Why is Arum made out to be such a bad person?

[Sosay]

He's a scumbag, simple as that. Him and Don King have been crooks for decades. Yeah, most promoters are but he might be the worst. How much money did Bradley and Marquez make Bob? If they didn't sign with top rank, who would Pac had fought? He would of force feed us Vargas and Mike Jones. So don't act like he throw Bradley a bone, it was beneficial for both.

[Robbie Barrett]

If Bradley didn't go the Top Rank route he would have had just as much success financially because he would have had a Mayweather fight by now.

Marinate

Stadium

Yesterday I was lying

Pacquiao tax problems(No proof it's Arum's fault but it's a bad look)

Horrendous Under cards

Butterbean/Mia St John - See Above




Just off the top of my head why people would despise Arum.

[damit305]

Arum is ok. He decided to hold off on what was possibly a foty type fight in Gamboa v Juanma because of "marination".

Juanma got his ass kicked by salido twice

and Gamboa went off into the obscure corners of hope in Fiddy Cent.

Any rookie promoter could have done a better job than ol Arum in this case.

He's also known for screwing his fighters too. Rigo? (Though that's partially his fault), Floyd and Oscar to name some big ones. Oscar left and took a chance and runs the only competitor to TR. Floyd left took a chance and became the highest paid athlete in the world. He makes a ton off them and tries to devalue what they make themselves.

if you think arum is a good person then youre an idiot. Hes a known racist, liar, and just a down right piece of ****

Arum has a tough agenda to follow! What is his next move?? lol.

It's obvious he is not trying to put forth any Cuban mega stars lol.

He is too old for that type of drastic change.

Just as bad as Schafer and others. At least he didn't beat someone to death like Don King did. Actually, King killed two men. His past shows he is far worse than Arum.

To be honest I feel GB has done a better job with Lara than TR has with Rigo and Gamboa combined.

You're saying that he can't be all those things(Racist, con-artist, stingy, etc...) because it falls in the line of duty. I'm here to tell you that you would probably have a different opinion of him if you ever had to personally deal with him. I'll trust the pretty much universal opinion that he is a piece of crap shared by just about everyone that has ever come into contact with him.
