Does Arum sabotage his fighters who are thinking of leaving him?

Yeah
This is a business, it's not friendship
If Arum thinks you still have value he's not going to go out of his way to make you earn for someone else. Look how long he dragged out Mikey Garcia. You want to leave he isn't going to make it easy. You want to leave why wouldn't he make that fighter catch a L or 2 to diminish their value
Is it ethical or fair , who's to say but there is no emotion in business so it is what it is -
I have no daubt about it,this old *** can do things like this,if manny dont KO Vargas he can **** him over cuse he didnt wanted to fight Crawford or Loma.Comment

Probably all depends on who the fighter is and what value they have (and how much TR has invested in them). Rios is a free agent now and Top Rank let him go even earlier than they had to. Doesn't seem to be much bitterness from either party there.
With guys like Mikey and Chavez, you can't just let fighters out of a contract early because they want to or because they are being interfered with. That sets a very bad business precedent.
I doubt Arum had judges paid off to go against Walters, a fighter who hasn't produced any revenue for TR and likely never will. That is just Trump conspiracy type stuff.
Arum is still a d**k though.Comment

I also said:
What's even more disgusting is Arum continuing to promote Margarito while making the most money he's ever made off Margarito AFTER he got caught with the bricks. Margarito made the most money in his career AFTER he got caught which is unprecedented in boxing, U get caught with bricks, your career is normally over and you don't get a license anywhere. Margarito fought Mosley the same night, Pacquiao AND Cotto in the rematch, made more than 10 Million. Was probably a part of the deal, you never know.
There's a reason why he was DYING to make Mayweather fight Margarito when Floyd was trying to leave him. Imagine if it was Mayweather instead of Cotto that night.Comment

I doubt we'll ever find out exactly what is behind the scenes with PBC cuz about as in depth as Haymon gets with technology is a Tracfone.
I do think if PBC is successful in their "bigger than the UFC" goal we'll see a ESPN 30 for 30 & all sorts of books & a doc or two about eveything that went down in 2030, 2040 or some out there date like that.Comment
