Comments Thread For: Arum On ESPN, Top Rank Return: If We F--k It Up, It's Gonna Be Bad For Boxing

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Bob Arum advised anyone dissatisfied with the June fights ESPN and Top Rank have announced thus far to remain patient. The 88-year-old promoter's company encountered unprecedented problems while putting together cards that ESPN will air throughout June, mostly on Tuesday nights and Thursday nights. Extensive COVID-19 testing for everyone involved in those shows is an enormous expense promoters and networks never have encountered, which impacted Top Rank's budget for making fights for these upcoming cards.

Can we safely say Wilder v Fury is August/September provided Wilder is injury free?

On another note.. Bob mentions on the pretty much meaningless fights about scoring.. what plans are they? Giving the janitor a pen and paper

Screwing over Crawford's career has been bad for boxing.

He’s right. Her top rank has the most experience and expertise in putting in fights. He de Golden Boy, Haymon and Eddie Hearns are all waiting for Top Ranks to make the protocol that they will copy

UFC already made the protocol.

Jus follow Dana and they'll be fine.

UFC has put on 4 events in the past 3 weeks. The protocol caught the one fighter w/ covid-19 and removed him from the card. The system works.

It's no secret Dana has received calls from Eddie Hearn as well as other promoters and organizations to adopt the UFC protocol.

I really hope we see all the big fights sooner than later. It’s beyond old seeing these mismatch fights all the time.
