Spence-Crawford In Jeopardy, Delayed

[Boxfan83]

Crawford getting treated like the white man's champ over at pbc. It's much easier to con a poor Mexican with a little feria and words like "National pride" and "legacy" than it is a brotha. I bet pbc is trying some sucker deal and Bud keeps calling bs.

No guaranteed money AND no oversight on any of the financials? In a nutshell, PBC can’t back the fight financially and they need to keep Crawford’s cut low. Rumors have been swirling for awhile that they don’t have much cash. Time for Bud to move on from this fight.

This has been dragging on for too long. Al Haymon needs to give Team Crawford an ultimatum and a deadline. Crawford has to understand that he has no leverage at the bargaining table.

He is a man without a company backing him. This is not ESPN where he was earning $4M guaranteed contracts from the network. This is the PBC; A place where there are no guarantees but only percentages.

Therefore, if a fighter wants to increase their purse then they are going to have to be wiling to go out there and sell enough pay per views and tickets at the live gate in order to do so.

Fox sports and Showtime Championship boxing doesn't have nowhere near the type of budget to spend on boxing the way ESPN does. This is a brand new business model for Terence Crawford. Both Top Rank and ESPN have spoiled him.

Clownish response coming from u. He already has done what everyone said he wouldnt and thats accept a smaller cut, and is getting net, not gross. To want transparency is what any SMART individual would ask for. Your biz acumen is showing...

As for your "what are his other options"...hes wbo champ, can move up and force the fighy with Charlo as the wbo allows and enforces

Then, perhaps he should do just that. The PBC doesn't need him. He needs the PBC. Even Matchroom doesn't want his services. So where else he is going to go?

It's just the way it is. He either takes it or leave it!

Some here don't read, it seems.

Since Crawford (38-0, 29 KOs) will earn a percentage of the net revenue, he wants the ability to approve expenses, sources said.

No. You're the B-Side.

Expenses are managed up****** of you.

Your job is to do enough promotion that gets enough asses in the seats to maximize your cut.

PBC heard your former promoter tell the world that he could have built a house out in Beverly Hills with the money he lost on you ("nice house"), which was because of guarantees.

This is the definition of delusional.

I can't blame Bud for this.

Oh I didn't see that. He should have some input into expenses, but not veto power.

[sicko]

it will get worked out everybody need to STFU and let them work, nobody has walked away from the table so things are On Going clearly

I don't care if they both choose to take fights at the end of this year then do it early 2023, as long as the fight is signed sealed and delivered I don't care, both are in their Prime, Bud is a PRIME 35 he hasn't taken any major Punishment or none of that so NO Bud is far from a "OLD" 35

Go February, the Saturday after the Super Bowl and run a Ads for the fight during the Super Bowl I don't care just as long as it happens and no Sanctioning Bodies shouldn't get in the way of it and try to order Bud vs Ortiz and Spence vs Stanionis or Boots, let them sort this out
