    Geez I wonder what those two have in common that Arum doesn't?
    I didn't complain about Arum using the WBA as his puppet, just as King was using the WBC as his puppet. There were two dominant promoters, two belts, and they each had one.

    The problem is that when Arum loses control of an existing belt, he just finds a new one. You guys complain about there being so many belts, but Arum is the main culprit. He's the #1 reason we have four belts instead of two.

    And if he'd gotten his way with the IBA, we'd have five.

    Don't even get me started on his plan to prop up the UBC.

      He ghosted Eddie Hearn without even making a counter offer for the Andrade fight. That's not a **** deal, that's a duck.

      Are you on meth? The one getting 20x higher gates, getting 10x bigger paydays is irrelevant, not the bum getting lower ratings than women's boxing?

        See the problem is your wording.
        You say “loses control of an existing belt”
        You mean through politics?
        Like not in the ring?

        Because the wbo has value because arum gave it that.

        Theres very few of them, but in most head-to-head cases, Arum has undisputedly come out on top against Haymon.

        The number of belts doesn't matter, its the fighter that counts.

        And if Arum creates 4 more belts, has the best fighter in the division having one of them, and pbc takes the other 7, then the paperweights are the ones pbc has, the names the belts have on them don't matter.

            Charlo is being lined up for opponents rated much higher than Andrade. Nobody cares about Andrade, which is why Hearn is so desperate. Charlo is the A-side, not Andrade. A-sides don't cross the street to fight B-sides. No matter how many meaningless offers Hearn makes. You guys just have no understanding of how this business works.

            Canelo is unlikely to fight at middleweight again any time soon, if ever. He's in a different division now. Charlo is becoming the man at middleweight. Canelo didn't want to fight him and left the division. Yes, Canelo is irrelevant. He's elsewhere now.

              You need to be watching more of female boxing.
              You are getting slow by the day.
              Canelo is irrelevant?
