Crawford Leaving Top Rank!!!

I leaning towards Bud too but I am rolling with the Yardies here. Will be rooting for them and I'll bet you that ESJ will win. I definitely know what time it is. Black, Green, and Gold time! I respect your honesty my boy. Errol's punch is a concern, namely his attack to the body ; I worry that he could break 'Bud' down by the championship rounds. But back to the banter :lol1:

Arum doesn't want Crawford to stay at all. He's dismissive of him, and fair enough. Arum's energy is saying good riddance. I can respect that. Arum doesn't know how to promote elite African American boxers. Forget about Spence, how about a Crawford-Davis on Showtime? Gervonta, after sparring Porter, likes his chances at 147. Davis-Crawford would be two of the best African American fighters in all boxing. Davis would be a PBC's lure for Crawford at PBC, not Spence. Elite vs Elite. Id dig that. Would love to see Davis stopped.

Crawford won't sign with PBC. Why would he? Pacquiao retired, Porter retired, Thurman doesn't fight. For Spence and Ugas? Nah. Did Spence and Ugas sign with Top Rank to fight Crawford? Nope. Crawford will do the Canelo thing. See who offers him what on a fight by fight basis. This is what he should do. Great post. If Spence continues to give more bs excuses to not fight Bud maybe his fanboys will understand he really is a duck

Lets not extend or draw this out, you know what time it is, I got TBC, BET. Say less. I leaning towards Bud too but I am rolling with the Yardies here. Will be rooting for them and I'll bet you that ESJ will win. I definitely know what time it is. Black, Green, and Gold time!

as much as I hate Arum, I will say that he has saved Crawfor'd's career. I said this years ago on another site. Crawford has been in as much controvery away from the ring as Broner, but he's not foolishly promoting himself as much on social media. That's why his problems fly under the radar. Getting shot after dice game, breaking up fight of his sister at local store that was caught on camera, fight with mechanic... These things may not be major, but a lot of people don't know about it because Bob Arum has a way of masking these things. HOw many Top Rank fighters are seen as trouble makers even when they are in trouble. That ESPN machine works.. Bob has done a horrible job at making him a superstar, but he's protected him well with the ESPN network.. I'll give him that much credit. The truth is, Broner and Crawford are probably similar outside of the ring, but one just broadcasts his exploits(Broner

Why is it bad news for us? Lets not extend or draw this out, you know what time it is, I got TBC, BET. Say less.

Let's have Davis-Crawford at 147. No belts. Please.

crawford hung around fighting bums for 5 years and now that pac is retired and spence is broken he finally leaves top rank. lmao crawford should be able to beat a broken spence

Hell f-cking yeah!! 1hourRun , make a gif of old salty Bob from that vid. Slave driver Your table has turned Catch a fire Your gonna get burned Slave driver Your table has turned Catch a fire Your gonna get burned https://i.imgur.com/PXqgBEP.gif Well OK, but this is bad news for you and Errol Spence jr. , my boy.

Crawford could close out his career with fights against Ugas, Spence, 154 Charlo and whoever else is around those divisions over the next few years at PBC.. He should 100% jump ship to that side

It's a little too late. His best years are behind him and Spence doesn't look the same after his accident. He should've left years ago instead of signing a new contract with Arum.

If Bud does go work with Al which is a no brainer. I see him unifying with Ugas (hard fight for anyone, but let’s assume he wins) while Spence gets a comeback fight against a decent name early next year. Then that sets up the mega fight of Spence VS Crawford for all of the belts in June 2022, fight would sell like crazy.

PBC is no better than TR. Too many in house fights. Just look at Tank. Crawford hasn’t got time for that BS But all the best fights basically would be in house with PBC. :dunno:

It would make sense but Schaefer¶bellum might offer him big money. Donaire is with them and is headlining a PBC card.

Keith has always done good ratings and he’s the kind of name that Crawford wants on his resume. Thurman is long in the tooth and should be a relative easy W as well on paper. Crawford-Thurman is a no brainer for all parties. Spence-Crawford is the megafihjt but I bet some extensive negotiations are gonna he required to her that done. It ain’t gonna be next. They'll probably make Crawford/Thurman a PPV fight, so ratings won't come into play. Crawford is going to wreck Thurman's body.

Even if he signs with PBC would he even get Spence? Jusy like Bob has his favorites in Valdez over Shakur, Al would prefer the bigger PPV guy in Spence.

Nice match up. Bud would have a reach advantage on Floyd which only happened once or twice in Floyd's career. But it's hard to bet against Money.

One thing I love about boxing is if you don't rush to judgment and wait for the facts the come out, the truth will always come to light. Terence Crawford was never a ducker and always wanted all the smoke. Shame on everyone who called him a duck. You have some serious soul searching to do but can still ask god to forgive you. Much respect to Porter for crossing the street to make the best fights happen. The street is not an excuse, if a fighter wants a fight they can make it happen.
