Damn,Crawford got these PBC boys shook....

Pretty sure Porter made more against Crawford than he did against Spence....

Don't know why he's still talking about Bob Arum.
Crawford is a free agent now. PBC guys need to stop this "wrong side of the street" excuse.

To me Crawford is the more attractive fight from a fan perspective.
He got a close fight with Manny Pacquiao and it was entertaining.

I think he meant ‘easier’

If money is the issue, why hasn’t since vs Crawford happened then? It’s the biggest potential money making fight at 147 and has been for about 3 yrs now.

Thurman "a big draw"....since when? He did good network ratings I suppose but you can throw any Tom,Dyck and Harry on network TV and get good ratings. He's been out of the ring for 3yrs,is coming off a loss so what relevance he had is long gone. His ppv against Barrios will bomb and a ppv with Crawford does about the same as Crawford vs Porter,maybe less. Crawford fighting Thurman at this point is just another roadblock for the fight that needs to happen after Ugas...and that's Spence vs Crawford,fuch anything else.

Keith has always been a big draw. His gates he did vs Porter and Garcia were great. He did a higher gate vs Garcia than Crawford has ever done in his career. Keith did 500k buys vs Pacquiao while Pacman didn't do even close to that amount vs Broner or Ugas.

Even Crawford said Thurman is the biggest fight for him minus Spence. Said before the Porter fight that Thurman is a way bigger fight than the Porter one.

I mean I'm with Crawford vs Spence/Ugas winner. That's what I prefer, but I said IF Crawford wants one more fight before the undisputed showdown, then Thurman makes sense.

And yes, Keith can definitely struggle vs Barrios. Never said otherwise.

Thurman mentioned Arum because Crawford was still with TR when he got offered that fight.

Thurman vs Spence or Crawford does more! Thurman might have fell off but if you match him with the right name it will do numbers. Vs Spence even more since they have history.

UD by Spence, stopped by Crawford

Riight. Those media people, or may be appropriately called youtubers, are not quick to add follow up questions.
They're wasting time. We're, for example, supposed to talk about going from there. Like DAZN might have the answer
for a neutral ground for the fight to materialize. Arum should be old news. People are not interested in that.
