Comments like that, don't help at all

You're supposed to be creating, mending ties not severing them

[JDezi4]

Funny how Arum didn't neglect to acknowledge Lopez and Donaire as possible future opponents, while Russell Jr is nothing special... Funny how he found that conclusion "without having seen Russell Jr fight"... Yeah right Bob...

he's only down playing russell cause he's not a top rank fighter. if he was one of arum's fighters u better believe arum would have said how great and magnificent he is

arum is a moron. everyone knows hes extremely biased towards his own stable but he could atleast fake objectivity a little or something. how can anyone take him seriously after he says he never seen the kid fight but just assumes hes all hype?

russell is one of the best prospects in boxing right now, good fundamentals, great athletisism and a great amateur background. hes yet to prove himself at the highest level in the pro ranks but to dismiss him like that is just ignorant.

I feel very sorry for that kid if he is Al Haymon's friend. Remember that old saying "TELL ME WHO YOUR FRIENDS ARE AND I WILL YOU TELL YOU WHO YOU ARE".

And we wonder why we can't get the fight we want.

Russell has never got to the fight and he already collapsed, poor Al Haymon.

And we wonder why we can't get the fight we want.

Never a truer statement
