    Old money has the police, the politicians and the lawyers backing them up. You don't **** with old money. You **** with old money you **** with the boys in blue, and the boys in blue always win. That's the thing about law enforcement here in America. Nobody ****s with the cops.

    Prince is old money at this point first rap label in the south in the 80s. The feds were trying to get prince for years but couldn't touch him. He beat the Fed case because no one would snitch on him he has a army of loyal soldiers on his team. He moves like the president here in my city houston, with motorcades and ****. Arum dont want any smoke with prince he paid the man for a reason. The man is certified from coast to coast he's respected and connected. Alot of yall dont know the deal I've seen it first hand many times.

    Arum needs to remember that he works for the fighters, not the over way around.

    As the promoter, it's his fault if he's losing money on Crawford. Thats his job, to promote a fighter.

    Bob is the promoter! If he loses money because the fight isn't promoted well enough, he is to blame, not the fighter.

    You clearly do not have any idea of how the promoter business works. Bob is not talking about shows or events. He's talking about the whole Terrence Crwaford package and all the money he invested and what he got in return. A boxing promoter is investing much more than in an event or show. You should probably inform yourself about that topic before talking out loud. It doesn't matter if Bob Arum is a POS or not, I can definitely see him losing money long term with Bud. Bud is boring and not a big draw despite being a good fighter.

    Sure, but Arum's still a top dog in boxing on an international level and has been around for years.

    It’s a well know fact that Arum keeps a derringer tucked in his tux.
    He always ready for the pop off.:camper:

    Arum is the promoter. You clearly don't understand the definition of the word. Arum is paid to promote, Crawford is paid to fight. That's how it works. Promoters, in their greed convolute the process to RIP fighters off. **** Arum!
    Arum has arguably the best fighter in the world and is losing money on him? Says more about Arum as a promoter than Crawford as a fighter.
