    I appreciate Crawford's no bs mentality. No circus act reality TV bs with that guy, he's an all business assassin in there. my only concern with him is his age, I'm afraid that he's pretty much over the hill by now or by the fight after Porter. It would be a shame if he clearly slowed down before we saw him in there with Errol Spence, who himself might be done too, and others at welterweight and super welterweight. The way his career has been managed is a travesty.

      Yeah, but Spence is more attention-getting than Bud definitely.

        So this narrative that all people care about is what goes on in the ring was debunked by Arum himself.

        You need personality and character. Period. You are the minority. Stay in your bubble and watch your guy continue to suck at the gate because you aren't pushing him to do his job OUTSIDE the ring.
        I mean that's the thing,
        hardcore Boxing fans are definitely the minority.
        I can care less about the business aspect but even me, who can care less about that stuff, understand that fighters have to be attention-getting in their approach and personality.

          They want characters.

          We've seen it time and again.

          Ali didn't get over with casuals because of the boring ass clinchfest that was Rumble in the Jungle.

          He got over because of his mouth.
          Facts, Ali was one of the best, or the best to do it

            Concerning Bud over the hill I agree.
            I been saying for a while (on my You Tube channel) that I definitely can see Bud retiring soon, maybe two more fights and he's gone.
            And I doubt he fights Spence. He has said several times that Spence is past him.

              It’s not a big deal. I’m just interested in who the better fighter is and you like the cheerleader/WWF angle.
              You're interested in who the better fighter is, huh?


              You don't apply that same science to every fighter.

              That's what you're not getting. Your bias is clear. You like this ONE guy.


              Spoiler:

              You are not who the promoters want at the shows, because they know you'll eat whatever crap they hand you anyway.


              They want new money. At some point, you'll have to wrap your head around this truth.


              There's a very important reason that TILL THIS DAY!!...Conor McGregor draws more money than anyone in UFC combined, despite losses and barely fighting. And it ain't his F'n matches.

                Facts, I actually suspected dude as a Bud man fan. LOL.
                All good though. But what you are saying is facts man regarding the sport.

                  I think you’re confusing me with someone else. I’m no Crawford fan but I accept the fact that he’s clearly a superior fighter.

                  What’s with your weird negative obsession with Crawford anyway?
