Comments Thread For: Bob Arum Welcomes Federal Boxing Commission Idea

[DeadLikeMe]

If there is a federal boxing commission he will only need to keep one rolodex of officials to bribe.

This is all part of the consolidation of power by the elite... This is being practiced in almost all areas of society...
One ring to rule them all... This WILL happen... But you have to know that this does not mean corruption and cheating will be eliminated...

What Took So Long!!! Just Like MLB & Drug Testing!!!

There's probably bee hundreds of fights fixed, blatant judging results over the years. One coming toons was Larry Holmes clearly winning the rematch with Michael Spinks. Tommy Hearns only getting a draw with Ray Leonard in their second fight. All three Ali/Ken Norton fights. How do you NOT have this in place already???? Cause crooks like King & Arum had most of why it never came together. Now their top fighter falls victim to the fix in Vegas and now they're on the bandwagon.

Oh please Bob, spare us the bullcrap. It's like when someone pops positive for a banned substance, Victor Conte has to put his two cents into it like he's the damn authority on all things PEDs. No one wants to hear that crap, specially from HIM.

It's ironic that Arum would also nonchalantly joke around about rigging the Ortiz fight to secure the Sept 15 date. There's a mental complex about people joking about something that deep down they know is true, to make it seem and convince others (including themselves) that it is indeed the opposite.

I don't ever wish ill will upon anyone, but Bob is making it harder and harder for me to hold back. I know he just lost his eldest son 2 years ago from a freak accident, but I hope karma catches up to him once and for all.

How do you know this wasn't by design? Maybe we're all giving Arum too much credit to actually be this brilliant to pull it off. If you watched the fight, he embraced Tim Bradley first and foremost when he entered the ring. I personally think Manny is in it as well, this was by design to make Manny look like the victim so people would be more sympathetic to him and forget about the outcome of the 3rd Marquez bout. Also, they want to milk fights between Bradley and Manny, I already see a trilogy in the future.

No. Let's overregulate. BIG TIME.

My advice to Bob Arum is to STFU.

boycott top rank and bob arum and he will suffer by the pocket book. As long as boxing fans buy pay per view fights with top rank promoting arum will make money off it. Hey bob keep ducking floyd. lol

[p4p-champ]

Arum welcomes it, like he welcomes a Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight.

CRAP!
Bob ducking Floyd?????
No! No! No! It's Floyd ducking Pac!

Martinez vs Chavez Jr. could have been avoided if Julio didn't want it...
Bob knows he's sending Chavez to the slaughter house!
So don't tell me Bob is ducking...
