First Crawford shows the type of racist he is stating Canelo isn't fighting Black guys
And now Crawford is trying to say even a 50-50 split with Spence he won't accept, and his reasoning, "because he already unified at 140 so he don't need to do it again"
Then he mentions going after Ugas over Porter since Ugas has a belt(yet in that very same interview he just said he didn't need to unify?). Does wanting Ugas instead of Porter mean Crawford is also "shying" away from "Black" guys?
Terence Crawford says he’s not sure that he would agree to a fight with Errol Spence now even if he were offered a 50-50 purse split.
Crawford (37-0, 28 KOs) maintains that he no longer cares about unifying the 147-lb division because he already did that at 140 back in 2018. It’s not a big deal for the WBO champion Crawford to try and do that at welterweight.
Crawford insists that he’s “past that” now because Errol (27-0, 21 KOs) tried calling the shots, and he doesn’t go for that.
“I don’t know, to be honest, because I’m past that,” said Terence Crawford to the AK & Barak Show to DAZN when asked if he would fight Errol Spence if he were offered a 50-50 split.
“I don’t even care about all those titles. I’ve already been undisputed. He’s trying to do something I already accomplished in my career. Once I moved up, I get a belt in my first fight at welterweight.
‘Ugas because he’s got something to offer,” said Crawford when asked if he’d rather fight WBA welterweight champion Yordenis Ugas or Shawn Porter.
“Why would I choose Shawn Porter with nothing to gain when I can choose Ugas. I’m fighting for something.
Lol every little word by Crawford is dissected and twisted up and chewed over and it all goes towards blaming him for the Spence fight not happening.
Meanwhile Spence refuses to fight u til Bud got a belt, then it was leave Top Rank, then it was he's at the back of the queue, then it was who is Crawford, then it was why fight Crawford when I can take the easy route, then it was I dont know why he is at my fights, then it was 30%, then it was 20%.
But the dissection brigade don't wana run through any of that with a fine tooth comb. It is so damn obvious Spence don't want it or atleast not until he's run out of other options.
Rumour I heard was Porter and both Mikey and Danny got a 50% split. But drunkard Spence talks 30 or 20 for Bud?
Bud hasn't said he doesn't want to unify at all he just said he doesn't NEED to unify with Spence cuz he is sick of Spence and his road blocking and ducking. Bud made it clear he wanted to face Spence since before he even came to 147 but he can see Spence wants anything but to unify with Crawford so Bud has washed his hands of it.
I wouldn't be surprised if his next fight announcement will be against oscar lol
Lmao beyond sad if that's happenin. CrawTards would justify another GarbageAss matchup 24/7 !
Man's lame craving the spotlight & believing he's a bigger than he really is.Boring + overrated fighter.Moves less PPV compared to Golovkin. Which is sad

I ain't got no problems if he took the same money for easier fights, but just don't go about yourself like you the man
im with you.....
bud exposed himself after the mean machine fight...when weeks after kenny porter said "call us", he said "thats not on my radar" on camera...this after arum was saying "were looking at porter next" for weeks leading up to that fight......bud knows how this is all going to work and he enjoyed people believing the pbc was ducking him and all of that....because him and arum didnt think pbc guys would even respond...then kenny porter said "call us we can make that fight" and bud was like "oh damn he wouldnt say that without haymons blessing".....his card got pulled...as long as the pbc doesnt answer back or acknowledge him he loved the myth being perpetuated....the reality is arum doesnt wanna pony up the pbc guys at their market rate to have them come to espn...hell only fugg with pbc if its a big money ppv fight......bud knows it all but loves playing the role
if you were crawford....and u knew you were on a road to meet spence but knew you likely had to wait.....would you a. go over to the other side with tougher/more interesting fights? b. stay where you are get paid to fight lesser guys and be able to tell everyone youre being avoided/ducked?...all while making about the same money...maybe a little more
I ain't got no problems if he took the same money for easier fights, but just don't go about yourself like you the man
bud is all over the place no suprise....hes started believing his own press clippings and feeling himself off the money and headlining and p4p status...hes a very good fighter and i like him.....but he re-signed knowing all the big fights were over on the other side and he wouldnt be getting them till spence was ready and had exhaused all inhouse options...he knows the business and knew how this would play out and he was ok with it....if he had left TR to go over with al he'd be making the same money and be on a collision course with spence(i still think in reality he is...hes just getting less interesting fights while he waits).....he chose this life....but the reality is, imo, he enjoys playing the "ducked" game
so by his logic, he too is ducking black fighters as well then seeing as how there are plenty of black fighters on the other side yet decided to stay with his uncle bob
He said that Canelo is ducking Andrade and Charlo, which is a fact. Andrade and Charlo both happen to be black, which is also a fact. So it was wrong that Canelo is ducking other black fighters, but not wrong that he's ducking Andrade or Charlo. But f*** that, I know Bud aint racist, he has a very diverse corner, two co trainers, one black one latino, a white conditioning coach. He treats his fans very well from all walks of life, black, brown, white, asian, latino, Chinese, you name it he's good to everyone.
So you say he said that Canelo is ducking Andrade and Charlo, yet the first thing he mentions is black fighters which is a fact. If he ain't a racist he wouldn't have brought up the race card, but he did. He easily could've said Andrade and Charlo, yet he still threw in the race card, which is a fact.
You answered the race issue, but yet you still didn't answer him stating belts are useless and then quickly saying he wanted Ugas for, his belt.

It's been a F^cking PR disasters actually! What if Big Time Investors like a Triller or somebody is interested in putting up huge Money for Spence vs Crawford but yet he is running around saying "That Ship Has Sailed That Fight Is Never Happening". Then the Canelo thing, regardless if he is right or wrong, based on his own short comings resume wise, he should be the last one commenting on Who other fighters should be fighting honestly
No this is not "HATING Crawford" or any of that sh^t I just think he is AWFUL when it comes to Press all together and that does indeed hold you back from becoming a bigger Draw. You can't be Stand-offish with Boxing Press, Main Stream Media AND Fans and also hold grudge towards media guys who favor Spence over you and yet expect people to support you

It just sucks. It's times like these we wish everyone was under 1 roof chasing after 1 guy with 1 belt. None of this, I'll face this guy or that guy because I feel this is better or worse. It's horrible for the fans.
You're right. If there was only one belt then these guys would HAVE to fight each other for it.

Well I'm not hating on Bud or talking **** about him. Can't speak for that other comment.
But I'm just stating the obvious. Did he not show racism with his Canelo comment?
And did he not say he won't take 50/50 with Spence?
Can't say it's hating when we're taking what he's giving us.
I mean he literally said "“I don’t even care about all those titles" and the very next thing he says after is “Why would I choose Shawn Porter with nothing to gain when I can choose Ugas. I’m fighting for something." Reminds of me Rick James in that Chapelle skit.
By Bud's own logic, is he shying from black fighters since he wants Ugas instead of Porter?

This hate for Terence Crawford is just more of the same bull****. Terence Crawford is a very upstanding man. Everyone complained about Floyd for so long, I thought Terence Crawford was exactly what you wanted Floyd to be and you still talk **** about him.
