    does anyone now know why Oscar wants to work with BOb? I would understand him wanting to try but something must have really gotten into him for him to split with Schaefere. Im pretty sure if they wouldve continued not making fights together Arum wouldve probably dissappeared like Don KIng did and GBP wouldve been the only big promotional complany around. I mean Arums stable is already very weak just look at who Pacquiao has to be fighting.

    Oscar cares about the sport of boxing and staging the best match ups.

    I don't really care why they work together, I just want some Top Rank vs Golden Boy fights to happen. It's good for boxing.

    Why does Oscar work with Arum?

    For the same reason why many boxers still sign with Don King, they have no other better options.
    King and Arum have been in the business for so long, they know all the right palms to grease and officials to bribe in order to get a favourable outcome.
    On a longer scale, this is why The US and UK work with Israel. Israel knows exactly who to bribe or whitemail to get their way.

    Floyd didn't cause it, but he sure as hell isn't fixing it either.

    You sound like a brain washed idiot. Robert Arum still has 3 of the 5 best Welterweights in Manny, JMM, and Bradley
    Oscar has a ton of young Welters who haven't prove jack sh*t yet and could use Top Ranks stars to gain notierty since Floyd won't touch the black ones with a 10 foot pole (thurman, porter,broner)

    GBP has a pretty good stable though, they could keep making in house fights for a while, other than Pacquiao there isnt another very popular fighter in TOp Rank.

    if floyd was so insecure...why did they walk from 50/50 and a 14 day cutoff....and roach admitted it....why? who was insecure

    this war was caused by bobs antics.....his insulting offer for donaire/mares....and many other quotes in the media he has made.....

    the inecurities lie with arum....he didnt want his pet touched by his former protege.....he let him near oscar cuz he knew oscar was finished and a corpse...he wouldnt let him near floyd.......floyd broke free from arum and became a megastar(that is fact)....bob doesnt like that...he likes yes men pets who need him more than he needs them

    bob is a dinosaur....he doesnt like fighters having control...he likes the good ole boy way of promotions...."you need me to make you a star....you do what i say".......floyd goes against it....hes everything a guy like bob hates which is a dumb fighter without an education who becomes a superstar without a guy like him to lead the way....luckily for floyd he found some black men who actually care about a guy like him a little bit.....to show him the way.....arum doesnt like that ****.....

    thats why arum has kept him away from pac...with every excuse imaginable

    he wants to get some dates with hbo, set up big fights with tr to the fighters that remain with gbp.

    "if khan goes back to gbp, he could get the pac fight."

    "we're looking at gbp fighters for jmm's next opponent."

    these quotes sounds like arum is making gbp/oscar the better option than schaeffer/haymon.

    Cos Arums got the deal with China and that my friends is where all the money lies.
    Vegas yearly turnover = estimated 6 billion, Macau estimated turn over 16 billion.
    Oscar wants some of that!
