Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: We Won't Beg Bob Arum To Work With Us

[mannyman]

And there lies the problem with boxing

[WESS]

These guys can't teel whether it day or night most of the time. Top Rank has the big champion. Arum is willing to pay Golden Balls for the use of their fighter, and also tohave a Golden Balls logo on top of Top Rank's,but as fir actively allowing Golden Balls to actively share the work he doesn't want this. I can't blame, him. Top Rank has made it's name as the best promoting company in the business. They can do itin a way which Oscar cannot repelicate, so why let him in to spoil the promotion.

Top Rank has offered enough to salve Oscar's woulded ego, and he should not stand in the way of his needy fighter earning a high payday. Top Rank pays much better than Golden Balls also........

Special ed at it again.... smh

and pacnuts think a FLoyd Pac fight will still go down with good ole Bobby around smh

So far you got
Oscar saying he wants the fight but won't beg Arum for it
And you got
Bob saying he wants the fight but DLH needs to man up

Anyone surprised?

Man up and do what? Arum DOESN'T want the fight period!!! There is way to duck a fight or in Arum's case Duck a promoter and he is ducking GBP here, No two ways about it and nothing for DLH to "Man up" about.

[Ray*]

Why is it so hard for Arum to just co-promote with them? Go look at the comments oscar made after pacquaio beat his azz..that's more than plenty.

Because Arum has to open his "books" if he dares co-promote with a rival promoter, Which would expose him to future dealings....You know Arum dont want that.

Lets just keep it pactart simple and run with the so and so is scared of so and so and it has nothing to do with Bob having an agenda.

Keeps the pactarted trolls from raging and spamming the threads.

It will but as a last resort when Pac is about to retire and all other options have been exhausted. When nothing is left for him to recycle and Pac is about to retire, you will see just how easily Bob Arum can make a fight when he wants to. He's only been doing it for decades.

Ray I think you got it right with this. Bob definitely doesn't want outsiders, let alone his inhouse fighters, know the real deal. This is the exact reason ODH and then floyd left TR.

Really because you aren't so misinformed as evidenced by your reply that you completely forget they co promoted the fight between DLH AND PACQUAIO. Only to have both Oscar and Schaeffer turn around talking hhh to kiss up to Mayweather the first time Pacquaio was mentioned as an opponent. Go do yourself a favor and look up Oscars interview for the time span of 1 day after the fight to 6 months after the fight and then come in here and tell all us of if you still feel the same way about Bob and Oscar. The irony here is that Oscar never once had a complaint about Bob while Bob was making him rich..the irony also is that in order for GBP to become top dog they'd have to dethrone Top Rank and quite frankly what better way than to make them look like the evil ones. Seriously folks need to do the damn research there's alot of Arum hating going on based on the same exact thing Oscar and company get a pass for.

Please STFU. GBP even formally/publicly apologized - per Arum's request - and that hasn't changed a Goddamn thing. If every promoter was hung up on something that occurred years prior, no fight would ever get made. So cut the BS and get off your knees, you useless alt.
