    I think Crawford will definitely fight under the PBC banner in 2022. He isn’t Canelo, he can’t demand those sort of conditions. Even Pac signed a three fight deal. I think it’ll be similar to that.
    Oh yeah, I think he does fight a PBC fighter next, whether it be Thurman or Spence or Ugas. Ideally the winner of Spence/Ugas vs Crawford should happen next. But if Thurman beats Barrios? Then that's an option as it will do good numbers and then the winners can face off later in the year.

      It’s pretty much the only place he can go. He obviously won’t go back to Bob now and DAZN have pretty much only one realistic option in Vergil Ortiz.

        Be careful what you wish for. It's a ridiculous lawsuit and it will hurt Crawford more than Arum. It would fail miserably. Spotlight would eventually laser-focused on Mr Bud and he will have to answer questions he will be unable to answer.

        This is clearly influenced by some LDBC folks, whatever you call them, who see everything in racial-tinted glasses. In any contact sport, it's the fighter himself that does the majority of promoting. Some are just entertaining to watch and very little promotion is needed. Not to mention Crawford is the most fully compensated fighter at TR. He made his first $1 million paycheck long before guys like Thurman, Garcia, Porter, Spence, etc., fighting the likes of Gamboa, Derry Jean, Lundy, Molina, Diaz, etc. Lomachenko in comparison made his after almost 10 fights. So...

            WOW! Not surprised though, Bob has said some things publicly about Bud that has effected his career for sure. Glad that relationship is officially over, I was a bit nervous that Bud might go back but that is not happening now clearly which is a good thing because he shouldn't after WTF was said about him over the last few years

                Terrance Crawford a petty woke leach looking for a payday,say it ain't so.

                remember when Bud for years agreed with every word Bob said about Pbc & Al Haymon? me too

                Remember when Bud Crawford told Bob Arum he was unhappy at Top Rank? me neither

                  It's his own fault. He chose to be in the Arum witness protection program fighting bs mandatories. It's what he wanted. Now he's crying about it? FOH CRAWFORD!!!!

                    Arum has won many many lawsuits and has received many. This seems like it will be another one.

                      Christ almighty. Im not even saying Crawford is wrong in what he says, it's not the 1st time I've seen Arum called a racist. Although he's not done too badly at Top Rank and Bob has done good for African American Boxers before.

                      But either way there is no chance of him or any lawyers being able to prove any of this. I don't know which idiots are advising him to go this route but I can only imagine this costing Bud a whack of money and the whole thing being thrown out and laughed off before it gets anywhere near a court room.
