Comments Thread For: Arum Counter-Attacks, Rips Andre Berto vs Victor Ortiz

[sapaw]

, what's funny about this he went on about this. And, it was also a shot on HBO. Saying they allow Berto not only babied but overpaid. And, he did all of this while HBO executives were right there in the room.

Arum just don't give a fuck.

I agree with you, it is also a shot on HBO... As much as we hate Arum, but in terms of promoting fights and fighter, no other promoter go near on his caliber except maybe on old days of Don King...

I know this is quite OT, I wonder if next fight of Donaire will still be on HBO coz rumors also floating around that Margacheato vs Cotto also lined up in Showtime sometime in July if Cotto passed Mayorga...

SCUMBAG SENILE Arum needs to SHUT THE *** UP!! Cause he's the 1 that's really ***ing up the sport with his "IN HOUSE ONLY TOURNAMENTS" & when he has World Champions like Juanma, Gamboa & Cotto facing 2nd tier opponents instead of facing REAL TOP OF THE LINE challenges!!! & also when Berto said that he wanted to fight Cotto & Pacquiao, SCUMBAG Arum(without even talking or negotiating with Berto & his team) said that it was useless cause Berto was GOING TO OVERPRICE HIMSELF!! Well at least now Gamboa is facing Jorge"Coloradito"Solis who is a good solid fighter(but at jr lightweight), so the question is ¿At what weight class are they fighting? Cause Solis is a jr lightweight & Gamboa is campaigning at featherweight...

Weak comeback from Arum. Dibella KOD him and Arum knows it

[Iceta Lives]

I sometimes defend Berto at certain times (given that Welterweight aint the best divsion like it almost used to be a couple years ago) and hate his guts at the same time pretty much. But I can't defend Berto fighting Ortiz like some people are and I don't think it's a good fight.

Fucking Erik Morales is fighting a tougher opponent than Berto is. Lol. And Mike Jones is way better than Victor Ortiz is. As far as the war of words between Dibella and Arum right now, I think Dibella is winning that though. Lol.

Arum is an old jealous POS. This is a great fight. I don't understand what the problem is.

You must be referring to the Cotto fight because the Pac/Mosley fight is gonna be huge. Arum is right though, Berto makes 1.2 million per fight or more, while guys like Donaire make 350K. Berto is a freaking hype job.

Its not gonna beat the 1.3 million ppvs that may v mosley did.

[leonthegee]

wait... you forgot something...

Mayweather vs Margarito.... floyd too scared and quack!
Mayweather vs Cotto... Cotto too far coz he lives in PR!
Mayweather vs Pac.... Floyd on vacation....

yeah, Pac might be fighting Big left overs but alteast he is fighting that Floyd scared to fight! lol

Thats Pacs strategy you drain em, ill fight em.

Berta is a balloon of air he better fight jones next

What's sad is that Bob actually has a legitimate point. But because he is such a hypocrite, he actually makes himself seem quite laughable. Sometimes (and especially in this case) it might be better for ol Bob to keep his trap shut. His contradictions are only making himself look worse.

I AGREE.. Andre Berto Should Fight MIKE JONES,,, that will be His Stepping Stone if he Wants to get a Big Fight in The Future... Berto needs to make Big Name First... to get a -> Mayweather OR Pacquiao Fight... - BIG NAME Means BIG $$$
