Comments Thread For: Hearn Open To Sign Crawford: "But We'd Struggle To Deliver Purses Terence Would Want Unless He Were Sensible"

[Boxing fan1981]

Nooo! Don’t do it Hearn. The man is drama and if you don’t deliver his 6 million per fight and deliver Spence he’ll sue you for racism.

Let him retire. No one pays to see him fight anyway.

Whispering Bud is a very good fighter but has never had a clue how to sell himself like a Leonard or the like. He's never cornered Spence for a match up and seemed quite happy to go separate ways .Earned $20 m in three years against mediocre opposition and complains .

Hard for Crawford . If he signs with PBC their fighters will still refuse to fight him. First the other fence excuse now he demands to much money all the pbc will follow that script

[Monty Fisto]

If Crawford is confident in his own abilities, he shouldn't tie himself to an exclusive deal with anyone.

Mayweather is also interested in working with Crawford! That just makes too much sense! PBC dominates 147 and 154! Bud signing with Haymon also makes too much sense! I don't know what Bud is looking for? If you know where the competition is, yet you don't want to go there, then I have to conclude that "you don't want no smoke!"

Crawford does need to be realistic with his purse expectations. He’s been wrapped in cotton wool at espn. They over paid him several times.

however, this wouldn’t be the right fit for Terrence. DAZN can’t even get they’re own guys the big fights.

done nothing for haney and Hearn himself has let everyone of his US Fighters down. Only Jacobs got a Canelo payday and that’s it.

that’s The American fans fault thought apparently, nothing to do with himself doing a bad job over there.

Totally agree with you!

Crawford has been his own worst enemy, he has settled for mediocrity, time is rapidly running out for him.


Spense must like the idea that if they don't fight, Crawford comes out of it in a bad way.

PBC don’t want him. One of their top execs went on record re: Spence vs Crawford “Why should we have to pay for it?” Bottom line, these guys want more than they are worth. Crawford thinks talent alone generates dollars.

Eddie Hearn is making a lot of sense here. It's not financially viable at this point for Matchroom to sign Terence Crawford because they neither have the roster or stable of fighters to match up with him. The place for him to be is the PBC since they hold all the cards at welterweight.

Bud should fire his management team also for giving him bad career advice. Now every promotional entity is going to be very reluctant in signing him since Bob Arum falsely claimed that he has lost a lot of money on his fights.

[DaNeutral.]

Bob the crispy woman hating racist gambled on Crawford to break out in to superstardom and it didn't happen but that massive contract now has Bud thinking that is the kind of money he deserves when it really isn't.

Same problem with all these mental overpriced PBC PPV's. These fighters once got a great purse and now they demand it so only options are to tell these Boxers to get a reality check or rip the customers off to try give them what they want.

Then you got fighters like Tyson Wild Boar Fury and his gimpy fans bragging about his Wilder numbers like that's his usual numbers when every fight he's had since the Wlad win that doesn't include Wilder had been a bit of a dud.

There's differences between what you get paid to what you actually pull in and you also have a difference between what 2 fighters pull and what they could pull if they fought each other.

But these fighter's get one big one or get one big pay day and then pin that as their actual fight to fight worth when it really isn't.
