Comments Thread For: Arum Really Pumped For Start of Pacquiao-Mosley Hype
Top Ranks' CEO Bob Arum is stoked about the beginning of the press tour for the May 7 welterweight title fight between Manny Pacquiao and "Sugar" Shane Mosley at MGM Grand.
Arum may be a scumbag but when he puts his weight into it (literally and figuratively), he definitely knows how to promote a fight. Regardless that Mosley is past his prime, this is going to appeal to alot more to casual fans with the CBS push than it would have normally...
What is the over/under for how many times Mayweather's name gets mentioned during this promotion? If the Pac/Margarito build up is anything to go by then it should be pretty high.
Bob Arum can pour syrup on **** and call it pancakes, and people on this site would gladly eat it right up. He only went to CBS for the March Madness spots. He's not doing this to bring boxing back to the networks, he's doing it to save the garbage fight known as Pacquiao/Mosley.
