all that trash.

Like others have said, it's about money. Cotto vs Foreman was a win-win situation for Bob Arum. If Foreman wins, he has a new fighter he could promote. Yes, part of the appeal is Foreman is ***ish. If Cotto wins, well you obviously are seeing a possible Cotto vs Pacquiao or Cotto vs Margarito fight or Cotto vs Chavez jr. fight. In any scenario it's a win, win, win situation for Bob Arum.

I would say the opposite about Bob Arum and Cotto though. Cotto has had a WONDERFUL career, a hall of fame career even, and largely that is in part because Bob Arum got him the best fights available. Sure cotto hasn't been protected like some guys out there, but in the end, Cotto always demanded that he fights the best opponents, and that's exactly what he's done.

IMO, Bob Arum did a terrific job with Cotto. He's won multiple belts in multiple divisions, he's fought the biggest names, he became a star, and he still is going to be involved in big fights.

What's to complain about? Isn't that what every fighter dreams for?!?

You must be related to Arum. No wonder you get upset whenever anybody challenges his statements. Either way, your love for the man is unnatural with the way you throw insults at anybody that doesn't worship him like you do. If you are related to him, that explains all of the lies you come up with to defend him. Must be a gene. Here is a little history on your hero:



Arum has been accused of being a racist by Robert Lee, the former president of the International Boxing Federation. Lee said of Arum "I pin the racism charge on him because he once told me: `We will let the Blacks and the Latinos fight in the ring and we will count the money on the outside'." [7]



He has been involved in a forty year feud with Don King, who once called him a "rat fink" in 2000 for admitting during a federal trial that he bribed the International Boxing Federation president in order to gain a more favorable rating for one of his fighters. [1] [2]

He was penalized $125,000 by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in 1995 for a bribe to get one of his fights sanctioned.



Arum has engaged in just about every confidence game one can think of in boxing, from the simple bait-and-switch to flat-out bribery, as was established by the US Department of Justice when he admitted to paying a one hundred thousand dollar bribe to the IBF in 1995 for getting them to approve a George Foremen-Axel Schultz title defense. One of his favorite tricks, though, is what I like to call the “Done Deal” scam.

Its not that Arum hates or loves anyone.... All promoters are the same... whoever produces more money will be his favorite and once this person is not able to produce anymore he just finds another one to replace it...plain and simple is like a car.

[Fearless Angel]

NO NO NO Arum doesn't care if you're black, mexican, filipino,puerto rican, etc. the only color he likes is green $$$$$$.

arum thinks cotto is shot so he wants to use him as a stepping stone for the other fighters of his company. he doesn't care about cotto anymore.

not necessarily arum is racist (maybe he is) but i think right now cotto is sleeping with the devil.

[Dick Buffman]

Cuz Margarito is $.

And Cotto's a bendover *****.
