    There was a time when he was good for the sport
    But now he’s too risk averse
    His in house tactics have gotten absurd
    Loma, Crawford, Valdez, all getting spoon fed
    Don’t expect Shakur Stevenson to be in a tough fight for at least 2022 lol
    Arum needs to retire!

    Look at the PBC welters. They all refuse to fight each other.

    Unfortunately, all of these promoters are this way. Promoters should be like lobbyists. If you are a promoter you can't also manage a fighter. Too much conflict of interest.

    He's 87 years old. He won't be retiring, he'll be passing away.

    As far as Crawford goes at least he and Arum have said that they want to fight Spence. However, if someone mentions the fight to Spence he seems to get upset. Seems like Al told Spence to keep Crawford's name out of his mouth.
