    Arum threw him under the bus after the Donaire fight. That's not debatable.

    When a promoter does that to his fighter, he's trash as far as I'm concerned.

      So how exactly can he beat Arum's cash cow if Arum prevents the fight from happening?
      What's holding it up now?

          You think Rigo's inability to land big fights in Arums fault? Both have went their separate ways yet Rigo still cant land a decent fight.

            what??? Chavez fights with froch and GGG collapsed because Arum keeps trying to add an extension. Manny v Cotto 2 fell through because Bob kept insisting on a CW.

              Blame the rich ***ish guy, that's so much better than blaming the black guy right? Rigondeaux's career... Are you for real right now? That guy has been on HBO multiple times and the ratings are complete ****, people walked out of the arena last time he was on HBO. How is that Arum's fault?

              Blame Rigondeaux for being:

              A. Boring
              B. Expensive but can't sell a single ticket.
              C. A p*ssy who refuses to move up in weight.
              D. Not speak English
              E. Boring

              Arum got this boring, non-english speaking, tiny fighter on HBO. He did great things for his career and it was just another guy who was unappreciative. Like Arum makes money on any of these guys before they are on HBO and maybe even PPV.

                I don't know. Far as I know Moonves is trying to negotiate Bob getting step aside money. Will that work, I don't know.

                You avoided the other post I made regarding Moonves said. Is it ok for him and ODH to change their stand on working with Bob?

                  It has everything to do with the black guy. You brought race into a discussion where it didn't belong. You even fabricated racial quotes from Mayweather.

                  At least be real about where you're coming from.

                    Those aren't Arum's fault WTF...

                    Chavez refused 18 million over 3 fights, if a fighter is a ****ing moron and passes that up it isn't Arum's fault. Come on man, give me a real reason not some BS you'll just going to pull out of your ass. You're on Arum about an extension and Haymon does the same ****ing thing lmao. Why is it wrong for Arum to ask for it? Floyd has that EXACT situation with Showtime right now and yet... Arum is an ******* for the same thing. Did you do drugs this morning to mess up your thinking?

                    Manny vs Cotto was not Arum's fault either, Manny was only going up so much and Cotto wasn't doing any CW's ever again. If anything it was Cotto's fault because 150 was more than fair, but I don't blame him for saying he'd never fight Manny at a CW again because of how the first time things went down.

                    Manny says ask my promoter you guys say he's a p*ssy and should call someone out. Arum picks the fights, the fighter turns it down and it's Arum's fault protecting his investments or whatever excuse it may be.

                      I'm sorry I offended your sensitive vagina emotions. Next time I'll label it as the poor multimillionaire boxer feels cheated by rich multimillionaire promoter.
