Comments Thread For: Arum Rejects Claims That Pacquiao-Horn Officials Were Dishonest

1. Judges are paid by promotors. Take from that what you will. 2. Imagine if pac had lost a debatable decision like this to Oscar or Floyd back when pac was at his peak of superstardum... Arum would've lost his mind! He was in on this and he felt the time was right to screw pac over to either make Jeff horn a name, or con pac into resigning with top rank since his contract is up.

The judging was perfect and the vast majority of boxing "fans" can't tell the difference between a check hook and a pull counter.

Squeezing blood out of a rock aren't Bob? This had fix written all over it the moment they announced the fight and they announced Horn was now co-promoted by Top Rank. Arum is going to milk Horn, Pacquaio, and Duco hard. If he's splitting that 27.5% on Horn and getting 27.5% from Pacquaio it made business sense to do this. Top that off with an ESPN deal that put them in good rating standings for the first time in years...and yeah all of the motivating factors were right there before us.

Both homie, both.

This man turned his back on the boxer that made him millions. What blatant disregard to your cash cow of over a decade. I understand boxing is a business but there's no loyalty from Arum to Pacquiao and it just comes to show how he really felt about Pacquiao all these years.

That's what the mastermind will say!

What's crazy Is Pacquiao Is saying that his contract Is up and Arum Is saying he Is under contract until sometime In 2018.

You would never kno pac was arums biggest cash cow for the past few years if you read this interview

He is putting a pro-horn spin to everything

He equates holding to elbows? Or jus completely dodged the question about elbows and defends the ref who was blantantly biased or grossly incompetent.

Seems like arum been giving a lot of interviews lately because the source cited is always different and every time arum gives an interview he is going against what pac is saying.

damn pacquiao out here calling for investigations and his own promoter saying theres no need for it he lost fair n square. i remember the days when bob would defend manny no matter what. he is done with him. he is a co promoter of horn and he sees value with him since hes gonna bring a whole country to support him. if manny resigns with top rank hes the ultimate beta and weakling. by now manny should be his own boss writing his own checks. with this statement arum just pimp slapped manny and told him stop crying.

Nefarious Numb Nutz Uncle Bob... trying to out-do Don King as most corrupt lying b.s. artist promoter ever. Lies thru he false teeth like a true scum. Should be banned from the sport for the rest of the few days he has left on this planet.
