Comments Thread For: Hearn: Arum's Comments Were So Disrespectful To Terence Crawford

[Bronx2245]

Bunch of nonsense. Oh so you are an expert on what a fighter's worth is or what he is "owed"? Why did they not sue? Arum paid Garica well, but Garcia wanted PBC money for soft fights. Manny lost his own money due to his own terrible spending habits. It is well known Manny spends way more than he has. No one has ever said Manny is broke because Arum stole all of his money. To be proven he stole there has to be documented evidence. You claiming one of Garcia's fights made less than anticipated is not stealing. Garcia thought he deserved more money and that is not stealing. You provide no facts, just second hand gossip from boxing forums. I am sure if Manny thought Arum stole from him he would of sued him, but he never has. Many fighters have sued their promoters for theft like Chavez and Norris did with King and there never has been one lawsuit against Arum for such behavior.

Your claims are nothing but gossip. Give me evidence such as court cases. Your **** is not evidence it is nothing but a one-sided opinion because you don't like Arum. But if that is the best you can come up with then it ain't much is it.

Pacquiao Threatens to Sue Top Rank Over Matthysse Fight, More

The longtime promotional partnership between Manny Pacquiao and Bob Arum’s Top Rank Inc. took another negative turn Monday.

Pacquaio announced through his Instagram account that he intends to initiate legal action against Top Rank. According to Pacquiao’s posts, he will sue Top Rank for failing to pay him his portion of the revenue from American streaming rights to his knockout victory over Lucas Matthysse nearly two months ago. Pacquiao also charged in his Instagram post that he’ll sue Top Rank and “all other parties” for trying to restrict television and streaming rights to his future fights...

Here is Pacquiao’s entire post to an Instagram account that has 4.3 million followers:

Congratulations and good luck to TRBoxing and ESPN on your 7-year partnership agreement. I know both of you have been very busy finalizing the deal. However, I have not received the US rights payment for my July 15 fight against Lucas Matthysse that was broadcast on ESPN plus. Therefore, I am initiating legal proceedings against Top Rank and all other parties based on the non-payment and attempt to restrict my future rights. Thank you.

Then you aren't looking very hard lmfao

So there's fight trash talk, but show me where he made comments like Arum did and we can talk

[SteveM]

Sad part is, that hype was so weak...
Dude doesn't even have 20 fights and he got two unavenged losses.

yea, they tried to make the Loma-Lopez rematch last week but Loma cowardly pulled out.

[KillaMane26]

He knows Terrance Crawford is leaving so he's talking all the sh** he can. I think Terrance is going to PBC to fight porter, pac and spence.

What I think... Arum not dumb... So he getting behead of everything by acting like he don't need him.

[VashDBasher]

It will do Crawford no good if he stays with Top Rank. The majority of the top welterweights are with PBC. Crawford will get a nice payday and better matchups if he goes over there. He’ll be gaining more than he’ll be losing.

Arum built Floyd up.

Yep but then had a nice ceiling in place that he didn't see Floyd breaking through. Thank God Floyd had enough sense to know he was dead wrong.

It's crazy how people are so anti Bud, they choose to act like none of this stuff hasn't happened with Arum over decades with different fighters. They leave for a reason.

Some people put themselves into the position of "Promoter," "Boss," or "GM," and others see themselves as the "fighters," "players," or "workers." The Wannabee Bosses think, "Hey, I found you, marketed you, and I own you! You should be happy that I own you too!" Those people love Arum! Even with "needles, fake contracts, and everlasting contracts, etc.!" The fans of the fighters feel like, "Hey, the people come to see the fighter! The fighter is the one putting his life on the line, etc.!" Those people love Crawford!

So there's fight trash talk, but shoe me where he made comments like Arum did and we can talk

When he was unable to sign people from PBC and Top Rank he threw a fit talking about how guys only care about money so they can “buy some gold chains” but they’re afraid of the legacy that only he could offer. Not to mention he has the inability to keep other promoters fighters out of his mouth.

That’s just off the top of my head. I’m at work right now.

Did this liar just say Bob Arum is too old to lie?

“I don't blame Bob because he's too old to tell lies. He doesn't care. He just don't care.

Man these snakes move to the same rhythm. The whole BS that Crawford is not earning for him is an old @ss lie that goes back to Arum’s black fighters don’t sell boxing Mythology.

A statement made when Floyd Mayweather his ex-fighter was the highest paid ATHLETE in the world!!! Crawford does higher ratings than anyone else on ESPN. He kept your contract with them healthy.

Legend is this old mutha****a was cloned from Pinocchio’s nose. His old marionette face even looks like he is made of wood.

Mark my words...Another Star will be made as soon as Terrance gets the balls to tell his boss to kick boulders until his wooden legs crack the **** off.
