    It looks like all 3 of these fights are a GO!

    Naoya Inoue Vs. Stephen Fulton
    Devin Haney Vs. Vasiliy Lomachenko
    Tyson Fury Vs. Oleksandr Usyk

    This is a long shot, but not impossible. Bivol isn't a massive money machine, so I can see Hearn cashing out on the fight.

    Artur Beterbiev Vs. Dmitry Bivol

    2023 is an incredible year for boxing thanks to the Bobfather.

    Meanwhile Gaymon is playing with his marionettes who are wrestling with court trials, fake injuries, and clinical depression.

    :lol:

    From a fan's perspective Arum is the best promoter. Haymon, Hearn, etc. are fighter's promoters. That's why they take the easiest road possible to the most amount of money possible. At the end of the day, Arum will put his stable in the fire.

    Hearn said he'd be happy to make Inoue-Akhmadaliev as well.

    That's why it's stupid as hell when boxing fans (Gaymonites) claim Bob doesn't make fights.

    If I were Bob, no way I would have let Pac fight Marquez 2 more times, Donaire fight Rigondeaux, etc.. Bob was trying to make Pacquiao-Lomachenko and Pacquiao-Crawford.

    Arum is the guy who will put the guys in the ring. It is odd to see people say he doesn't make fights when he has shown over and over again that he isn't afraid for his fighter to take a loss.

    Paid the judges for the Pacquiao Bradley fight whilst doing everything in his power to impede same and protect his cash cow. To prevent possibly the most important fight of the last 30 years of happening when it should have.

    As Hearn and Haymon would have also done.

    They are all the same. They are businessmen

    To be fair people were pissed that he made Pac vs Marquez 3 and 4. At the time it seems like Marquez was past prime and Bob was getting easy wins and cashing in on their rivalry.
