Crawford responds to Spence wanting 60/40 split

And sadly thats the state of top level boxing, there will always be this brick wall stalemate, there needs to be head Commission involvement where they can decide a fair split otherwise it just keeps going around in circles until they wake up that if it stalls any longer the big payday is gone. Id like to see a government agency that oversees boxing and set the purse structure in big fights and over turn decisions etc, take it out of the hands of guys crying I want more, here is what the board decides take it or no fight kinda deal. Yes right...... Boxing is the dope game of sports

Neither sells enough regardless of who does more. My issue is the 147 resumes. Based on that Spence deserves more And sadly thats the state of top level boxing, there will always be this brick wall stalemate, there needs to be head Commission involvement where they can decide a fair split otherwise it just keeps going around in circles until they wake up that if it stalls any longer the big payday is gone.

Dangerously close to “doesnt want it” territory

Does anyone think that in the case of 40/40 + 20% to win would make any difference in this fight? Say it happens when crowds are back & gets lots of buys and ends up a $20M pot for arguments sake. You really think for either of these world class undefeated the difference between $8M & $12M would make the slightest difference in the ring, I just can't see it happening. Ive always thought such a system would make for better fights and its fair, the winner should get the most.

I wish the very best guys would realize the big drawing $ is neither on their own, its the matchup that is the draw its the matchup that brings in the money, instead of playing Im better I want more just agree to 50/50 with a bonus to the winner. The money back and forth is really just stalling the fight thinking its marinating, which if they both keep winning it is building up to be a bigger fight just the way thats just how it is, if one loses then they lost that chance. All sides are right and unless you have a governing body that decides the purse splits then marinating over money will always happen.

Haymon has rigged Garcia to play soft with Spence and so now Spence is laying the ground work to duck Crawford after the fake win vs Garcia. Boycott pbc haymon spence, it's the only way to force Spence vs Bud. Only way. I really can't stand this idiot

crawford needs this more than spence...

Another thing Bud needs to understand, Spence Has Options...BIG OPTIONS! Even Canelo knows that a fight with him and Spence Jr is BIG $$$. They would sell out Cowboys Stadium together easily and that would make a lot of money. Now of course it is a Suicide Mission for Spence Jr going up for Canelo BUT considering the amount of money he would be paid to do it, it would be well worth it for him! So yeah just something else to think about! That being said, Spence Jr need to focus on Danny Garcia right now anyway, Danny is always tough so I don't see that being easy for Spence Jr and if Danny Lands one of those "No Look Left Hook" he can do some serious damage to a guy coming back from a serious accident

I swear if this fight happens it’s going to be a boring ass fight with both of these guys playing it safe. Honestly neither guy to me is worth millions. They keep banking on this fight doing Mayweather-Pacquiao PPV numbers but I don’t see it. People won’t care

By that logic, fighters moving up in weight to fight champions should get less because they're unproven at the new weight. It should be the opposite, you've cleaned out your weight (Bud was undisputed at 140), so now your making the move up and taking the risk. The bigger guy now gets to fight a smaller guy than usual. The guy moving up deserves the bigger check. There are many variables involved. Spence-Crawford isn't an old vet versus a young lion, or a superstar versus an up and comer. Both a similar in age, are both P4P, are at a similar star status, and both need a win over the other to go up a level in respect and popularity. 50-50 is more or less fair. This shouldn't be as complicated and drawn out as two worldwide phenoms like Mayweather and Pacquiao, who were already ATG and could get huge checks fighting anybody. Spence Junior is more of the king at 147 then Crawford, Crawford has invaded the division. The reason why I stated 45/55 is because it is smaller than 20% difference, Crawford may well accept 'A 20% difference 60/40, I don't agree with'. Nobody really know's what condition Spence Junior is in 'I think his next fight, is a real fight'. I don't think Spence Junior believes Crawford has done enough at 147 to get 50/50, if Crawford faces Porter or Thurman and wins? Then I think a 50/50 fight is more likely.

45/55 In favor of Spence Junior. Terrence Crawford has achieved more in terms of acquiring belts, and becoming undisputed at 140 'But Spence Junior has beaten better fighters at 147, Porter, near enough peak Brook, and now he is going up against Danny Garcia etc'.

Terrence doesn't deserve an even split.

It'll be empty seats during the pandemic. ... that's why whatever they say now doesn't count much...

Yet somehow Spence is the one Ducking? He the one saying "No Fight" "I Don't Need The Spence Fight" "I'm Ok With The Fight Never Happening" while Spence was just Answering Mike Coppinger question but then Spence also said they would all have to sit down and negotiate

Notice how Bud touched on the belt issue, but not the draw issue lol. And asses in seats is what matters most lets be real. Who gives a sh^t about rich guy woes doe. Bud is making millions per fight now fighting fights no one cares about. Him making $20M instead of $30M for a fight is his problem not mine & he'll have to be the one who decides if that extra $10M or whatever on top of a career high payday is worth holding his ground eventually not me. It'll be empty seats during the pandemic.

No doubt. Bud vs Danny might be the 2021 fight to make this time next month. Indeed. There are a lot of questions going into the Spence/Danny fight that should be answered that night. Even a healthy Spence, Garcia would had been a live dog. Boxing is the theater of the unknown.

I don't typically care about other people's money but that seems fair. Either do I. I hate the politics stuff, I just want the fight. And there’s no proof that even if bud went to PBC he wouldn’t have to fight guys like Garcia and Porter first.
