Bob Arum Unloads: "The UFC is Junk, It's Garbage"

[MJ406]

even if 90% of MMA fans have tattoos .. why bother bringing it up?

Arum said he "didn't care" yet he's bothering to bash MMA/UFC in the first place.

why don't these promoters/fighters just realize they are being baited into bashing the other sport

it all gets very tiresome.

They've made us adapt as they do an unbelievable job in certain aspects - and we're trying to duplicate that. They're sensational promoters and are class guys who have built a good business. But I think the majority of my generation agree that it's junk, " Arum said.


Without doubt the most honest and truthfull summing up of UFC I have ever heard......quite funny too.

[Shattered Jaw]

LMFAO. That Arum interview is legendary. He is plain angry.

OH JEEZ> LIKE *******UALS LOL.

Bob Arum should have not done that. Let the UFC do the talking. Boxing will always be boxing no matter what. It's the heart of the fans who admires the sport the most. That's what I do. I love boxing no matter what.

[P4P Opinion]

Arum has his stereotype all wrong. If you were forced to stereotype the average MMA fan (and it's a bad idea to have a stereotype for any group) you'd be better saying any of the following: middle-class, young, short attention span. That's just in my experience, although I know it can't be true of everyone. I'm not hating on MMA fans.

why does every boxing interview have to include questions about mma? two seperate sports, mma guys take interviews like this and floyd's and run with it like "they're so jealous, they can't stop talking about us", they're just answering the question they were asked honestly, why are you at a boxing press conference asking about ufc? i'm actually trying to get into ufc but it'll take a while just like it took me a while to understand boxing and all the subtle stuff that goes on more than the casual fan, but this ufc vs. boxing nonsense is corny

[MindBat]

LOL! I bet Bob secretly bets on UFC fights.

[BigMacFoster]

Arum is a delusional old clown,but he's right in this case.

It is said that mmGAY is taking over and boxing is dying,I can assure you that shall boxing die and mmGAY does indeed take over,then I shall follow boxing to the grave beore ever convert to watching that piece of **** show.


I love the way he called out mmGAY fighters for having glass jaws also because it is the complete and utter truth,In boxing the jab is just a basic set up,feel out punch,In mmGay,it's a legitimate knockout punch,Lol.These guys just can't take a punch to save their lives


I have absolutely no respect for mmGAY fighters and their mediocre athleticism.

If you want to be a ufc star then WWE is the right place to start.











This is the chin of the average mmGAY fighter,And this all took place on the same show,Lol
