What does a post-Bob Arum boxing world look like?

Not wishing Arum to pass away or anything but I’d love to see him get his grubby hands out of boxing. At least we can have some hope that some different ideas can take root but it will be a long slow process. I did have a little more hope for PBC.

Arum and King, sleazy as they may have been, can't be denied their credit for keeping boxing in the limelight.

To promote, you almost need an outlandish personality and a willingness to take risks. Of the former boxers delving in promotion right now, I just don't see that same type of personality and/or mentality. Yeah, boxing will trudge on in its current state.... but IMO we need one or two forward-looking people who can grab the reins and try and increase boxing's popularity. The talent will always be there.
