If Top Rank is so racist where is Allah Haymon to save all the young black prospects from the fate of Top Rank…

Like why the Thurman cars have filled with mediocre Mexicans that will have no long impact in the boxing world.

I’m just not buying the racist angle when TR sign all the black prospects. It’s very hard to break into the fight game without a major promoter backing.

Top Rank and boxing period is drunk off the Latino fans but i do think Top Rank try there hardest for a great white hope. They haven’t found him yet but they are trying.

It sucks that if they are indeed racist that black prospects don’t have any other decent options it seems.
TR probably offered the biggest signing bonus just like they offered Spence

...what did Arum do to Bradley again?
Blocked tim from fighting floyd after he beat marquez and manny. Lol.

He locked tim away at we and had him fighting all the euro bums and latinos he eanted to prop up instead of getting tim any big money fights against main event or pbc fighters.

Tim was just happy to get a few millions because his dumb ass trailer park wife was his manager. shyt was sad.

Shakur Stevenson and Oscar Valdez are both on top rank, and Bob still hasn't made the fight this is all the proof needed
It was the same situation when Floyd was on top rank and he wouldn't give him with Oscar and they both were on top rank
Bob said Floyd couldn't sell, he was on record saying black fighters can't sell, Floyd leaves and the rest is history
It's own record by matchmakers at Top Rank where they purposely avoid certain black fighters, this is documented well known information

De La Hoya left, Mayweather left, Cotto left, Mikey Garcia left, even Manny Pacquiao, and now Terrance Crawford, everyone knows Bob is full of shyt

Crawford was with some unknown promoter before Bob and wasn't making any money, getting actually paid from being a boxer was a ten times upgrade from what he was before, so he was loyal to bob, and didn't realize he was getting fukked

All the promotion dollars went to Lomachenko at ESPN and never became a draw, he can't sell a family a dinner, Crawford fight in the main arena, the last top rank card as madison square wasn't even in the Garden it was in the same room Jadakiss did versus Lomachenko can't sell shyt, and no one else on top rank

He put Crawford on ESPN plus which sabotaged all his ppv numbers and made him the B side to Erroll Spence

Easy bob rrfused to negotiate with floyd to make the fight

Tim beat manny, ruslan, someone tim never should have even fought coming off yhr manny win, then took out marquez. Those were the top 3 ww fighters in bobs stable at the time he called out floyd after the marquez fight. Bob then had him tird away rematching manny and then fighting latino guys he eanted to build up. fukking pathetic shyt.

As old as Arum is he's got to have some racism in his body. But to have made black fighters millions many times over means it will be hard to prove that in a court of law. Just cause he came from a different era in his day doesn't mean he couldn't have still treated the fighters fairly. Maybe just with a huge dislike for them or whatnot.

What makes you think Mayweather and Haymon would have done business with Arum to even make the fight? If I remember correctly at that time Golden Boy/Haymon/Mayweather were REFUSING to do business with TR/HBO. That's not Arums fault. That's all Haymon/Mayweather. It's the same crap going on now with the PBC- in house fights unless it makes financial sense to go elsewhere.

Why Floyd Mayweather vs. Timothy Bradley Will Never Happen

Don't let your hatred of white people cloud your judgement. You never ONCE heard Bradley complaining about Arum or TR. If anything, Arum got Tim 3 Pacquiao fights with multiple millions of dollars attached to each one. He fought on PPV in his big fights and had a nice career at TR.

You have to remember that fighters in the 70s & 80s were with Top Rank on a fight by fight basis. Bob Arum made fights in apartheid regime and tried to justify his actions.

To be honest I think Crawford has more of a chance proving that Arum did not promote his fights to the best of his abilities than racism. As I found that racism as a term is very hard to prove.

Fans: Both Shakur and Valdez have recent stoppage victories over the two longest tenured champs at 130, both undefeated, both young in their primes. Both with the same promoter, from a business standpoint and strategic standpoint that fight makes the most sense in maybe the entire sport of boxing. We want to see it make the fight Bob! :damn:

Bob Arum: Well I'm thinking we should move Navarette up from 126 even though he has unfinished business there to fight Valdez at 130, and Shakur can fight some cab driver off the street in the meantime! Mexican vs Mexican(even though that is how they advertised Valdez vs Berchelt also) showdown! :gladbron:

Fans: nikka what, nobody is asking for this fight we just told you what we want!:what:

Bob Arum: :mjgrin:
