This year marks 50 years of promotions for Bob Arum. He is also making it one of his most controversial. Yesterday’s press conference for the Pacquaio-Bradley 3 undercard kicked off in Los Angeles, and Arum has given this undercard the title of the Donald Trump undercard.
“I am completely disgusted by these politicians and their hate for the Hispanic/Latino race in this country. So before one of these guys gets elected and deports all the Hispanics, I wanted to pack a card with the best of the best in the business right now,” said Arum.
Arum continued to make jokes about the political issue, and even Evgeny Gradovich’s manager Egis Klimas joined in. “We are in a tough position because they really don’t like Russians, or Mexicans and Evgeny is the the Mexican Russian.”
The undercard for Pacquiao-Bradley kicks off at 9:00 pm, EST/6:00 pm, PST on HBO pay-per-view, April 9 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
