In simple terms - You don't have to be a prick to put bums on seats. It works for some, not for others.
Arrogance doesnt mean you have to be a prick about anyone!?

Eubank Jr rarely says anything bad about anyone. He just projects a solid belief that he will win and can beat anyone.

Arrogance is what people perceive self confidence to be. The general slob who cant be bothered to acheive much in life will get annoyed with people like Eubank and Fury because they are so sure of themselves when those slobs are not. Slobs are aftaid to try and fail.
