    Who is your favourite promoter of all time?

    Mine would have to be Don King, because he has the coolest haircut, he always has a smile on his face and waving flags around.




    Who is yours and why?

      Lou Dibella because he cares more about the sport of boxing than $$$$. Arum and King only see $$$.

      I really like Lou and hope he gets a lot of great talent in the future because that guy really loves Boxing and wants to help it.

          Don King is the definition of Boxing Promoter, whether you like him or hate him, you must respect him.

              i might have said DiBella (for the same reasons as above) or Don King

              but it has to be Bob Arum... the guy has been the most consistent for so many years... yes he does "in-house" a bit too much but with his roster looking better everyday this might not be a bad thing

              but the main reason why he gets my vote is what i read the other day about Genaro Hernandez who is currently battling very aggressive cancer...

              He said that Bob Arum has been quietly funding his trips to the medical centre for treatment (after his insurance declined to pay for it) despite having NEVER promoted Genaro (therefore he never made him no money).

              Genaro said that one of the bills was for over $17,000 but Arum has been taking care of it.

              I know people think he's a snake and maybe he is... but that is PURE CLASS

                  I am a big fan of Kalle Sauerland, also Ahmet Oner (his actions in Airich/Williams fight were friggin awesome)!
