    Why would anyone believe anything Oscar says?

    He lies enough with his fake predictions before every fight and not to mention lying for years about wearing fishnets etc.

    Oscar just wants to make money, if he's criticising Arum it's because he's stopping him making more money.

      The UFC is a monopoly. Ya its good for the fans ask the fighters how great it is. BJ Penn said he fought for his championship belt for $41,000 and after he became champion dana declined to up his pay at all. lol at the nba players declining having 51% of the revenue. I saw on sherdog that ufc fighters get about 11% of the revenue that is a ***ing joke. mma fighters should unite and call out dana lol at people thinking don king cheated his fighters look at how dana treats his hoes (fighters).

        By the way the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) has a lengthy case going on now proving the ufc is in fact a monopoly in mma.

Canello is SUPER overprotected, and they refuse to give guys like Molina Lara bigger fights when they earn them. And GBP let's Floyd call the shots too much. He's not supposed to be the boss.

          Something Dana white said that was depressingly true is that "boxing promoters don't invest in the sport, they're in it for themselves". So true when you look at how there's vertually no boxing merchandise, while ufc has dvds, toys, trading cards, you name it.
          I actually really like the way GB has handled Canelo's career so far. The kid is only like 21...He shouldn't be fighting world class level opponents in this point of his career. His fight with Cintron is a good step up in competition for him. If Canelo didn't have that BS WBC belt no one would have a problem with Canelo's career at this point. And I blame the WBC for that, not Golden Boy.

          Also, they can't really do much about Floyd. They just Co-Promote him. Floyd is his own boss.

            dana white makes the fights people want without all the bull**** while over here we dont and that is the number one argument most fans of ufc say all the time.... i always get that question, "how the hell havent those two guys fought??"....

            oscar was just on espn (nacion_espn) talking about wanting to give people the fights they want but they cant and called out arum on it... arum on the other hand doesnt give a damn what people want
            that is the truth. it's bob arum messing up lots of great fights.. not just floyd vs pacroid.. he is just too damn greedy..
