The sport didn't make him a fortune. He could have made a fortune in anything he chose to do. What he DID do was make a fortune for many of the fighters whom he promoted. He looks after his fighters. It was HE who insisted on not allowing Erik Morales to fight again because Morales told him he heard bells in his head when he was hit. In YOUR crappy sort of life, that was throwing away money. ARUM....NEVER!
He could have been one of the nation's top lawyers, head of a 3-400 lawyer law firm making multi-millions a year.
He was a legal advisor for Robert Kennedy for several years, until Kennedy was assassinated. How come you don't blame Arum for THAT?? Maybe you do, it's like you.Comment

Sorry what does this have to do with arum refusing to work with other promoters and in turn that hurting the sport of boxing?The sport didn't make him a fortune.

I'm sorry, but Golden Balls soes NOT "get top billing". The ruling was that in a promotion in which Manny P was fighting a Golden Balls fighter, the Golden Balls would be entitled to a share in the promotion. I am not sure that what amount the share was decided, but I don't think it was a 50-50 deal.any fight between pac and a golden boy fighter and golden boy promotions gets top billing based on the court order when manny jumped ship for that brief period so of course arum isn't gonna let that happen with a huge fight like pac-mayweather. if mayweather was with king the fight might get made if floyd wasn't scared.Comment

I would have thought it was quite simple to understand for smeone who can read, as you onviously can. My reply concerns the unjust castigation of Arum because he was not considering the sport which made him a forune.
The tenor of the post was as if it was only Arum who'se fortune was made by thr sport, and although really about a fight between two others who are never named, the only name mentioned was that of Arum, the least culpable, if any "blame" was to be apportioned.
it's public knowledge that Arum tried to make the fight in question many, many times, and always failed because of the negative and reluctant attitude of one of the fighters. he even involved others asking them to help, and indeed their help exposed the "reluctant" fighter as a bare-faced liar.

i really wish this gbp top rank feud would end. i really do. for one it will end this instant excuse of not fighting because of a different stable. it should open the floodgates of a possible floyd-margarito fight, for exampel. or cotto-mayweather.Comment

really dont know how someone couldve gotten that from the post in question ... but nevertheless arum has some culpability in the breakdown between promotional companies. level of responsibility can be argued. and super-fight aside it would be in the best interest of us the fans and the sport as a whole that the 2 largest promotional companies end this feud and begin a working relationship once again.I would have thought it was quite simple to understand for smeone who can read, as you onviously can.

in house fights work for awhile but pacs two last opponents and a grim looking possibility of future opponents is evidence of that.Last edited by -Boxzilla-; 04-20-2011, 10:56 PM.Comment

*******s don't want to see that Arum doesn't want to make a fight with other promoters. It's either an in-house fight, or nothing.He has no intention what so ever of makIng one of the biggest fights in history thats worth the most money, WHLIE BOTH FIGHTERS ARE AGEING AND GETTING PAST THERE PRIMES
Lets bear in mind there is virtually no one else out there to fight and yet he still puts him in there with no-hopers?
REASON: Bob Arum knows that pac attracts a large crowdS of single minded pac fans who know nothing about the sport and only worship manny as there idol, EVERY TIME MANNY GETS A W AGAINST A SHOT/OLD/LOSING STREAK FIGHTER, THERE **** GETS A LITTLE HARDER, THEY SCREAM HIS NAME A LITTLE LOUDER AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, HIS BANK BALANCE GETS BIGGER
For this reason Arum will NEVER put manny in against someone who has a chance to beat him, EVER!!
You want Pacquiao? sign with Top Rank or be a Free Agent.
Pac fans are so naive, I don't know why can't they just see through Arum's BS.
Arum wants 100% of promoter money, he doesn't want to split it with other promoters. Only promoter he'll work with is Don King and that's it.
This is why Mayweather vs Pacquiao will never happen, not while Arum is alive.Comment
