Is Arum gunna do the unthinkable?

[Pigeons]

Most likely a quid pro quo. Hearn gives Bob Lomachenko-Campbell unification on ESPN and Bob gives Hearn Hooker-Ramirez unification on DAZN.

[Eff Pandas]

Well this sorta sh^t makes sense more than mfers do this, Bob specifically, so hopefully Bob is doing some new sh^t.

Part of me thinks Bob Jr is just taking the reins more cuz TR has done more un-TR-like sh^t in recent times. And I've heard Bob even say Bob Jr was the man who made the ESPN thing happen. Maybe Bob realizes the deal he made with the devil way back in the day is almost over & its time to let Bob Jr run the company more that he'll be running 100% without Bob Sr soon enough anyway.

I've heard Bob Jr on a couple podcasts talking about part of what TR is doing these days is keeping Bob Sr from f#cking talking cuz he'll just say crazy sh^t so much. I'm sure part of that was trying to get some humor in the interview, but he sounded like it was kinda true & a problem too at the same time.

He should have let Ramirez fight Prograis when Prograis was the mandatory.

I guess he feels Hooker is not as much of a threat.

[Mister Wolf]

Hooker by possible stoppage.

That what be one good ass fight, if Uncle Bob is serious. I hope it's true and he's not stalling. This is the kind of fight that fans are searching for.

It is a good fight, but before we give Arum too much credit lets see if he is willing to put Ramirez in with the winner of Prograis v Tayler fight.The winner of that fight (pro v tay)will be #1.Bob I think just smells a easy title, at least the weakest of the 4.Hooker is world class don't get me wrong, but he is the weak link.

[Phenom]

I mean it's not exactly a fight that ESPN would want probably more expensive than its worth

Seeing your saying under your name what did you think of the ESPN crew bashing Dogboe corner from the 7th on?This "doctor announcing" is getting to be EVERY fight where someone takes some shots.They got the corner's and refs so scared to get killed on TV their influencing the fights.Gatti or Saad would be nobodies today.

I hate it.

We will never get another Corrales vs Castillo classic again in the current environment.

[Bobby Deez]

Dan Rafael is saying the talks are positive, on both sides, for a Hooker/Ramirez unification on DAZN https://mobile.twitter.com/danrafael...2839237634?p=v

Still sceptical that this comes off though

Me too, bruh.

This isn't unthinkable...it was talked about when news came out about Lomachenko-Campbell being ordered.

From last week:

Steve Kim@StevESPNKim
Spoke with Bob Arum, and they are set to take Lomachenko to jolly ol' England in August-September to face Luke Campbell, as part of the WBC ruling for their 135 pound title #boxing

Steve Kim@StevESPNKim
Arum says that he's also hopeful of making a deal with Eddie 'fast car' Hearn on a Jose Ramirez-Mo Hooker fight, ''We'll make a deal, I'm sure," he stated #boxing

The unthinkable bit is it being on DAZN, Arum dont do that. He likes to talk about being willing to work with any promoter, but its always on his terms, on his preferred network. This is properly working with another promoter, where youre willing to send a guy to his rival network. Can only be good for the future.
