    How old is he?
    He seems to suffer from old age ailment.
    He makes really good fights at times, but then his ailment kicks in and then he tries to makes b.s. fights like pavlik-mora.
    Then ignores certain fighters like clottey for a lot of his career.
    Then acts like a kid with dealing with Williams' people when making a fight.

    I really dont like Arum. I wish he was at the very least consistent.

    I believe that he is, like Don King, in his 70s. Those two are the old guard promoters that are blind to the fact that they are losing their control over the sport.

    Nopes that's not true . . . he just chose to ignore things and events that won't give him that much money. :D

    in all seriousness i dont totally agree with that.

    i think he could make much more money but he throws childish fits and holds grudges like a child at times

    but maybe its all part of his master plan
