Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: We Won't Beg Bob Arum To Work With Us

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya said his company is "willing to work with anyone" to make the right fights happen. De La Hoya is a little frustrated that he can't do a co-promotion with Bob Arum, CEO of Top Rank.

In a recent interview on BoxingScene.com, Arum said he was willing to pay Golden Boy a step-aside fee, and have their company logo displayed as a co-promoter, but he doesn't have any interest in doing a straight co-promotion with Golden Boy. De La Hoya is willing to make the right fights happen, but he won't beg to make those fights happen.

nah no need to. golden boy is where its at. bob arum will cash out when the times right. pacs milking is almost done.

Who is putting on the better cards? Alvarez and Broner are the future. Arum is just mad that Oscar left and made the biggest fight OF ALL TIME without him.

[Frank Ducketts]

That is why Arum is the scum of the ****ing earth!

[ElBossHogg™]

Shouldn't have too, we all know Oscar Plan is to wait Arum life out.

Mosley didn't get the Pac fight until he left GBP for Top Rank.
Marquez didn't get the Pac fight until he left GBP for Top Rank.
Bradley didn't get the Pac fight until he left Gary Shaw for Top Rank.

Anybody see a pattern there? Which promoter is the one refusing to work with others?

[CHOWWOKKA]

So far you got
Oscar saying he wants the fight but won't beg Arum for it
And you got
Bob saying he wants the fight but DLH needs to man up

Anyone surprised?
