Comments Thread For: Crawford: Hedge Fund Offered Me, Spence $25M Guaranteed Apiece; Haymon Wasn't Interested

[Roadblock]

You are worth what you can negotiate. So if Crawford negotiated a deal that is rumored to be 8 figures to fight Avensyan.....despite him having low PPV buys in the past, then Crawford just did great business considering PBC won't show him the back end figures.

Where did the 25 mill offer go, or was that just for Spence?

Do the numbers this all BS.

He was capping big time.

Id figure thats why thers lawyer,but spence probaly the big hypejob

any grown man here was offered 5 times the amount of their bighest payday guaranteed, they would take it .

al haymon could easily look into this and make spence a ton of money .the saudis could easily make this offer to bud and spence and al haymon wouldnt do it because he wants to control everything

You’re acting as if Terrence Crawford is fighting 50-50 fights himself where we don’t know what the outcome will be lol I mean cmon look at his last 3 opponents. A semi retired washed up Shawn Porter and Kell Brook. A uknown unproven kavaliuskas who actually dropped him. And now look at who Terrence is fighting next, a euro bum we all know Terrence is gonna stop in under 8 rounds smh At least Spence is fighting guys that are still in their prime

You forgot the biggest joke of them all … Amir Khan.
Khan was irrelevant at 147 and hadn’t diddly shďt in years yet Bud figured it was a great challenge.

Every guy Bud has fought at 147, we all knew he was going to mop the floor with them. I can’t believe WC there are people who are talking of him as an ATG let alone HoF.

All this running to the media to expose who said what bs is what’s wrong with the sport, and why YouTubers can fight and make millions without any boxing skills experience. Such a joke! Hope this fight doesn’t even happen anymore, they aren’t the best welters in the world anymore anyway, Phuck them belts… I’ll take boots and Vergil over bud and Spence any day! Stop running to the media idiots…

word salad.. now anybody with common sense and fair play can see why crawford is so hard to work with. plus he's not that smart. why is crawford talking to haymon and PBC fighters(supposedly).. thats what qualified lawyers are for.. now bud talking hedge fund managers that hasnt been veted?.. if thats true why they reach out to you and not your team?.. bud lyin. his ignorance and jealousy was on full display. his 'team' smearing EJ and Al Haymon with school yard accusatiions I wont repeat. bud surrounded by 'yes men & ignorance'. bud's friend 'bernie the boxer' is trying hard to burn the bridge for bud to fight EJ. why?.. you dont slander ppl you intend on working with.. bud says boots & ortiz never came up?.. bc you had everyone thinking you were in talks wit EJ. bud just retire. your whole career has been ONE LONG TUNEUP. look at your opposition. bob arum made you rich on C+ fighters. you should thank him..

Dud duckford is a funny guy. Stumbled and stuttered through that interview. Why would these mystery company hedge funds go to dud to make this fight I’m confused? He was already negotiating with al and showtime supposedly. But then these unnamed mystery companies went directly to dud and no one else about this 25M gaurantee? wouldn’t these mystery company hedge funds want to inform spence as well? And bottom line is PBC gave bud all his transparency he asked for they just never heard back from him. He was busy signing with BLK lining up the PPV of his career vs adrien broner

Terrence Crawford really must have five brain cells.

Hearn was literally offering Haymon and his fighters any amount of money to let his fighters go fight on a rival network (DAZN). None of them took the bait.

But.... Haymon is going to let some dude Crawford knows buy the rights to possibly the biggest fight in boxing? Just like that? Just some random hedge fund is like "Al Haymon, move out the way yo" and Crawford thinks that is a realistic possiblity?

Jesus Christ.

Remember that guy that was telling Fight Hype he and the Saudi's were going to buy the rights to Mayweather-Pacquaio?
