Comments Thread For: Arum: DiBella Not Marketing Sergio Martinez Correctly

[sosolid4u09]

martinez is grossly over rated

[TheFrog]

arum would do a much better job..he would put martinez on roids...he would take 50% of his purse but to make it up he would provide him with weight drained damaged goods past their prime..just look at duckqiao..the guy who used to get smashed by the mexicans then run up in weight to face damaged goods at catch weight

ROFL! You're doing great man! Can you please say more?

You guys are forgetting that there's an undercard fight...Sergio is not making 1.65mill

[mathed]

All the big names are afraid of Sergio so he has to fight lesser known guys. If Arum could get Pac to step up without the crazy weight demands, then Sergio would be the biggest star in boxing.

Too bad his opponents don't see it that way though

Maybe Mayweather Promotions would do better instead. They'd inject Martinez with xylocaine and claim you have the heart to go through blood, sweat, and tears in a fair fight. Next is half-assed olympic style drug testing that ends early for some reason, nevermind the fact it's not a year round thing, and he gets to convince his brown-nosed mob that he's clean. Perfect.

Arums means, "let's co-promote Martinez and then we have a brand."

then he'd prob have no problem feeding him junior..if mike lee can get a subway commercial..why cant sergio get a commercial..even something as small as that will peak peoples interest..i remember people askin me during week 1 of football like who is mike lee, is he any good? things as little as that can help sergio's popularity. now people going with me to the cotto margs fight heard that mike lee is on the card and they wanna see him actually fight..so who knows those 15 seconds can go a long way

[Nyboxfan1]

Mike Lee got the subway commercial through his father, because he fed him subway after the weigh ins and a subway marketing guy heard the story. No joke.

Top Rank had nothing to do with him getting that commercial

[Khalid X]

Bob is right.

IMO GBP would be a perfect fit for Sergio as I could see Oscar doing a great job promoting Martinez.

[rudyyr]

Yup..GBP or TopRank..dibella is geting phased out by HBO..GBP is a better fit, arum is getting kinda old..
