    if they want Crawford's belt, they should present him with an offer he can't refuse. It's essentially buying undisputed. If they think they can beat him, they should act like they want it. No guaranteed money and not disclosing the financials is easy to walk away from. When was the last undisputed welterweight? They must not want it that bad if they are acting like he's some no name mandatory challenger.

      You cant be serious you understand who Bud is fighting right, a guy Lamont Peterson beat.

      I don't understand the way you people think, its all fanboy BS no matter what the facts say.

        Dud stammered through his interview he sounded drunk. “I called al I like al I like talking to al I called Errol and told him no one buys ppvs he said he has a fire stick” it was painful to listen to him try to pick and chose what parts of the conversation to talk about lol. They gave dud everything he asked for which was reasonable. Al haymon is many things but he is not out here to screw Terence Crawford. You don’t hear fighters talk bad about haymon cause he does good business. You can complain about pbc matchmaking and that may or may not be valid but show me a fighter that’s he’s screwed over on a fight purse. Spence deserves the higher percentage 3 belts to 1 resume vs resume its not close haymon will get the fight on showtime Ppv. 250k ppv buys which is very reasonable for this fight pulls in 17.5 M at 70$ a pop. Add say 12.5M live gate. There’s 30M 10m in sponsorship=40M revenue I think is conservative to fair revenue estimate. 20M spence 15M dud and if they do more that 250k those numbers go up. The truth is if dud stopped playing games they could promote this fight and it would do well over 250k buys. Dud just used to 8m paydays for beating up Amir khans he knows spence is his cash out fight

            So now Spence is going to fight Thurman who he promised he would never fight? Why not fight Boots?

            So much for "The Truth"........

                Its forced onto him by WBC, Crawford said Ennis name didn't come up which is BS, Ennis wanted TC but TC wants a B grader.

                  I rather see Spence VS Thurman than Crawford VS Who is he fighting Again?

                  Smh/lol

                  Shame on Crawford for not making this fight.

                  He's coming across as a real dumb loser/negotiator.

                    Nobody can make Spence fight Thurman besides Haymon........

                    WBC has ZERO say.

                      Its a mandatory being enforced, if he wants to keep the WBC belt he must fight the mandatory, wake up to the rules of boxing, TC was bragging about fighting his mandatories and Thurman would beat those guys, a much better fight would be Thurman against Buds B grade opponent.

                      You do understand TC is fighting a B grade guy that has been stopped and beat by Peterson, bet you don't answer it lol.
