“Mr. Interviewer, remain neutral next time, do not argue with whoever you interviewing, you seem unprofessional.”
Fail. Ariel’s opinion is more interesting that Arum’s.
Plus people shouldn’t be doormats. If an interviewer gets offended, he should speak up about it, and Ariel did.

manny paqueio needs to get a new promoter Arum uses pacman like don king used mike tyson, and we all know how that turned out.. not to change subjects but tyson could have had a huge future in boxing..I know he had his own problems but with the right mentor things would have been different..

then answer me this why do bare knucles have more of a ko rate than both??bare knuckle a lot smaller than both.. good analogy but apply it to something other than fighting sports.. Another thing is why do you think heavyweight boxers use heavier ounce gloves than lightweights.. if your theory is true it should b the other way around..

im disappointed that this fat asshole of a man is criticizing mayweathers style, i would of thought that someone that involved with the sport would have more appreciation for the art of boxing.

boxing gloves have a higher impact force because of theyr’e size but mma gloves cut your face up more due to the less padding. if a pebble hits you at 30mph it will sting, if a stone hits you at 30mph it will knock you out cold, same principle with boxing gloves.

so what if people have Tattoos. People have their own specific reasons that they have tattoos. And theres mutlcultural people who do compete in MMA and watch MMA. not only whites. You can even go to an MMA gym and find different races of people who train and are friendly and help each other out. I’m not saying they don’t have that in Boxing gyms too. But both MMA/Boxing are respectable sports. No need for the nonsense hate.

This greedy corrupt bigoted kike is the reason boxing is in the state that it’s in. Boxing is almost dead in this country and he’s one of the assholes who’s to blame.

I like both! Boxers can be masters of their trade (punches and such). MMA guys need to be more well rounded and so they often aren’t masters of any one type. Boxers have a limited amount of things to worry about and MMA guys have to worry about more, that’ my opinon of why boxers often have better boxing, they only need to focus on that. I have seen some MMA fighters with more impressive boxing than those fighters though. Those that are a master of a type have an advantage when going into MMA.

So if a white MMA fighter has tattoos, he’s a skinhead by default? OK my bad
floyd mayweather
Nope.. its an accurate response

Arum is refering to the typical MMA fighters.. Bob is right!

Other than that, boxing gloves offer more KO effect than MMA gloves do. I’ve been hit by all 3 enough times and with enough experience to tell you which one rattles your brain more.

And those are impacts on lbs per square inch. I know about those already. You’re completely ignoring the different TYPES of impact these punches create. The actual KO chance is ranked as follows:
Bare Knuckle > Boxing Gloves > MMA Gloves
I explained before why. The only time MMA gloves overrides it is when it lands on certain specific pinpoints that causes a KO, a specific enough point that a boxing glove won’t be as easily able to hit.

So Rampage Jackson, Anderson Silva, Din Thomas,Rashad Evans, Anthony Johnson, Thiago Silva are skinheads too. I’m as black as the ace of spades and I love the sport of MMA so fuck you Arum!
