If the link isn't timestapped correctly, go to the 8 minute mark where he addresses the potential Crawford fight.
Porter said he's worth a lot more than 1M and that is basically disrespectful for him to get offered that. Porter also added he told his dad to call Haymon and tell him he only wants Spence/Crawford/Pacquiao.
It was brought up that Brook made more than a million against Crawford and he made WAY more to fight Spence.
"If the money is right, I will 10000% fight Crawford next year and I want the fight."
So go to purse bid, you have Haymon and his money. Get the fight to purse bid, which would mean you make more than 1m and you would have the fight on your PBC side.
Shawn probably got more than 1 million to fight formella lol...if Shawn activates arum will let it go to purse bid, and anyone who follow boxing knows that top rank rarely wins purse bid...bud will prefer to keep the split 75 percent bc he’s a clown lol and porter obviously would prefer to negotiate bc he genuinely wants the fight but at 25 percent that’s pretty ridiculous...so the fans get screwed outta fight bc bud wants 50/50 purse splits fights with Errol and pac and doesn’t think guys like porter is worth his time...BUT AMIR KHAN AND JOSE 1 LEG BENAVIDEZ IS COOL
To be fair, Crawford never said anything about Porter getting 1M. I think Arum said Porter isn't a big name and that's not a big fight so 1M is fair. Porter, later on his podcast said if this is how negotiations will go, then he will just turn his attention to a Spence rematch since he knows he will be treated much better for that fight and that he made MUCH more than 1M against Spence the first time.
I mean Arum also has said that if Crawford wants to leave before his deal is up, then he is willing to grant his wishes with a buyout. So if Crawford isn't pleased with Arum, he can always leave. Tell Haymon if he wants him, then go buy him out of TR's deal like he did with Andy Ruiz.
Top contender to a belt his own boss and fanbase refuses to recognise? What's the point?
And what is this lowball talk when there is a standard percentage split on mandatory defences?
By all me red k me again if it makes you feel all manly. Lol. But try to explain why Porter would want a title that turns him invisible to his own cult leader.
I dont think Ive ever red K anyone .

Dude- this would be all good and well if Arum had a couple of other welterweight marque fighters to offer Crawford but he has NONE. There is literally no one for Crawford to fight at Toprank at welterweight, they have run out of all possible opponents. So technically, ARUM/Crawford are desperate for a fight.
Question- do you think that it’s fair that they offered Amir 5mil (supposedly) and they trying to lowball Porter with 1 mil? I promise you porter is more famous in the US than Khan and is more relevant and respected even.
Times have changed. Crawford is costing Bob money apparently, it's what he can afford. It's more than he would get if they went through the sanctioning bodies mando standard % split.
Porter ain't no superstar. He ain't worth 5. Does he want the fight or not.
Because thats what top contenders do, it only changes when they are on top.

Yeah but PBC dont recognise that title. Is Porter sure he wants to be left off the lists of 147 champs on Fox sports or PBC content?
And maybe Porter and the PBC should make Crawford an offer if they want the fight so bad.
Also if it is a mando Arum and Crawford dont have to offer Porter Jack shyte. There is a standard percentage split for the challenger in a mandatory defence so Mr Porter would be receiving that. No lowball, standard price.

Why is Porter so eager to fight Bud and why is he so eager to be expecting Arum to pay him to do it?
Because thats what top contenders do, it only changes when they are on top.
Because he is the mandatory and Crawford needs a proper fight next. Arum needs Porter more than the other way around.
