Bob Arum and Floyd Mayweather are natural enemies. But the promoter may have gone the distance in his name calling.
Arum, who used to promote Mayweather but now works with Manny Pacquiao, compared his former client to a Nazi propagandist.
Talking to ESPN 1100 in Las Vegas, about whether we’ll ever see a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight, Arum talked about Mayweather’s demand that his opponent take a drug test.
“…For two years Pacquiao has said that he will take any drug test whoever administers it so why is that still being talked about by Mayweather?” asked Arum. “You see Mayweather is from the school of propaganda that Joseph Goebbels, who was (Adolf) Hitler’s publicist, adopted. The more you say things over and over again the more people believe them.”
Arum talked at length about purse splits, pay-per-view numbers, location of the fight and Mayweather’s fear of lefthanders. But the comparison to Goebbels was the uppercut he delivered best. (Thanks to sportsradiointerviews.com for the assist)
