    He could have already made Spence vs Horn, so we will only see big fights if it benefits him. We probably won't see that fight until 2019. Crawford beats Horn, then he will have to face another Top Rank fighter like Manny, While Spence and Thurman handle their mandatory and maybe unify. Once one fighter has all the other belts we will see him face Crawford.

      Here Arum goes again. He’ll never feed Bud to Spence be Ouse he’s trying to build bud into his next cash cow. He’s saying all this to blow up Bud’s name in the welter arena.
      Not gonna happen.

        Thurman -Spence is bigger? Maybe at the moment but once Crawford settles into 147, spence-Crawford will be much bigger.

        Thurman’s days as a champ is numbered.

          Bob can get it done if he has to. Look at Loma. Every fight gets made because Loma demands it.
          No, Arum's 50 years of history as a promoter has proven that beyond any doubt the big fights GET DONE! He is the longest running promoter in the history of sports. His resume is not arguable and torches any promoter that has ever lived. He, not a boxer, is the one who makes the final decision on ALL fights. That is in his fighter/promoter contract.

            Yup he will be in NO rush to match a big lightweight vs a big welter.Unless Spence signs with top rank.Trust me this fight is loooooooooong way away.

              And during his 50 yrs(and Kings) boxing has become 20% of what it was.And all big fights get made???We don't have the time or space to list all the fights he has kept from happening.One thing I will give him credit for is they are the best right now at grooming young fighters.their matchmakers(my dream job) are the best in boxing.ps I like your quote at bottom

                The greatest problem is promoters saying they will work with each other and not doing that. But the list of his accomplishments beats any promoter. Countless fights have been made and the big fights do get made but no promoter gets ALL the big fights made. Too many egos and politics for that to ever happen.

                  He did FAR more harm then good.Just look where boxing is today compared to where is was when he got in.Not ALL his fault but him and King deserve most off the blame

                    I'm dead serious! The ring IQ of Spence Jr. and Crawford is off the charts! Truth be told, I would pay to see Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux too, but thankfully, I don't have to!

                      Maybe, but don`t you wanna see Thurman -Spence while they are both still undefeated?
