Who is the last black boxer Bob Arum built up into a PPV star?

[daggum]

Oscar, Manny, Mikey, Cotto all left Arum first chance they got.

first chance? dont think so. they all were signed to him for years and years, only leaving when their popularity was huge(cept for mikey lol)

[daggum]

He didnt turn down the Manny fight youre trying to embellish Manny, TC wants the Manny fight and "apparently" it was ready to go, thats not turning down the fight.

he said the money wasnt right. thats turning it down. especially when you consider it was 6.5 million which is more than he's made and almost as much as thurman just made who was much more popular than him. it was ready to go...he wasnt and thats ok, maybe he will get more money for it later but dont pretend like he's doing everything he can to get it, hes "betting on himself" as wilder the dunce would say. hopefully it turns out better for crawford and i suspect it will since hes actually good and wilder wasnt

but why is calling out your fighter a bad thing? crawford just turned down the pac fight. why shouldnt his promoter be mad at that? should they be total boot lickers 24/7?

His role for the fighter is a PROMOTER, not manager, not career critic, not journalist, not reporter... but PROMOTER.

Go look up the definition of the word and then look up what it means with respect to the sport of boxing and then edit your reply.

Dana White has turned more black fighters into PPV stars and household names than Bob Arum.. and I’m not even much of an MMA fan.

Oh so if the money isnt right it means your ducking and should take the low rent offer, Im surer than positive ALL fighters have turned down a money offering.

Remember Floyd phoning Manny personally with the largest purse offer Manny had ever recieved 20 mill to be wired into Mannys account within the hour,, and Manny said no to his highest at the time purse, well guess what it applys to Bud and any other fighter that wants more than they are offering, all negotiations start at the lower end.

If it were me Id have TC fight Manny for whatever it took to make the fight even a low 2mill, because the performance of destroying Manny will be that push into the real big time from then on.

Nicholas Walters??? Oh wait Bob RUINED his career..

Fed him to Chenko.

[Ochoa780]

Fed him to Chenko.

After shelfing him for a year lol. He did the same to mikey basically, dragged out the litigation even tho I think mikey won his case

[Cobratu]

...and no, it wasn't Floyd.

Bud now knows and Shakur will find out.

The Brutha just be like eatin chitlins nah sayinn

[CharlieStewart]

The last black American ppv star. A better question is why haven’t Mayweather or haymon been able to create any black ppv stars?
