MGM Hints Ties With Arum May Be Over

[Fetta]

Come on be realistic MGM didn't give a *** about removing the advertising. Very unprofessional of them. It's good that mgm got embarrassed in public and MGM has done this before not just for boxing events. They deserve the negative press that bob gave them. I bet MGM will think twice about promoting different events that are different then the one for that night from now on.

I keep saying it and it keeps going in one and out the other but someone from TR should have been there to make sure they were fulfilling contract obligations not relying on others to do it for them.

Yes bad on MGM cause someone dropped the ball but TR only has themselves to blame. Never assume others will care about your companies event. No matter how big that other company is too

If Bob doesn't want to work with MGM, he'll probably move to the Forum

MGM will be loyal to Floyd..he is the MGM and that is why when you drive by there you see his image..he his fights 2 times a year make them well over 100 million.and Floyd is loyal to them

Top Rank will be around longer than Mayweather.

Which is where Marquez-Alvarado is, and where JCC Jr.-Golovkin may end up.

Plus, Top Rank has a number of young fighters in their stable...they could probably build Oscar Valdez nicely at the Forum.

These are all grown multi million dollar business men who should know how to conduct themselves without baby sitters to make sure both parties are doing the right thing. The mgm messed up big time and if anything THEY are the ones who burned bridges not only with top rank but with Tecate beer who gives them Millions for promotion only for the mgm to splash Corona ads during the week of pac/Bradley.

Also California has the highest number of Filipinos in the States (1.4).... and Bob seems like the MGM offended all the Filipinos for some reason.

Only reason he wouldn't want to is because of taxes and all

arum is at that age where he doesnt give a F about anything anymore.

i just hope todd dubeoff runs top rank better than what arum has done the last 3-5 years with all this cold war bullcrap.

I know who they are and i agree they should have but this is on TR cause this is their event.

TR went in probably thinking they fine cause MGM has handled this many times and all has gone well 99/100 times but this just happened to be that 1.

Yeah it's unprofessional what MGM did but so is antagonizing your business partner to the point of them not making business with you no more. Arum has a tendency to let his temper get the better of him.

Who cares lets just hope MGM learned their lesson.
Bob is bob he was in the right for a change. Money talks and MGM will do business with bob if bob allows it. MGM isn't calling any shots here it's uncle bob play ground. Again money talks and MGM will put out like a hooker when they see the money.

We'll see what happens with Macau.

It didn't work out period! He ran back with his tail between his legs..
