    Bob Arum: Lomachenko...best fighter I've seen since early Ali"

    https://*******.com/aliarum

    Originally posted by Boxing Insider
    After watching multiple division titlist Vasiliy Lomachenko over the years however, Arum is ready to place his name in Ali’s category.

    “When Ali was in his prime, before the three and a half years when he couldn’t fight, he was a tremendous technical fighter,” said Arum on Loma Official TV on YouTube. “He had a control over distance and how to move in the ring that no one had ever seen before. Lomachenko has those sort of skills and more. Lomachenko technically is the best fighter I’ve seen since that early Ali.”

      He literally says this about all his top fighters. He said it about Floyd before he left Top Rank ��

            Promoter is doing his job by promoting. He gives zero ****s what hardcore fans think about his comments because if you are true boxing fan you will watch this fight no matter what Bob says. If you are a casual or just getting into boxing such praise might get small numbers boost.

                  It is hard to tell when Arum really believes what he is saying since he is always a promoter. Loma looks like an amazing boxer to me. He does things in the ring i have never seen anyone do as well as he does.

                    Bob believes it as long as it makes him money. He's a promoter and promoters, by nature, are opportunists.
