    Comments Thread For: UFC's White Rips Arum: I Guarantee We'd Do a Better Boxing Event

    UFC President Dana White has continued to rain down some verbal jabs in the direction of Top Rank CEO Bob Arum. The two power-players have been trading words for years. White has not taken too kindly to some of the comments being made by Arum when it comes to the upcoming Showtime Pay-Per-View which features the biggest star of the UFC, Conor McGregor, who steps in a boxing ring for the first time when he faces returning five division world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    ''Look how long it took to make Pacquiao-Mayweather happen, right? It took forever. Then I sit down with [Mayweather adviser] Al Haymon, we have four meetings, we got our fight done. These guys aren't even in the same sport. This just goes to show you what an absolute *sshole Bob Arum really is,"
    He has a point.

      Dana White would be a good boxing promoter, just wouldnt be able to bash his fighter like he does in the ufc

          Dana White is supposed to defend this fight. Bob Arum is an a$$ but he is right. This fight is just a circus, a spectacle. Connor has no chances. I will watch it for free and pay the Canelo vs GGG one.

              The so called "fight" is a freak show masquerading as a boxing match and White is the carnival barker. It will garner millions of dollars because freak shows are what people prefer these days.

                LOL right. I mean I don't know how anyone being honest about Arum CAN'T see him as kinda an a$$hole even on his best day. Thats not to say he's not good at his job or whatever, but clearly there is his way of doing things that don't match up with what others are doing & he's one of the guys who hurt the sport of boxing coming together the most.

                Idk about the UFC throwing a better boxing event than Top Rank doe.

                  Dana White runs the UFC like a dictator, he alone calls the shots, BUT he runs it so well no one complains or gives a fuvk. I've never seen a mismatched fight on UFC, the best facing the best ALWAYS and no ****ing delays and letting things "marinate". Dana is a legend when it comes to making fights and giving the fans what they want.

                    Still not wasting my money on this crap. It's funny how mayweather says the public demanded this fight when he owes the IRS and not once do I recall any boxing fan saying they would love to see May/Mac.
