    Why hasn't Bob Arum retired yet?

    What are you theories on why Bob Arum hasn't retired from promoting yet?

    He's extremely rich with a net worth of over 200 million. He doesn't have to work ever again if he wanted to. He is 80 years old.

    Do you think he will retire before he passes?

    Do you think he's waiting for a certain time, like waiting till Pacquiao retires?

    Do you think Top Rank will be ran better with Todd Duboef taking over?

    Do you think Todd Duboef would work with Golden Boy to make fights the fans want to see?

    What are you thoughts?

    I think for all the **** he gets, he really loves the sport, he just loves himself more. As you say, he has so much money but he's been around for so long it's hard to let go.

            Yes, he's an old man. It's called retirement. He'll still be making money...

            Are you never going to retire?

              He strikes me as one of those people who would probably not know what to do without working and would start to deteriorate much faster if he quit. i'm sure playing politics, long term planning,etc. keeps his mind working. plus I think (in his own way) he really does love boxing and the fighters. i

                It's called children? He has...3 of them? They will have kids? Why would you stop making money? It's not like Bob is a factory worker with carpel-tunnel. He makes millions and millions why would he ever stop that?

                  Again, it's called retirement. He won't plateau because he'll still be making money. His "kids" are most likely adults with careers.
