    ...to run boxing like the UFC. Ie own all the top fighters and have absoloute control over matchmaking, promotion etc. Who would you choose as the more competent man?

    Id probably go for Arum slightly. He shows willingness to match cash cows tough, knowing a defeat doesnt mean the end. That means more matches like Bradley vs Alexander or Ward vs Dirrell.

    They are all liars and snakes but if I had to choose I would pick Arum with his lying ass bc he would lie for me and get me some big money. Plus he will tell the world I am the best ever like he did to every other guy he has had that got on top.

    Arum because he knows how to get things done. GBP is doing great because of HBO. HBO gives it TV dates and buys its worst fights for a fortune. Arum does things with or without HBO. He even makes his own Latin Fury PPV. Arum also builds up fighters. he promotes them from scratch and turns them into stars. GBP pirates fighters with promises of HBO tv dates, and good luck with building up jacobs and ortis lol

    I'd choose Arum.

    Shaefer is younger and greedier!

    He doesnt think its good for the fans. Its good for his wallet. But if HE owned Marquez or Mayweather, those fights would have happened.

    ^^ Arum owned Floyd once but the Cotto and MArgo fight didn't happen. it won't happen if one boxer does not want it to happen.

    GBP didn't build Khan, Warren did. GBP lured Khan into its fold with an HBO date with Malignaggi

    Can't stand either but Arum is the devil so Schaeffer. Wish Arum would just croak already
