    **** both of these *******s I wouldnt pay **** to watch either one of them fight. Crawford and Spence will both retire with a **** resume and no one will care. These greedy ass boxers and promoters have to make 50 million dollars per fight. **** that just go away.

      Man, I don’t think too many fans are interested what sort of “business deals” Crawford is making. From what I gathered he tried to get Errol to come fight in some new-fangled platform but unsure why he doesn’t understand the loyalty towards Haymon that PBC fighters have.
      Again, from my disinterested perspective, I concluded that a fair offer was put in the table (certainly one that would be worked through) then Crawford decided to go for “even more” with BLK offer.
      NOTE: I am not saying the Crawford ducked Spence in any way. However it appears his bank account means more than his legacy.
      Can’t judge him for that but at least acknowledge it.

        Regarding BLK. Man I have zero interest in these new-fangled entertainment apps. They cater 100% to the casuals, and thus their roster, while limited is extremely top-heavy. Typically signing top fighters closer to retirement looking for one final contract.

        i found Thriller to be a complete joke. I watched a few events but can only take so much Snoop Dog and is fake gangster ass, along with drunken DeLaHoya talking about what a party atmosphere the event was, followed by people I never heard of but are “social media influencers” in the ring, only followed by some weak over the hill rapper playing his greatest hit to 25 year old skank women just there to be seen and free booze.
        trust me I tried but don’t think I could sit through one of their shows again even if Wilder and AJ headlined.
        Yes, I am an old school fan from 1970, but have always rocked with promotional companies that cater to true boxing fans/hardcores instead of casuals. I understand the sport needs to continue and grow, but not at the risk of jeopardizing tbe integrity of the sport I love.
        Crawford cares about one thing. Getting the most money he can for each fight. Going solo doesn’t seem to be working well for him. You have to be able to do more than scrap…you have to
        have what cats like Ali, Jones Jr. and Mayweather had other than fighting skills to be successful going solo. Looks like he will just be shopping himself around for money grabs until his career is over. Kind of sad but at least he steady is admitting it.

          I cannot see in any way he would not get at least double the DA purse for fighting Spence, he took low ball instead of a high ball take home to walk away, the only difference he don't even have to train to beat DA, with Spence its a battle.

            Both of these dudes can't touch the greats that came before them..

            2 fighters that never dared to be great.. they literally clearly 1a and 1b and just content beating up on each other's left overs.. Zero shot at HOF

              Hes fighting some russian cabbage farmer that nobody even heard of, giving the bum 6 weeks notice and some how the idiots that manage him are going to pay him $10 million, i dont even know where the money is coming from because this will only sell 40-50k which is only $3 in ppv sales.

              And Crawford has the ***ing nerve to complain about things and sue Top Rank who over paid him as well.

                Is English their first language ?

                    Still more dangerous with 6 consecutive stoppages vs Keef 1 fight every 36 months Thurman. If he is in shape, 6-8 week camp is a norm. Broner already told you that one video. Go look it up, not 12 week to 6 month camps. Some of your guys. Obviously extended camps are usually tied into the big fights for promotion. Keef is far more a tune up than Avan

                      I’ll be LMAO if this **** turns out to be a circus show and the fighters don’t get paid especially with Broner involved.
