Comments Thread For: Crawford: I Didn't Ask Arum For Transparency Because I Had Guarantee For Every Fight With Him

[DClefthook]

At the end of the day, Bud is doing all he can to save face..dude is doing damage control Overtime. Bud has contradicted himself roughly 6 times in the last 48 hours....

It took dude 2 weeks to come up with that flashcard-driven Instagram video he posted. It took Spence less than 24 hours to flood him on Twitter with a rebuttal.

This could very easily be put to rest by sharing the draft contract.....I'm still tryna figure out, how if neither of them were guaranteed any money, and the splits on the front and back end were pretty clear, WTF did he want transparency on? Like bruh, there is no transparency to be had on PPV numbers that don't yet exist . The leaked Spence audio (that was leaked by Broner, btw), tells you what it was....Bud didn't trust his own lawyers!!! If you can't trust your own people, that's on YOU. He's about to get straight up TRILLER-ED by BLK Prime

That video looked like an Iraqi hostage video. I thought he was gonna say "they demand alllll US troops out of the middle east"

Of course he didn't want to see the books! Top Rank was losing so much money on those guarantees that Crawford's own promoter was attacking him in the press for being a nobody.

So let me get it straight, Arum the guy who overpaid you, tried to convince your manager to try to take risk and take on bigger challenges to warrant big paydays. Then you turn it around and sue Arum claiming that he was screwing you over, and now you're praising Arum because you didn't want to fight Spence in order to save face? This dude is an absolute overrated clown

“A lot of people say, ‘Well, did he ask to see Bob Arum’s books? Did he ask for transparency with Bob Arum?’ No, I didn’t,” Crawford stated during a 20-minute session streamed on Instagram Live. “You know why? A lot of y’all probably don’t even know why. But I was signed to Bob Arum. I wasn’t my own boss. I was getting a guarantee on every single fight that I fought for Bob Arum and Top Rank. That’s the difference. That’s the difference, you guys. So, if you guys can’t understand that, then I don’t know what to tell you. I don’t know what to tell you. You know?”

Which is why he was never going to fight Manny. That whole thing was a lie.

These clowns see a black dude riding up the street in a nice car and just get ao triggered. The jealousy and envy they have for us is off the scales!

I’m not “us” but I definitely co-sign on the clear anti-black rhetoric that has been used in this thread. Two black guys didn’t make a fight and somehow the basement dwelling incels used that as a reason to bash Haymon and Crawford racially. That shows you that these tosspots obsess with black guys

remember when the pbc fanboys used to say...all crawford needs to do is leave arum and the fight with spence will happen...

Yes you are 100% right we did think that and that's why we are so mad because Bud fuqed is this generation's version of sugar rsy vs Hagler. Nobody knee that little cornfield idiot was going to pull this BS

[champion4ever]

That's right Bud. You are absolutely correct. Bob Arum did overpay your worth in order to isolate you from the brothers like Al Haymon.

Can’t force Bud to take the fight though can you. He’s a free man. At least now separate promoters and networks are not barriers

[Roadblock]

1. Apparently transparency is in every fight.
2. Crawford aint really want the fight did he?

TC got his transparency, it was in the first contract why doesn't he produce the first contract and the second draft to the public so we could see who is lying instantly, if Bud whats to clear this up just produce the contracts its that simple, stop with pleading and script reading videos and produce the contracts.

It's so funny how all the minimum wage earners like you are all of a sudden great financial advisers. You mofos work at Arbys, Walmart and target making 8.50 per hour but want to lecture businessmen on how to handle millions of dollars. I'm glad Haymon (the black promoter) has the business savvy to tell Bud what Bob (the white promoter) didn't. Which is tell him you ain't worth the guarantee because you cant sell ****. That's why Bob and Hearn didn't want you because you don't generate money like Spence can. Idiots like you just can't wrap your dumb head around the fact that the black guy runs boxing. Arum has been sued over 100x's for leeching his fighters. Canelo sued Oscar to get out of his contract because he was getting leeched. Hearn was about to leech Eubanks by letting him fight a roided up boxer. But you got all that energy for Al. hahahaha LOSERRRRRR

FUN FACT: So many people sh11t on: Don King and Bob Arum, these two ying/yang devils really complete each other, and both of these parasites are still alive for some reason as well. And NOBODY shi1ts on Al Haymon........ except for the people who aint signed to him!

All the PBC fighters always talk up Haymon.........
