The purse bid for the mandatory bout between WBO Welterweight Champion Terence Crawford and challenger Shawn Porter has been moved to September 14th, following a request from the promoters of both fighters, Top Rank (Crawford) and Tom Brown’s TGB Promotions (Porter).
Both companies requested additional time to continue ongoing negotiations.
The purse bid was originally scheduled for Thursday, September 2nd at 9:00 am EST at the WBO main offices in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Was looking forward to the purse bid but I guess good news that the two companies are trying to work out a deal.
Terrance must’ve finally talked to Bob and realized “yo I’m only making what”. Bob was like “um you owe so we just gonna take it outta this purse”.
Lol.
Just probably trying to work out a joint PPV and see if it is possible to air the fight that way. Maybe Arum wants to just be responsible for Crawford's purse and PBC for Porter's, who knows.
Just make the fight happen.
