Comments Thread For: Espinoza Will Believe Arum About Wilder-Fury When He Acts On It

[SchoolTheseCats]

Bob doesn't have a working or business relationship with Al Haymon. Is one of the major reasons why those fights haven't been made. Another reason is that Bob likes to keep everything in house. He won't co-promote unless there's a purse bid involved. So unless Wilder signs with ESPN, I don't see that fight happening anytime soon.

Bob needs to do a trade off, give al Crawford/Spence for fury/wilder2 instead of trying sign people that’s not going sign long term deals with him

[Bronx2245]

Bob knows who to call, if he wants Lomachenko vs. Davis, or Spence Jr. vs. Crawford! He talks about talent trades in the media, but his idea of making fights is Linares vs. Lomachenko, Crawford vs. Diaz, Crawford vs. Molina, Ramirez vs. Prograis, all in which he has the fighters come to fight on the network he's involved with! Smart business, but it's killing TC's run @ 147!

Espinoza and Sulaiman burned up whatever credibility they once had.

It would have been much easier for Arum to just pick up the phone and call Haymon to make a deal rather than name-calling him on social media and in the press.

“So really, it’s not difficult, and I do believe [Arum] wants it. If he says it, until he proves differently, I’ll believe it. But what would be much more convincing than him saying it is to actually act on it and take steps to make any of those fights happen – whether it’s the Fury rematch or any of other big fights.” - Espinoza

How true it is!

Not ppv means more people get to see Wilder put Breazeale to sleep and get excited for a Joshua Wilder fight that's not gonna happen soon.

[Detroit29]

I believe anything Arum says. He NEVER lies. Ever. Especially when his montra is "Yesterday i was lying. Today Im telling the truth"...lol. He told Tim Bradley he was guaranteed 10 million in the rematch against Manny. We saw how that turned out.

But seriously, it sounds like they are working on doing a split site between Showtime and ESPN. But it won't happen right away.

[BennyBlanco]

Espinosa thinks he is a promoter, nobody in their right minds even Wilder knows public dont pay for garbarge recycled think Bermaine Stevenine rematch.

What does that have to do with Arum making cross-network fights????

[BennyBlanco]

Appreciate its not on ppv - gtfoh!! If Showtime/Pbc thought it would have been profitable it would b ppv...they know it would have bombed!! Wilder only sniffs ppv against Aj or Fury.

Who cares why it's not on PPV? Just be happy it isn't.

Team Wilder care, thats why they are trying to spin the false narrative to the public that the Breazeale fight is on free tv out of the kindness of their hearts..

people are just calling out that BS for what it is.
