    Arum has a point, but as someone supposedly promoting the sport he should be trying to get the other '90%' interested in the undercard. Dude's an arsehole.

      i think garcia vs matthyse on the undercard was a great move by showtime, it made the 15 sept farse look like a great card. for those dumb enough not to stream it

        Arum is right...90% of people don't care about TOP RANK's undercards because they blow!

          Another reason why Top Rank will always be second to Golden Boy. It's chairmen is a total imbecile.

            Arum is crazy, you think someone will actually pay $80.00 to see one fight. The undercard is the whole reason for PPV.

              I wish this was true, bud. I wish it were true. But there's a whole host of casuals who buy fights for one fight. I've watched countless fights at people's homes who bought fights and didn't know a single guy on the undercard. **** some douche bags will buy a fight just because think it's hipster to be able to say, "Yo yo yo got the fight bruh". Then you watch it with them and the only fighters they've ever heard of is Mike Tyson, Floyd Mayweather, and Manny Pacquiao.

                the co main event is very important. Garcia matheysee is a great example. A lot of people wanted that fight more then the floyd main event

                  Didn't read. Arum's title was too ****** to take seriously. Cause lemme tall ya fool, I sure cared about Danny/Lucas more than the (main event).

                  And at least golden boy put on some very good supporting undercards all around. It's quite pompous of you to believe fans enjoy watching superstar fighters cherry pick.

                      I want to know where Arum gets his numbers from. Maybe his ass?
