Bob Arum Again Planning For Pacquiao Negotiation Failure: Crawford's "Plan B" Opponents Revealed
Arum’s back-up options for Crawford:
Arum obviously isn’t eager to let Crawford fight former IBF welterweight champion Porter because it’s a terrible match-up.
Also, it’s a fight that would cost Arum a pretty penny to make because Porter will want similar money that he got for his match against Errol Spence Jr in 2019.
Mostly, Arum will likely hesitate to make this fight for Crawford because Porter is a threat to beating him. All that hard work that Arum has put in over the years with his careful match-making of Crawford will have gone down the drain if he loses to Porter.
- Shawn Porter
- Keith ‘One Time’ Thurman
- Josesito Lopez
- Jessie Vargas
- Danny Garcia
- Vergil Ortiz Jr

We already confirmed it isn't Keef.
Danny Swift is highly unlikely since as I reported, he's wanting to move up and Crawford isn't.
Crawford openly ducked Vergil Ortiz Jr.
That leaves Josesito or Jessie Vargas.
Josesito is fresh off a knockout win in December while Jessie Vargas damn near beat Mikey Garcia. So both guys are fresh off wins, not losses. But neither guy is A-level.
What say ye? Which of these guys gets the shot?
