Well the guy is 82, who knows how much longer he'll be doing it. He probably sees the writing on the wall that he's losing his foothold in the sport and one of his last big stars might jump. Who knows what goes on behind closed doors.
It wouldn't matter at all if Arum was caught leaking stuff about Pac; most boxers go running to promoters anyway regardless of their reputation of being crooks (Don King). They need them. Nothing would happen to Bob.

And I get a strong feeling that kind of people could talk and smile their way out of anything. Even if it's something true.

Regarding Pac, wouldn't a PED scandal ruin his future career in politics back in the Philipines? Or would they just worship him there anyway? I mean, I've read somewhere that even crime rates go down in the whole country when there's a Pacquiao fight.
