Breaking: Terence Crawford will fight 140lber Jose Zepeda in October.

[Combat Talk Radio]

haha idk every ****ing list you post man. I don't know any top fighter that was trying to make a deal with TR for Crawford. There were some rumors of guys pricing themselves out. Not even in public forums is anybody calling for Crawford.

They can't get to the point of dealing with Top Rank when Crawford shoots them down and doesn't let them come to the table.

The only one who got close, Arum publicly lowballed him.

• 126 lb Mr. Gary Russell Jr. (champion)
• 140 lb Josh Taylor (champion)
• 140 lb Regis Prograis (former champion)
• 147 lb - but should be 140 lb - Mikey Garcia (former champion)
• 147 lb Vergil Ortiz (champion)
• 147 lb Keef Thurman (former champion)
• 147 lb Errol Spence (champion)
• 147 lb Blair Cobbs
• 154 lb Jermell Charlo (champion)

Disgraceful choice by a disgraced fighter.

[MikeyMike100]

When Top Rank has the A-side they do the exact same thing. This whole situation is exposing that Arum does not want to play by the same rules that he has always imposed on others.

Ya but top rank has been more willing to do Co promotions like with Jose Ramirez vs Maurice Hooker. That's a fair point though.

[The3]

Oh well Top Rank to paying big money for Vergil, Porter or Thurman for a guy that leaving the company

[-Kev-]

Manny made a WW career of fighting 140lb guys.

I don't know but if you ask me Arum has stifled Crawfords career, maybe because he got away with so much stuff with Manny bob thinks he can do it with TC, he needs to figure TC doesn't have Mannys appeal its not going to work for Crawford.

Who says they have to make it to the cards?

Humberto Soto vs. Francisco Lorenzo 1.

There's ALWAYS a way.

and Crawford can get a bit rough/dirty in the ring. He'd need to be careful.

Finally, someone who gets it.

All it takes is Crawford holding and hitting like he did with Kavaliauskas or a low blow like he did on Khan, with the wrong ref... DQ LOSS!.... and NSB shuts down for 3 hours due people screaming robbery.

Not going to lie, I wouldn't mind Crawford being robbed. Would serve the cherry picking hype job right

so which of those guys wanted him now again, instead of Zepeda? Taylor wants him after his mandatory and that's an easy fight to make, it's not a fight that's been denied to Taylor. Prograis hasn't called out Crawford for a fight, didn't he in fact just say he's sticking at 140lb for now? Ortiz ain't ready and GB never made any real offer, just noise. Thurman don't want any smoke, why did you even list him or Errol Spence? Spence been ducking for years. And Charlo called out Crawford? News to me.

So basically, you've completely ignored all of the interviews those guys cut over the past year and even now, didn't bother to research.

We're done here. You're too far in the Bud Bag to be reasonable.
