    Sad.

      It is mind boggling that Arum can't sell a Bradley/Ali fight to HBO. A very good fighter that appears on almost every p4p list against a young undefeated fighter with huge potential.

              Now it totally makes sense, not that I'm buying the fight, but I get it now.

              Is the Wlad/Fury fight on HBO?

                This is bull****. Arum just would rather make an in-house fight with Bradley and Rios.

                I can't lie, Arum did good for the sport many many years ago. But recently between his fake stadiums, fake shoulder injuries, robberies, payoffs to the WBO, saltwater taffy healing methods, etc. The guy has just made a mockery of the sport of boxing and is one of the many reasons that it is a niche sport that is desperately trying to regain the casual audience.

                    I think arum telling the truth HBO have been going the slugger route lately insert can here Ali vs Bradley is a better fight but we know Rios blocks with his face lets his hands go

                      Bradley doesn't need to be fighting Rios. He needs to fight a guy like Brook. It's a shame that Bradley, who because of his style and lack of power is always in tough fights, has to keep wasting his career fighting Top Ranks ****ty stable of fighters.

                      Rios has only beaten Alvarado. He hasn't done anything lately. Bradley is above fighting guys like that. It's time for big fights again.
