Team Loma was very very lucky when they chose Bob Arum

    Eastern Europen fighter fighting for a world title in his second professional boxing match, 3rd fight in StubHub, 5tf fight in MGM, already a known name in the States, etc. etc.

    You cant tell me any other boxer who got these opportunities in his first 12 fight.

    Of course he is an ATG, but Bob Arum did hell of a job.

    Shame he did such an awful job for Matt Korobov though, Korobov himself was the P4P number 1 in the amateurs.

    He's 30 years old. I know fighters who were headlining in Vegas before 25.

    The dick riding is getting ridiculous.

    That wasn't luck. That was being smart.
