      Let's be real bro. Manny has too many things going on in his life. Congressman, basketball coach/wannabe player(haha), etc.. At this point in time of his life he needs someone to promote for him. Training, then showing up to fight should be his extent of his boxing life.

      On topic:
      Arum's in house fights makes him and his company the most profit. Business 101, anyway you look at it. Arum is making money for himself and his family, seriously why the hate?

        Well he will for the next few fights....he had no promoter worth mentioning and now Arum has options on him

          Algeri has accomplished nothing.

          And i find it funny you brought up Gatti
          You've lost your mind if you think that version of Gatti was even near the caliber of fighter that Algieri is, even though Algieri isn't anything special.

          Ricky Hatton right now could probably beat that version of Gatti.

              What caliber is Algeri man??? what??? this guy is garbage and Arum needs his ass kicked for even letting him near Manny...And Floyd fought Gatti damn near a decade ago in his 1st ppv fight..why are you comparing that to who Manny is fighting now as an international star?

                  Why do you keep bringing up Algeri (sp) we already know it was a meaningless fight. Its done already.

                    That's laughable, but nice try. Lot of good points being made In this thread but it all comes down to bob keeping more of the money, plus fight in guys like algieri is cheaper than fighting guys on the top tier
