Re: Arum is a disgrace to boxing
Agreed Wright/Williams was a quality bout between two top quality fighters, nothing to criticize,Originally Posted by miles
As for Arreola not much you can do about that but I cant give Chris too much credit for beating McCline, look at the shape Jameel was in, self admited he was retired and they offered him a decent payday that had a big reward and little risk

Re: Arum is a disgrace to boxing
This is not in defense of Arum for I generally consider promoters as a bunch of greedy pimps... Arum criticized Goosen promoted fights and we realized he has some good points and also just being an a$$ on some points...
But to be fair, Arum has some of the best boxers around and promoted some of the great cards in recent memories... Just like this weekend's fight between Donaire-Martinez and Viloria-Solis, it's a very good card but unfortunately HBO and Shotime didn't pick it up... Arum once again, come out on his own and offer this card to the American public as a PPV priced at $24.95 using his own resources...
Sometimes he's a "disgrace" and sometimes he does some good things for boxing...

Re: Arum is a disgrace to boxing
i wouldn't say he's a disgrace, just at his age he does get a bit bitter at times, you gotta remember he is the founder of one of the oldest promotion companies to still be running, and younger guys like Goosen and GBP are making a lot of noise, plus a lot of Arums biggest names have either left him or retired, or both, such as Morales, Oscar De La Hoya, and Floyd Mayweather Jr., he still puts on great cards, and knows what fans want, and gotta give him credit for going out of his way most of the times to get the biggest fights made, DLH/Pacquiao and Pacquiao/Hatton are 2 good examples

Re: Is this for real?
Its rubbish fight and i couldn't care at all for Antonio Margarito, i won't be watching the fight.Margarito vs Baldomir?
What exactly is Bob Arum trying to prove by making this fight? A win over Baldomir means absolutley nothing!!!! ( considering plaster hands wins ). Is Bob Arum trying to pove a point of some sort to the CSAC by hosting these worthless fight cards in Tijuana of all places? Nothing against Tijuana itself but I mean come on this is really getting rediculous now. Of all people, he decides to match him up with Baldomerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I bet the only reason Baldomir took this fight is because he desperate for money. I really hope that when the suspension is up nobody in Cali will fight plaster hands. He screwed up in my opinion and should never be allowed to fight ever again in California. Hell he can stay in T.J. and beat on chumps like Baldomir for all I care.( Arum n plaster hands )

Re: Is this for real?
It is a rubbish fight and I hope people ignore it the best they can. Baldomir is old and done, and Margarito shouldn't be boxing anywhere.

Re: Is this for real?
Baldomir is a good , solid fighter. He was champion for a reason, and it will be no easy fight for Margarito. I hope Baldo shocks him.
