    Is Arum considering retirement after his terrible loss?

    Hes 78 years old. A multi millionaire, and hes promoted Hall of Famers and ATG's.

    After this loss given all that he accomplished do you think he will retire and be more family orientated. He's been a promoter for decades.

    i doubt it, he will definately be off for a long time, but he is a promoter its what he loves to do, i dont think its too much of a demanding job tbh (as in physically) so i doubt it, think he will wanna be part of the sport until he is incapable of doing so, besides that guy at the pac-marg conference representing top rank sounds like an annoying ****......

      actually that annoying **** could be the future of boxing, man. That was Todd duBoef. Read this article on him by Thomas Hauser:



      whenever bob arum calls it a day, this is the guy we should be excited about taking over top rank.

        i thought he shouldve retired a long time ago. he's been mismanaging almost all of his fighters careers.

        pac, kelly pavlik, donaire, humberto soto, juan ma, they all have been mismanaged by arum.

          He's made them all richer. Am I missing something? Sure they aren't ALL champions but that's not really his job now is it?

            The thing is this, I know that once a old person stops working they start to fade away literally. Staying busy for people like Bob Arum and Don King is what keeps them Alive and Healthy.

            For his own sake (eventhough) I don't care for Arum too much, he really should continue to work. Keep himself busy and distracted from his personal turmoil he must be enduring right now.

                It's possible. I don't like Arum but I sympathize with him over this.
