Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford Sues Top Rank For Breach of Contract, Claims Racial Bias

[Sctrojan]

What an idiotic move on his part. No matter your PERSONAL feelings about your promoter,boss,supervisor etc...you don't burn any bridges. Haymon/PBC and Hearn/Dazn already said they weren't interested in your services and we now know for damn sure TR is no longer either. No promotional company is going to pay him anywhere near what he had been asking for him to just come in and knock off one of thier fighters. Nor are they going to commit long term,for the amount he wants, knowing he's 35/36yrs old and not a PPV draw....

He’s a 100yr old white guy ofc he’s racist lol

[TreyShaw]

Wow what a dumb ass move by Bud guy seems to be crying racism left and right yet he's the one being racist towards guys like canelo.

What an ignorant dumb pos Crawford has become screw him.

I doubt it stands up in court, but we can agree Bob blasting Crawford while he was signed to his promotional company was plain ******. I can't recall the last time I have seen anything like that.

And no, I don't see Crawford signing with the PBC. He has a deal with MTK Global and will just sign on a fight by fight basis the rest of his career.

Rigondeaux, he sabotaged him after the Donaire win. But he did an amazing job with Crawford.

[Cypocryphy]

how is that even racist?

It's not racist, but it is a form of slander that hurts his marketability. So if Crawford can show that such comments reduced his marketability and, therefore, his ability to profit in his career, then he MIGHT have a claim that he can recover some amount of damages. I'm just speculating, but that is probably his strongest claim. We will see.

But yes, that's not related to racism; it's related to Crawford's "business," which is himself.

[SimpleTouchee]

Oh what bullsht

He had no issues consistently resigning with top rank. Now it’s systemic racism.
fck that overused word

Arum kept selling Crawford dreams about making the Pacquiao fight that never happened.

[Boxing Goat]

LMAO!!!! Seriously? Did not make him into a star? Crawford could never be a star even if he was floating in space.... Hey Crawford, maybe if you would only take risk once in a while you would actually get to you want to be. And let's keep it real, maybe Crawford should be suing his fat manager.... He's the guy who's actually guiding your career and making decisions on who you fight, Bobby as the promoters, can only bring the options to you, it's up to you and your manager to decide who you're fighting, what a joke....

L M M F A O @ that one Well Done

[SimpleTouchee]

It's a business, all Bob sees is green. If we use your example and apply it to other promoters that makes every promoter racist..

But two close Ls shouldn't get you released from your contact

[dorruel2.0]

I hope Arum counters with defamation of character and takes a good chunk of his next purse.

another case of get woke go broke

[Manic Shot]

It’s strange that he asked $10M to fight Manny, now he’s asking $10M lawsuit agaisnt Bob
