Comments Thread For: Crawford To Spence: Keep My Belts Warm, I'll Be Coming To Grab 'Em Later This Year

Even though this is the fight that SHOULD happen next, I won’t believe it until I see them both in the ring. I think Crawford is going to demand 50/50 and I don’t think Spence is gonna agree to that. Spence will claim the “A” side because he has 3 belts blah blah blah….a lot of the usual BS which could prevent this from happening and most always comes down to money. I think 60/40 in favor of Spence should get this fight done, but we will see….however if the fight does happen, I got Crawford on points.

Will TBC become 2X Undisputed 3X lineal champion and P4P #1. at the same time?! Where does Terence Crawford rank on the ATG list after he whoops Errol Spence ass?

He can finally be in all time top 100 after beat Spence.

I don't know if the build up to this fight was intentional, but it feels like a BIG deal now. It always has had its intrigue because it's arguably the two best men in the division. But the fact that both men have racked up significant wins in the last couple years and the fact that it's going to be for the Undisputed Crown makes the allure of this fight even bigger. It's not MayPac level but when we finally see Spence and Crawford standing across from each other in the same ring, it's gonna be f'n exciting. May the best man win and hopefully they get paid handsomely.

I think this fight will happen next, there is nowhere else for these guys to go.

No other opponents for them to face. This is the final boss stage now, and they must face off etc.

This will possibly be America's biggest all american boxing fight since? Oscar De La Hoya vs Floyd Mayweather Junior, Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield I & II etc

Definitely the most important boxing match involving 2 american top boxers in recent times

Yes it is the biggest since De La Hoya vs Mayweather.

All American big fight. I wonder where it will be staged.

It is a bigger fight than Mayweather vs Pacquiao, in terms of pure competition for boxing.

It is bigger because, these two fighters are still at the top of their game or near enough 'And the fight is happening, in all honesty? At boiling point'. Both fighters have fought all other contenders, they have won multiple Championships, there is nowhere else for them to go.

Mayweather was eroded by the time he fought Pacquiao, way more eroded than Pacquiao 'Who should of capitalized on Mayweather's decrease in performance, but could not'.

For me this is the biggest all american championship fight since Mayweather vs De La Hoya.

It is bigger than Fury vs Wilder I, II & III.

It is bigger than Uysk vs Joshua, bigger than Fury vs Whyte.

I am looking forward to those heavyweight fights more than this fight. But I will have to admit, Crawford vs Spence Junior is a bigger deal.

my prediction for Spence Crawford will be Spence will be up in the cards late and will then get dropped a few times and Bud will win by late TKO

Crawford has generated a combined 340,000 buys over three PPVs. THREE. Crawford will be lucky to see a million dollars going forward. Has there been a single promoter that rushed in to snatch him up after he left Bob? No, every promoter ran. Why is that? Because Crawford isn’t marketable whatsoever and hasn’t faced anyone at WW. The fans know it, other boxers know it and promoters certainly know it. This is a business not a charity. Spence otoh has generated 18 million$ in ppv buys. In addition he sells out arenas.

Crawford should be fortunate to grab onto scraps through promoter generosity.

why are you ignoring the fact that Spence was also behind the bigger promotion outfit and was able to fight his stable mates, who were kept away from Top Rank until after they had already lost to Spence/Thurman
Crawford didn't have the same opportunities to generate big PPV revenue because Top Rank didn't have the big WW names in their stable

That’s literally a Terence Crawford problem. You can’t devalue yourself then try to sell yourself for much more than what u devalued yourself too. 60/40 - 65/35 is legit. Then add on back ends to both fighters over a certain butyrate. Easy deal to make unless bud doesn’t believe in himself. That’s huge money for him and if he wins it’s huge money from here on out

That still didn’t negate the fact the once he left not a single promotional company sought him.
