Comments Thread For: UFC's Dana White Launches Vicious Assault on Bob Arum

[ThePunchingBag]

Secretly, deep inside, Dana White's biggest role model is Bob Arum.

You only have to look at the way the UFC is run to understand why.

[Gino Ros]

the viciousness of the attack is directly proportional to the desperation of the attacker

mma is dying

nuff said

No, it's not. Not at ALL.

But I'm absolutely willing to listen to the facts/statistics that support your argument.

[Pocket Dogs!]

I LOATHE Bob Arum but what is Dana complaining about? The UFC on Dec. 8th is on free TV (Fox). Pac/Marquez III was on the same date as the first UFC on Fox and it didn't hurt either sport. Doesn't Golden Boy have something on that date as well?

That's the way I see it.

Such a big boxing fan he sets up a fake press conference to tell people that Juan Manuel Marquez is a nobody.

Damn what a prick, calls himself a boxing fan and trashes Floyd and JMM. It was funny when he had to admit that fight crushed the UFC in terms of ppv buys. That was the last time a UFC ppv went head to head with a boxing ppv.

If someone is willing to call bob arum an old crusty bastered , then im prepared to listen to them.

Nothing new as everyone knows that Bob Arum is ****..... However just like Bob runs Top Rank and makes or breaks fights, White does the same thing with UFC.

The difference is, White excludes everyone outside of the UFC where as Bob makes it appear he doesnt mind working with other companies/promoters...

Both make or break fights, think Mayweather vs Pac or Fedor Emelianenko vs Randy Coutour.

Bob Arum is a cancer to boxing.

[prinzemanspopa]

Yeah White is being hypocritical because a few years ago he said "Boxing is your father’s sport" and now he's saying he watches it and loves it.

He's always said that he "loves boxing".It's just that,in the past,it usually came before the same old tired cliches about how promoters are killing the sport,how the best don't fight the best and so on.Joe Rogan mastered this technique in his famous interview with Lou DiBella,about how much he loved the sport - all the while relentlessly bashing the sh^t out of it and claiming how it was dying and getting "swallowed" by MMA.Many MMA fans adopted this stance,in spite of most of them never having any invested interested in boxing.
