Report: Crawford expected to sign with PBC

[SweetPbfAli]

Yes they will. I expect a Crawford/ugas fight while Spence fights an optional or the IBF mando, maybe Boots, assuming he beats Manny.

You think Spence fights Boots before he absolutely has to? I don't think any of these guys fear each other like some people on here but I just don't see that being a realistic fight. Spence will likely go to 154 before that fight is likely.

Wow, after wasting his prime with Top...he can go on a legend's tour like Pac I guess

[NC Uppercut]

About time. They will have him fight Ugas or something first though watch before he fight Spence

I figure it’ll be Keith Thurman he will fight after Shawn, then Errol, if Errol is still at 147

[just the facts]

Are we still going to criticize Crawford when this happens?

The only way this happens is with the understanding that Crawford has to fight better competition. So no.

Sheesh Rigo Canelo Crawford Pacquiao all fighting on PBC.. This is what a real take over looks like. PBC created in 2015 and all the detractors swore they wouldn’t last. 6 yrs later here they are putting on some of the best fights. Top Rank isn’t doing that bad either. Boxing is alive and well.

I thought Crawford wasn’t a star and isn’t very good.

When is he legally allowed to part ways with Arum?

This should be welcome news for fans as they're sick of the "different side of the street" excuses.

Andrade, Haney, Golovkiin, and many others might as well join PBC. We'll finally see who's really ducking.

Rigo's pro career only started taking off when he was already 32. As long as Bud doesn't make any irrational decisions like moving up two weight classes, Bud could really dominate the welterweight division for like 10-15 more fights.

That made me think..he would probably beat Floyd's undefeated record at the current trajectory...ofcourse assuming he stays at welterweight till his retirement..although he would still beat the champions at 154, he would take more damage...especially at 160..

lmfao based on what??? His current trajectory of fighting C level competition?? LMAO. At least floyd actually fought elite opponents.

Crawfords entire career is based off of "Fantasy Matchups"

[PunchMeIDareYou]

At this point who really gives a flying **** what Crawfish does the remainder of his pathetic overhyped/overrated 'career'.

[-Kev-]

He is getting up there in age but better late than never. Closer to 35 than he is to 25. I think he wasted his prime in TR fighting mediocre opponents. I think boxing fans spoke out on what they think of Crawford with the Khan PPV numbers. It was a resounding “You suck, step it up.” Canelo sold 600k PPV’s in his mismatch vs Khan. But that’s because Canelo is liked due to taking on everyone that matters.

Crawford will be 34 years old by his next fight. He might as well cash out and fight the best.
