They did but he took a HUGE slice of the pie from them. He's the kind of promoter that preyed on the weak. Fighters that were desperate to get the big fights and he knew he could make them but at the cost of practically owning them. Since the fighter just saw those initial $$$ promised, they didn't think twice about signing the dotted line. That signing was the biggest mistake.
There is a documentary with the Klitschkos I remember watching where they were invited to Don King's house as he attempted to lure them into signing. They noticed he was playing the piano but it was like playing itself. They thought something was up with him at that point and said nah, we're good and left. Good thing they at least got out before he ruined them too, lol.
Classic scene that was

Pretty much.Looool.
Arum paid Amir Khan $5 million and Kell Brook $2 million to fight Crawford.
But he'll only pay Shawn Porter $1 million. And won't give Thurman a fair deal.
If he wants cheap fights there's always Yordenis Ugas. But guess what? He wants no part of that.
The old man is a vile piece of crap.
I don't like PBC. But Arum has been lowballing PBC fighters for quite some time now.
Fights that could've easily been made by Arum:
Inoue-Casimero
Inoue-Rigo
Crawford-Porter
Crawford-Thurman
Crawford-Spence
Loma-Mikey
just to name a fewComment

The only one that works (apparently) is Rogaine/Monoxidil. But (apparently) once you start that, you have to keep doing it for life. That's a lot of money just to not go bald.
Some people really shouldn't be bald, like Triple H and HBK. Brings new meaning to the term D-head.
But others it works, like Shaq.Comment

It's tough now with pandemic. It's also Bob just off the rails as he's gotten older. I was more so talking old school, prime Arum.Flip the script.
He DID get them big fights.
Fast forward, you have Bob Arum throwing money away for Crawford to spark C-levels, no big fights.
What's worse?
Getting paid to spark C-levels or taking less to become a legend?
Because almost every fighter King promoted before 2000 became a legend, even though broke.
Fighters have to choose their priority.Comment

Thurman is a corny ass dude. He doesnt come off as funny at all to me.
Arum is no saint but he’s given alot to this sport and have been putting on killer fights since way back. Who the *** is Thurman?
This dude fights as much as Gary Russell and he isnt much of a factor imo. He couldnt even beat an old ass Pacman lol
Go away dude with your gay ponytailComment
