        I prefer Don King, but Arum is dope as well.

          Yes he is the best promoter in my opinion. He is well past 80 years old and still doing a great job. He is far from perfect but who is? I don't think he has made the Pac-May fight happen. Nobody can do that. I hope I am wrong but as long as Mayweather wants to treat Pacquiao like a piece of **** and keep damn near all the money for himself this fight will NEVER HAPPEN.

              The greatest promoter is Floyd Money Mayweather. He is his own boss.
              So who is Bob Arum's boss? Always anxious to acquire inside boxing knowledge.

                Their is no denying that Arum has been the top promoter for many years.
                The guy is a smart guy, knows how to build stars, and more importantly has the right people working for him.

                The only guy I would say came close to him in the last 10 years was Schaffer, but he got too greedy and ended up ****ing up.

                  i dont know about all that not sure how someone who was just as much to blame as anyone for the fight of our times not counting ali stuff not being made. the only thing i agree with the troll thread maker is that arum purposely avoided the mayweather fight knowing he could piggy back off mayweather and get the boxing world on his side make bunch money then make the fight anyway towards the end. if thats good for boxing then maybe boxing is not the sport i thought it was. But the whole b- fighter thing get a life bro even if u think mayweather is better which i do manny is still a great fighter and an A fighter for our era no question

                      al haymon is not a promoter as much as his detractors talk about him like he is
