If you know anything about UFC President Dana White, the man doesn’t hold his tongue and he put boxing promoter Bob Arum on BLAST over the 4th meeting between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez.
Check out what he had to say & let us know what you think…
According to Edward Chaykovsky at BoxingScene:
Dana White told 5th Round that Pacquiao’s career was placed in jeopardy by putting him back in the ring with the opponent who gave him the most trouble. If it was White’s decision, he would have matched Pacquiao with Timothy Bradley, who won a controversial decision over the Filipino star in June. He predicts Pacquiao would have knocked Bradley out and then placed himself in position for Floyd Mayweather Jr. or another major fight.
“I’m the biggest Manny Pacquiao fan ever, I bet on Marquez,” White revealed Saturday night. “Dumbest fight in history. Bob Arum is a moron. You don’t take that fight, you idiot. Why would you do that fight? It’s all about the money, that’s why.
“That was a money fight, that’s what that fight was done for. [Pacquiao] should have fought [Timothy] Bradley. Bradley’s the fight they should have done. He would have knocked Bradley out, he would have got his belt back and now he’s back in the position he should have been in. [Pacquiao’s] one of the best fighters in the world. He goes out and fights Marquez again? Bob Arum is the dumbest promoter in the history of the world.”
