Good kick back Ozz The truth is boxing anseres to no one in the long run other then to those in the fight game and it is a tight clique of promoters, platforms and bodies etc.. So I follow your reply. During the dark days of the Pandemic and no crowds allowed I often wondered how Arum could have allowed Big Baby a chance to fight he turned up dirty and it did not happen but it stuck in my mind. Guilty or distracted who knows ? It brought some attention to the fight even tho Big Baby never fought on the card. Accidental/miscue who knows but it stuck with me. Arum has brought a lot of fights to the fans but he is a promoter. The hardship of ex-boxers is the responsibility of all envolved is how I see it that includes the fans so good point on that one too. They call the shots, they make the money so they ansere to themselves until fans learn or decide to hold back on paying for fights or watching fights then they have a say until then they ansere to no one.
