Oscar De La Hoya talks about Bob Arum being the reason for all the best boxing match-ups not happening.
Arum !!! corrupt manipulative jew
Can someone explain the logic behind Bob Arum not wanting these mega-fights to occur? And is there corroborating evidence that he is the reason why they’re not happening?
yeah Garfield High lol
I went to school with this guy and his best friend Eric and he never spoke one word. Good guys through
if he did and one of his big fighters lost they also lose marketability but that said it can also do the polar opposite if its real competitive and u do a remach or a trilogy u can end up making a ton more money. he just dont wanna take that chance. that racist coward lying F***. ur cancer to boxing Bob…. GET THE F*** OUT
“Look, aah…” Are u serious?i mean, iz he drunk or just concentrating on sumthing else?
He’s making no point – just givin’ sum “we gonna make these fights”,”the fans gotta want it”…. Bla-bla-bal-thoughts!
@jointlocker: An easy example is the way they protect CHavez Jr… Golden Boy wants to put him in with Canelo Alvarez, since they are both good up and comers… but Bob Arum doesnt wanna throw in his big name in Chavez Jr cos hes afraid he may lose, and there goes the Chavez mystique out the window, and so will big pay days. OH BTW I think Canelo would destroy CHavez Jr.
Aram holds back the mega fights because th elonger he waits the more anticipation there is. Aram is a greedy fuckign jew bag whom is destroying boxing.
i bet these guys cannot wait for bob to just die already…..
Oscar de la Hoya is the only ma on the planet who could beat Nick Diaz in his own game. I mean, of coure, the number of “you know”s one can say per minute. Unbelievable performance in this interview.
@ericssson I like you.
De La Hoya is right! Top rank only care about the money, rather than the fans.
Is he related to the Diaz bros? He sounds like it….ha ha
hmmm… getting less and less articulate… bonk bonk bonk. ow.
“you know, uh uh. We just WANT the fights! You know how it is.” I like De La Hoya but its a gooood thing he retired when he did. I don’t think it would’ve been safe for him to take any more shots to the head.
He seems fine to me, he was just carefully wording what he was saying considering the subject matter as well as it being a recorded interview. Real guys that are ripping on him, real. (real.)
oscar sounded a lil punch drunk in this interview, but none the less, he’s one of my favorite boxers of all time, leave everything else aside, he beat Mayweathers ass and I love him for that
Do you guys know that Evel Knievel also hated Bob Arum because when he hire him to promote the Snake River Canyon jump, Bob Arum took almost all the money
I think Arum sucks too, but sheesh, these comments…
Hurray for anti-antisemitism! -_-
If the mayweather vs paquiao fight happens, what would happen to boxing after that? They want boxing to stay as long as possible since there isn’t another match the fans really want to see.
im surprised someone hasnt offed arum. that would be a awful idea but a intervention on the other hand would be marvelous! all the people that thinks he is an ass can show up at his house and wisk him away to a half ass house! to drill some sense into him,greedy bastard!
Apparently, typing with all caps will get you deleted but spouting anti semitic remarks is a-ok
i loved watchin oscar fight as well. i also agree hes just really trying to pick his words carefully is all. boxing was cool in the day when oscar, trinidad, vargas & prime jones were fighting etc i’d still be a fan if it were as it was & before in the suga ray days =)
You guys do realize that De La Hoya is a *recovering* cocaine addict , alcoholic and as so messed up that he let a stripper take pictures of him cross dressing right? Dude’s brain is fried… that being said Arum is a greedy guy and once he dies it’ll make boxing a better place.
definately punch drunk… damn shame.
