King sounds off about Arums $12M bid!

August 18, 2005 - GL: Bob Arum won the purse-bid for Vitali Klitschko-Hasim Rahman. You came in second place at the bid with about a million less. How do you feel about the result of the purse-bid? "I feel that the purse-bid was a collaboration between Shelly Finkel and Bob Arum. It's evident. Bob Arum is one of the most intelligent people I know and there's no way Bob Arum would put up $12M for Rahman and Klitschko unless someone was underwriting the cost and that he had some kind of deal with them. One thing I do appreciate and I applaud Shelly Finkel for his serpentine ways, because he's a master of deceit and lies. I wasn't prepared for Bob Arum's advent. Bob Arum has no heavyweights at all. Bob Arum would never put up $12M for a fight that he has no resiliency in and have no recuperative values for him to go with. Out of the blue Todd DuBoef shows up and bids $12M for the fight and it's utterly ridiculous. I have to smile though so I applaud him too because Bob Arum has exacted something from Shelly Finkel that Shelly Finkel will live to regret. Bob Arum does not come cheap and Bob Arum is going to make them pay by giving some options on future promotions or maybe if he wins maybe they'll become partners or something. But when he loses, all bets will probably be off."

Ooooh. So that's how everything works

I'm not ashammed to say I never knew that.

Anyway, Arum > King.

King syas that if Vitaliy wins, he won't let him unify the belts.

King is a dirty playing SOB!

Now he is trying to turn "America" against Vitali because he is Ukranian LOL

Pathetic! Boxing is an international sport...

King, Whipe that snout of yours and move on!

agree 100%

[jack_the_rippuh]

I think it's because Vitali doesn't want to deal with him.
You see how much of a nuthugger Don King is towards his fighters regardless of their nationalities. Example : Golota.

...Harsh as hell but oh so true!!

If I was Vitali I would be watching out a week or so before the fight for some cars trying to hit him or something and the food he eats and hotels and so on. The day of the fight he better know exactly which water bottles are his and which Don King planted.
