Golovkin KO-ing C+ and B- level fighters 20 times in a row and doing it every 3/4 months is what started the hype - not because he is a white guy.
If it was just color they could have chosen Algieri or Joe Smith and had them knock out D level fighters cos they sure as hell werent capable of stringing 20 consecutive kos together against B level fighters.
Andre Ward could have crossed over but skillful as he is, he has a boring style (for casuals) and didn't even fight once a year during part of his prime. Inactivity kills your ability to become a super-starLast edited by SteveM; 10-25-2018, 04:13 PM.

And Mikey hit it right on. Why would haymon want to do business with Arum when Bobby is talking all this crap so the cancer is really the Bob Father
on a bus..... in a box..... whatever
the only guy who dealt with Arum correctly, was Schaeffer
the second he realized that Arum was a compulsive liar/manipulator, he refused to deal with him, period..... Oscar coming out of rehab determined to patch things up with Arum..... was dumb as fcuk, and cost Oscar dearly
the first of business is, don't do business with someone you cannot trust

Money Talks bulshyt walks, there is big money with Crawford vs any of the PBC stable. As a boxing fan I want the best versus the best, only reason why I yell and scream to send the contract is because Bob is saying that he will make it ASAP.. So call his bluff

Arum is smart. Crawford and Lomachenko are demanding those fights, but Arum doesn't want to make them yet. So he's pretending like he's trying to reach out to Haymon in order to make it seem like it wasn't his fault why the fights aren't happening. He's also exploiting the fact that Haymon never does interviews so that he can't come out and contradict Arum.
