Arum put Mosley in there with pacquiao on PPV! And we all knew mosley was down after the floyd fight. I dont think he has the right to speak on the subject. If hopkins was top rank, arum would be spewing how hopkins is going for history by fighting cloud yada yada.

Wow, that's a lot of lip from a cranky old tightwad who refuses to do business with GBP. Just STFU Bob, really.
He refused to do business with a rival promotional company, which robbed us of the biggest fight in boxing history.
As if the damage wasn't bad enough, he went on record recently, and said that he doesn't want to make Donaire/Mares, Rios/Matthysse, or any other fight with GBP...but he has the nerve to downtalk their efforts?! Really?
I'll admit, Bob puts together some nice cards, and this weekend's cards proves it. With that in mind, he should really just STFU with all of the crying about what another promotional company is doing.Last edited by MeanestNiceGuy; 01-18-2013, 01:57 PM.

Hopkins earn the right to fight on HBO.
Hopkins fights draw very good ratings.
There are MANY reasons to watch Hopkins fight Cloud.. especially at 48.
1- Can the legend do it yet again.
2- Can he deliver something past our expectations in terms of excitement value?
Remember everyone thought Hopkins-Pascal II was gonna be a borefest.. that ended up a back and forth battle with plenty of great action.
3- IS THIS THE MATCH HOPKINS FINALLY GETS STOPPED OR KNOCKED THE *** OUToooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
4- He's literally the last of the Mohicans. He's the only fighter still looking strong from the PREVIOUS era. I don't even count RJJ anymore.
Bob Arum should shut his old azz up... dumb azz mother***er piece of shyt.
He deserves a public **** fisting with someone's bare knuckle hands for talking trash about Hopkins.
I would literally love to stick my entire arm up Bob Arum's azz and tear that hole apart. make it bleed.

I agree with arum and I disagree with arum
Yes he's right, u do need to put on fights featuring young stars, and u need to put up the "best" vs the "best"
But Hopkins is making boxing history...if u love the sport, u will watch the fight, any true boxing fan would love to watch this...no, its not for the masses, its for the older audiences who watched Hopkins in the 90's make the longest streak of defenses for a title
The man is 48 yrs old and he's competitive with guys half his age, i was going nuts when he beat pascal, the fact that he's 48 yrs old and he boxes guys who are in their 20's pretty damn good is amazing to see
you have to respect that

the reason why arum doesn't like this fight, is cuz it doesn't make him money, anything that doesn't make him money, any fight where he might lose money, he hates, Hopkins continuing to fight is VERY good for boxing, it's just not good for arums pockets.

Originally posted by Ravens Fan View PostSure Bhop will get credit for it if he wins. However, I don't personally care where Cloud is ranked he still isn't that good of a fighter. The fact that he fights even less than Hopkins himself surely isn't helping his cause. But honestly I hope that Cloud knocks Bhop right into retirement.
I'm not a fan of either Cloud or Rios, just making a comparison. Neither of them should even have an 0.
