      Absolutely, no chance he survives if he did that today… and especially now with the RKelly documentary that they released?

          He became hated for the things he says and does as a greedy boxing promoter.Things like buying the respected ring magazine and using that magazine to give boxers he promotes higher rankings and help promote them. He is also supected of buying judges for important fights his best boxers are fighting in.

            NO Promoter is liked in Boxing...NONE OF THEM!

            As for Oscar situation, not really sure but recently he been running his mouth a lot about other business like talking about Dana White and Mayweather when he should focus on his own business and issues

              He verbally trashed Chavez when Chavez retired in the corner against him and then quit in the corner himself against Pacquiao.

                We should all show more respect when we are talking about the next president of the United States.

                    What a terrible source. Even Arum shïts all over the accusation and we know they're ocmpetitors.

                      So, what went wrong?

                      When he became a promoter. It's virtually impossible to be a promoter and universally liked.

                      The small time promoters are not hated, because they are unknown.

                      Arum/DLH/Haymon/Dana White/King/Hearn ...no one powerful promoter gets a pass.
