      seriously you guys have no idea wtf you guys are talking about.

      i suggest researching this topic before you talk.

      king has been out of the limelight for a bit and it seems like people have short memories or just don't know ****.

        that's how the business works.

        i never understand the criticism of promoters trying to make money.

        that's their job.

          even in topics like this some posters' ****** fanatic side prevail. they jump into conclusions even without enough information to really understand the issue but whatever is to the advantage of their idol gets their support. classic example of blind fanaticism.

            I was just about to quote Tua, but this line says exactly what I was thinking.

            Truth!

            Edit: Matter of fact, I will highlight your whole statement.

              King is by far worse. Both are legendary promoters who did great for the sport in their day, but King has always had a reputation for screwing over his fighters badly and Arum hasn't. Not to mention Arum continues to give us household names like Mayweather and Pacquiao and King isn't doing so much recently.

                    Lawyers are trained to say what ever it takes to win while Bodyguards are paid to protect. Both will cut throat. But at least the bodyguard is not trying to BS you while they do

                      ironically, most of them are also the same posters who like to brag about how they are the real boxing fans.
