    Some of the most prominent Boxing promoters have been renowned for only caring about money; Arum, King, etc.

    Are there any Boxing promoters that generally care about the fighter?

    It's a tough one.


    Did Jim Jacobs help promote Tyson, or was he more background

    BiBella seems to have an affection for JT and Paulie and most of his other fighters

    I like Mick Hennessy in the U.K.
    Brian Peters in Ireland and Lou DiBella in the States.
    Do they care about their fighters, i don't know but they don't seem as Greedy as the likes of Frank Warren, Arum and King.

    I believe Jim along with Bill Cayton were co-managers and Tyson was
    a 'free agent' (with regard to promotional ties), until Jim's (all to early) passing.
