When did fighters start being promoters puppets?

I very much agree with this. Arum pretty much have 100% control over almost any fighter he handles. I hate him for that. He doesn't want to let them decide for themselves. Just ****ing shut up Bob and let them do what they want!!!

This is why I like Pacquiao even more. He's one of the very few fighters on Top Rank who doesn't conform to what Arum wants him to do. He can do what he wants, and he can fight who he wants. If Pac wants to fight the best, he's not gonna have Arum on his back yapping and yapping on what he should do.

 

Arum fighters like Pavlik,Pac,Margarito,Cotto,Soto etc... fight way more dangerous fighters and usually way more often than the other promoter's fighters do; thus half of the posters on this thread must be either delirious or are being paid to post by Don King or Oscar or Ellerby
