Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao-Horn on ESPN is "a Gift" for Boxing Fans

[j.razor]

No. Reports were that HBO put in an offer and it was rejected. Whether or not you believe that to be factual, or if Arum just leaked that to make him look better, that's up to you. But this is what was reported in articles. That HBO made an offer to broadcast it and Arum went the ESPN route. Taking Lomachenko & Crawford with him.

Yes cuz bob wanted ppv-hbo hbo said no ppv, arum got mad & said f**k I have to do what Al is doing then.....

bob you are full of mierda!
nobody cares for this garbage fight!

[SUBZER0ED]

I'm glad that this fight is on ESPN, but a gift? Come on Bob, you know if you could have made this a PPV event, you would have. A past it 38 year old Pacquiao vs an unknown Jeff Horn garnered little interest, even on regular cable tv.

Oh, and this is false. When it comes to Lomachenko and Crawford, HBO has a deal with TOP RANK, not with Lomachenko and Crawford individually. Lol you really thought that HBO could hold Bob's own fighters hostage?

How high are you right now?

..what??? dude, are serious?? you're right, they have a deal with TR... for HIS FIGHTHERS!! If it was that easy, why not take Pac off HBO when negotiating the Floyd were stagnant because of the networks working together? why not just bring Pac to SHOWTIME?? because he wasn't allowed to take pac off!! These are bidding documents. You can't just walk away from a contract, you have to fulfill it first....clown.

[lets rumble]

Yes bob it's a gift .....
A gift from you to manny . Period .....

Again you f**king ******, READ the f**king articles. Can you read, you f**king ******? I mean I assume you can read because you are typing, unless somebody is typing for your delusional dumb ass. HBO DOES NOT own the rights to Lomachenko or Crawford unless Arum himself signed a multi-fight deal with them. Which he hasn't, or else he WOULD NOT be openly talking about having Lomachenko fight Salido and Crawford fighting Indongo on ESPN. You CAN'T be this f**king ******. You just can't.

bob only eats kosher! How dare you....

If Bob can make a buck off of it, he would be the first in line to kosher bless my stinky brown ones himself..If he could make 10$ he'd probably claim it was the religious duty of everybody to have a bite, along with his snakeY self.

Manny Pacquaio is destined to be a tragic figure. He'll end up penniless and forgotten.

Lmfao that guy has more legacy in his toe nail lint than you and the next 7 generations of your family will amass combined. He'll have thousands at his funeral -- you'll be lucky if you break 30. And that includes your coworkers who don't like you but will be forced to make token appearances.

Don't hate, congratulate.

No explain it to me. You love PBC but why not this?

This is how it started: http://www.latimes.com/sports/boxing...nap-story.html

hbo knows they hurting since Floyd left them & told bob no more hbo-ppv for your s**t fights so bob got mad & had no choice but to follow the pack (Al & the wolves) & he went to espn since they follow his agenda.....now he says its a gift...lol...If he REALLY wants to give us a gift then do Rigo. vs Loma. on espn, bet that wont ever happen.....
