Comments Thread For: Crawford on Spence Fight: 'What Do Y'all Want Me To Do? ... I'm Trying My Hardest'

[SplitSecond]

Spence is getting screwed by fighting without a guarantee. nobody outside of pbc is that foolish.

Mikey left pbc to go get 7 million guaranteed for Jessie vargas on a non ppv fight. Mikey made more for that fight than he did vs spence on ppv.

Not sure how its working currently. But for the most part it hasn’t been Haymon’s money. That’s why he can afford to lose and lose.

Funny that...

Gets a guarantee against Vargas - half tries, barely motivated.

Guarantee against Martin - half tries, takes another L and retires in disgrace.

However...

No guarantee against Broner - works hard, gets it done.

No guarantee against Bunny - works hard, gets it done.

No guarantee against Spence - he at least tried, just got completely outworked.

Seems like that no guarantee is a great motivator.

He had a guarantee in every fight you just named buddy. So cut the bullsh#t.

Somebody needs to engineer, a situation where both Crawford & Spence Junior come face to face.

If both of these fighters just wanted to fight one another in terms of competition? The fight deal would of been done.

There are two reasons why fighters want to fight each other 'Business, & Competition'.

When the motivation is more extrinsically based on business? These are the situations that can happen.

Wilder vs Fury for example, those two fighters intrinsically wanted with a extreme passion to beat one another. That is why against all the odds, the 3rd fight materialized.

Deontay Wilder refused to disappear, it was his singularity ambition which forced the 3rd fight.

Wilder had a rematch clause that had to be upheld.

Crawford has always been arrogant. In his head what he means that he tried the hardest is the little he will allow because he thinks so highly of himself.

He got paid for crappy fights getting spoiled in the process and when he was a free agent no top promoters or networks went running to him to sign him up.

I don't know who's to blame, but it's bud whosvself proclaiming his abilities and worth a bit more than anyone.
Bud should be mo 're humble and state how a win over Spence will elevate him

Do you think Spence has in his contract a 900k penalty for Haymon if he can’t get him a Crawford fight like Crawford put in his contract with Arum?

Don't know what are in those contracts, they say one thing, then another and then say something else.

Arum cried of how much money he was loosing with Bud and surprising once the contract was up he didn't hold him with legal litigations like he does with other top fighters.

If anything Bud really got paid for fights no one asked for but sued Arum for racism on the way out.

The PBC fighters either really like how they get paid with Haymon or they are in a very restrictive contract. I don't see any of them crying or trying to leave.

PBC seems to be a laundering operation the way they do not care about making money and have in house fights and the numbers/books are top secret confidential.

What's funny is these fools didn't even know anything about guarantees before this whole Crawford debacle. All they have to do is look for the video where Eddie Hearn explains why that fight should have no guarantees. If they see his white face say it then they will believe it. Al asked Bud why would he put a ceiling on himself at 20 million. If the fight does really well and does 7-800k PPV buys he probably could get 40 million. Damn he's dumb.
