    Good for Arum, ESPN and most important, the fans. How is it that Arum has a knack for building up fighters into stars? Something Haymon has no clue of. Thurman was expected to become a big star. Yet where is he? The Swift has disappeared too. They're not even talking about their next fights.

        I hate when people blame boxing as a whole, they just enjoyed a good scrap and forget it because of a decision that they didnt agreed with,

        I never seen people do this in UFc when UFC gets decisions that are not popular you dont see millions of people saying UFC is shady or ufc does it again corrupt, but when boxing has a unpopular decision you see idiots saying boxing is dead, UFC will never do this.

        Even Stepen A smith said UFC will never do this they dont rob fighters lmao wow
        Yeah he kept repeating that basically pushing more casual fans to the direction of the UFC. But UFC had their shares of Controversial Decisions

          How is the points bet between you and the English boy gonna play out because Horn didn't KO Pac in 5, so does he still have to pay?
          Siablo are you the English boy too?

            UFC has some fixed fights but nobody bashes the entire UFC, they only do that with boxing.

              Free TV usually brings out the fans especially with what would be anticipated to be a good fight and the money is always there ...TV dollars are always there just look @ ESPN,Disney, owns them...

                  Now, why would you say it? If you even slightly think that, that's another example of your alt assumptions being wrong. So how did that bet between you and him play out?

                    Hectari, I've always accepted your opinion. With that said did you score the fight? If so, how did you see it? Just curious. On topic, glad espn received great #'s!

                      Arum just created another star in Horn. Even if he loses his next fight, he would make good cash out him.
