    Bob just doesn't give a f-ck. But he still gets a pass from b1tchazz journalist like steve Kim.

    You know what. I'm not mad at bob. He said what he says and people still believe him. As a promoter he will prob go down as the GOAT.

      how many of ali's opponents in his prime were expected to beat him?

      mayweather's? leonard's? robinson's? duran's?

      get the picture.

      when you're a great fighter , few are expected to beat you.

      that's how it works.

      what you do is fight top ranked opponents or known named opponents.

      boxing newbs.

            The cash cow is getting milked. Once the cash cow stops spewing milk, the cash cow is gonna be sent to the slaughter. Then the owner of the cash cow will be selling the meat.

            That's how it works with Bob Arum, always has.

                Why are u making such a big deal about it? Hardcore boxing fans like u doesn't need a old guy like arum to tell u what fights is gonna be good or not.. If u feel it's not gonna be a good match up then dont buy it what's so hard about that??

                    LMAO...he is essentially saying that he knows the majority of Pac fans are idiotic fanboys and aren't actual boxing fans, so he can sell them whatever he wants. I strongly agree with him that people pay to see pac, not boxing. Philippines is so pathetic at every sport on the planet (look at their olympic medal count for a good laugh) that all the Pinoy (12th largest country in the world) are naturally going crazy because one is finally good at something!

                      Arum made it into an art form. King perfected it.
