Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather: 'I Would Love To Sign Terence Crawford, I'm Going To Support Black American First'

[Fangedgrowl]

Don't think Floyd would be the best fit. His promotional style seems risk-averse and the fight to be made is with Spence now. Crawford should try to sign a limited deal with PBC that gives him long term independence.

Crawford shouldnt sign with anyone. He should be able to mamage himself. Crawford should be a free againt every fight. Yes he doesnt like promoting. He needs to try to promorte just alittle bit. His skills are top 3 or 4 pound for pound.

Floyd will sign Bud then put him on the undercard of his next exhibition fight.

Nah Floyd would get him more money than he was making at Top Rank. And wouldn't have to worry about his promoter throwing him under the bus.

Terence should stay far away from him. Floyd has one thing in mind, he wants to be in the limelight by any means necessary.

He should just go strait to the PBC and work directly with Al Haymon.

yeah but Floyd overshadows all his fighters.

[STREET CLEANER]

With Terrence suing Bob for racism it is easy for Floyd to say this in trying to attract him. Floyd real ploy is to get exposure for himself for one of the biggest fights that can be made at this moment.

I wonder how the other fighters that Floyd has signed that are not black feel about this statement.

[Knuckle sandwich]

Say what you want about him love or hate Floyd. His fighters make more MONEY than they've ever made on other networks. He's exploiting them????
Mayweather has learned the business side of the game so he helps these fighters navigate through the BS. I'm sure he's not perfect in that regard but that's part of the game. No matter what you won't or can't please everyone...that's just a fact. All that testosterone with these fighters and it's bound to be stuff here and there.

Again i'm not nut huggin Floyd, but think about it for second. If he was as bad as you say, then Al Haymon surely wouldn't have screwed with him this long because he's as All BUSINESS as they come. THE SAME AL HAYMON THAT GRADUATED FROM HARVARD WITH A ECONOMICS DEGREE AND ALSO MBA GRADUATE DEGREE FROM HARVARD. Started as a small fish managing Vernon Forrest and took over the game. Dude is serious and you have to respect that.

Exploiting no....Win Win...Heck yeah.

If a white promoter said they favoured white working class fighters all hell would break lose, there's is no excuse for this however you interpret it.

He doesn’t need Floyd for that. What can Floyd offer that Haymon/PBC can’t? TMT doesn’t have much of a stable and Tank hasn’t exactly lit up the PPV buys.
Bud has to be smart about this. This will be the last time he’s in this position. Don’t make the same mistake twice.

[Themanager]

perfect fit for bud. He hates talking and floyd never shuts up.... It's a win win

lmao ! Nailed it

[BZBEE]

Is floyd capable of taking the back seat to anyone else?

[Idunnoshet]

But he is on Pay Per View now and he's getting some serious paper. Those are 2 things we HAVEN'T heard Gervonta complaining about.

I never said he wasn't on PPV or wasn't getting " serious paper ".
I said he hasn't been sounding too happy with his promoter based on his tweets he later deleted.
