    The Frankster, IMO.

    I can't be bothered to explain why.

        I picked Arum because he is a survivor and has been apart of alot of great fights past and present. Just in the last two years Arum has put together fights that have been candidates for fight of the year. I think he is the preeminent promotor at this time.

        No De La Hoya??? He is the biggest dissapointment so far as a promoter. Greedy?

          promoters are the bane of boxing. they are the ones who made it a business instead of a sport.

            Come on ...if you are starting as a boxer who would you pick to promote your fight and make you famous? The obvious answer would either be Don King or Arum.

                promoters should all be banned. still king is the all time best promoter of course cause damn look at all hes done. well i really think and hope and pray that all promoters in boxing at least are going to be a thing of the past in the next ten or so years.

                    I think Arum does a good job, although he still has some issues, although all in all, a decent promoter.

                    Shaw is good, but Arum's got the better fights in his resume in my opinion.

                    DLH is a disgrace. He gave his word that he will change the corrupt system only to be a bigger part of it.

                    And Don King should be named in the hall of shame for the things he has done to boxing. he ruined the HW division.
