Bob Arum More Interested in Winning the Media Battle

[KTFOKING]

Well he is winning it, even though he is worse than Haymon in terms of blocking fights, the fact that he has been vocal about putting Crawford in there with the other champs has won me over, this has made me look more at Haymon than Arum.

LOL, the thing here is he is already talking about Haymon blocking the fight WITHOUT YET HAVING CALLED Haymon. Like how ****** does he think people are? He has to do this to show Crawford, "see, it's not me, it's Haymon the reason you are not getting these big fights!" This was totally peak Arum post fight. All week he uses Spence as one way to sell the fight saying he will call Haymon right after the fight to make that fight....And right when the fight happens, and before he has made the phone call, he says Haymon is preventing the fight? Huh? So if he is preventing the fight, why would he all week say he will call him to make the fight? Something isn't adding up here.

Arum is a guy that will try to throw as much BS as he can in hoping it is enough to win the media battle. Praises Haymon for Wilder not taking DAZN's deal since it benefits him and his fighter Fury....Kills Hearn for tying up to DAZN and preventing the big fights (not true), and now kills Haymon for preventing the Spence/Crawford fight without making any effort to make the fight yet?

[KTFOKING]

Of course Haymon won't consider the fight. He wants to keep everything in house. If you can't see that then you are dumb as hell.

No, I see you went around question I just asked. Tell me how he is preventing the fight when Arum HAS YET TO MAKE A PHONE CALL? If anyone is dumb, it is you for buying Arum's BS.

We don't even know how well or how poorly the PPV buys did in the first place. We don't even know how the phone call or talks will go....Because no call has been made yet.

Arum sounds like he wants the fight more than Crawford.

lol if Arum actually made that call Haymon would laugh at him because he already has Spence's next few fights planned and they are all in house matchups. The fight is not happening. Every promoter will try to exhaust the in house options first. They all do it.

Crawford wants the fight I believe that, but he knows Bob is sounding crazy out there spewing nothing but BS. Crawford is a serious dude, he's not with all the extra stuff.

Arum sounded really bad in there. Very cringy. Sounded like he was an old man on his last days that got lost and somehow wound up in a boxing ring with a mic in his face.

Maybe so, but once again, you haven't answered my question. How can one prevent the fight....When you have not yet made a single phone call about the fight? Don't try to overthink this. This is what he does. Before there was Hearn, it was Arum who would try to be the loudest in the media to make sure he was head...Regardless of there was any truth to what he was saying or not.

I don't think anyone is expecting the fight to happen next. We already know Spence is fighting Porter next and Pacquiao will likely be fighting Thurman. But doesn't mean the fight can't legitimately be on track to happening early 2020.

Arum though already is doing what he does best. Will be interesting to see how many of the media members take his side on this matter. From what I've seen, Rafael has already called him out on his BS and others are following.

lol i'm done with you man. You are trying to argue with me on something that isn't relevant at all.

I know Crawford wants the fight. I think Arum wasn't sounding crazy, he was sounding like a promoter that was done with the other side trying to freeze his guy out. PBC is scared to mention the real boogeyman's name. I'm glad Ward called Elerbe out too, subliminally at least, for his recent interview about not doing business with Crawford. Saying, 'I don't like how certain en****** (censoring en-ti-ties? wtf bscene?) are bragging about not being willing to make a fight happen. Why shouldn't it happen next?' (something to that extent. It was at the end of the broadcast, I can't link a vid)

And I mean it's not like he's the one didn't stop the Wilder/Fury fight from happening.....Oh wait, he said it needs to be held off for another year so it can be a 2 million PPV buys type of fight.

Arum is the Donald Trump of boxing

He literally stepped in & killed the Fury/Wilder rematch and told us fans we don't deserve it yet.
