Comments Thread For: Crawford: Spence Didn't Want The Fight As Bad As I Did; I Agreed To All Of Their Bull****

[GhostofDempsey]

Both of them have been hoping for that life-changing, generational wealth pay day they thought they were getting against Manny, which was a winnable fight for either of them. Once that slipped away neither of them want to risk their “0” for a paycheck that will only be equal to what they have already earned to fight safer opponents. Spence already pulled out of his big fight with Manny to get surgery for an injury that was likely caused by his car accident. He wasted Manny’s time and we had already seen how Spence looked sluggish in camp, and his fans were more than forgiving.

Crawford left Arum to get this fight, now he is seeing for himself how difficult it is to do business with PBC if you aren’t on their payroll. I’m also going to come back to how each of them are probably expecting more than they are worth.

So you're saying PBC isn't competent enough to promote the biggest welterweight fight in a decade to garner atleast 400K buys at minimum?? The fight by itself does 300k easily and with proper promotion,PBC should be capable of pushing it to 500K which would satisfy everyone involved.

PBC came at Bud with an offer that has his take home based off of fuchin hotdog sales ffs.

Well perhaps, the PBC could get Top Rank to go at least half with them for the costs. That way they won’t have to assume all of the financial risks. However, in order for that to take place; Then Terence Crawford is going to have to drop his lawsuit against Bob Arum.
