I used to try to defend Crawford, but he's really a disgrace at this point.

Bob has just been confirming the last few days of everything most suspected. Again, it is what it is.
People just need to stop pretending what the truth is. This isn't about the man getting ducked, his promoter isn't confident in Crawford selling on PPV. Any fight where he risks losing his own money, he's just not going to do it.

Pacquiao fight fell through because Crawford wanted another opponent.Okay, I made a similar post in the other thread, but how is it possible that the only way he could get the Pacquiao fight was in Dubai or somewhere in the Middle East when Spence was able to get it in Vegas? Why couldn't TR just make the fight in Vegas? Then you have Team Porter going DIRECTLY to TR's offices and meeting with Arum personally asking for the fight and Arum flat out tells Kenny Porter he will not make an offer and they never reach out back to Team Porter. The reasoning? "Not enough money for the fight and it is a Vegas or NY fight, not a Texas or Florida fight." That is what a TR executive actually said. Well, where is Spence/Pacquiao taking place? Why can't they just make Crawford/Porter in Vegas like Fury/Wilder III and Pacquiao/Spence? The new reasoning for why the fight is not happening is according to Bruce Trampler, the two fighters are "unfortunately too friendly" LOL. While all this time you have Kenny Porter going around doing interviews telling people they have been waiting long enough for the fight but it is time to move on and it is clear Crawford's side doesn't want the fight. How does any of this make any sense? Of course you will have those saying Porter should have activated the mandatory ignoring everything else that has been going on and the reasoning TR gives for why fights can't happen. Oh yeah, you have Crawford's trainer McIntyre going on podcasts telling people that the likes of Thurman/DSG/Porter want the fight, but there just isn't enough money out there. WHEN THE HELL WILL THERE BE ENOUGH MONEY OUT THERE??? How much longer can they just go with that? Spence is legitimately going Mikey/Porter/DSG/Pacquiao back to back to back to back, while Crawford can't get ANY of those fighters. Now, could it be that maybe Crawford is just pricing himself out? Is TR being too cheap? This reminds me of how GRJ calls everyone out yet never gets any of the big names. Is it just a coincidence or is the fighter himself to blame here?
here’s his opponent announcing the contract has been signed and they will fight in August
