Comments Thread For: Crawford Says He Received Half of His Purse Already Ahead of Avanesyan Fight

[MCFM]

That is $5 million more than PBC was willing to pay him and he hasn't even stepped in the ring yet.

Willing to pay? If so, why the fight cant be made? maybe because PBC DOESNT WANNA PAY HIM THAT MUCH WHILE RISKING THEIR BROKEN, FINAL CASH COW TOO

Bud will say anything to save face at this point. Take his word with a grain of salt.

That applies more to spence, hes been doing that his whole career

I don't think Crawford wants or wanted any part of Spence after that performance against Ugas

I believe PBC has blocked or purposefully not made meaningful fights, which they have, to fit their agenda.

Whatever PBC has done in other fights is a whole different argument.

Why do you believe Crawford with his “$50 million fantasy tale”? All he has to do is show proof of that.

Two, how did Crawford have a fight ready and signed right after negotiations with Spence fell through? Crawford had no intention of fighting Spence - that’s the only logical explanation.

Lastly, why not go after Boots? Even the guys thaa are r don’t like Crawford would respect him for it.

The past 4 weeks we’ve heard Crawford talk like a parrot trying desperately to save face.
If Spence was at fault, why couldn’t Crawford go after Boots? He’s get more respect for that fight.
Crawford is scared of both Spence and Boots. That’s why he fights washed up guys like Khan and Brook.

Obviously, whoever paid him $10M which I don't believe DKDAB.

I believe you have the Dunning-Kruger Effect

And I believe you have the halfaf.agfanboi effect

LOL, take the fight in a heart beat but submitted paperwork to the IBF to a Spence mandatory. When Ortiz didn't submit paperwork (Go see fighthype video where Oscar said we prefer to fight Spence, not Crawford bc he is better and more complex but Oscar don't know boxing better than people on these boards) for the WBO mandatory, that moved Ennis into the #1 mandatory spot. All dad and Ennis had to do was to petition the WBO for a mandatory and block the Avan fight. They didn't, just keep talking. It aint the job of an undisputed, 2 lineal to chase an unknown up and comer You are delusional or a fanboy if you think so. Ask him why he and his dad didn't send a petition to the WBO but sent one to the IBF.

But... but can you explain why Ennis keeps saying he will take the Crawford fight in a heartbeat if it was offered? As you stated here all he has to do is enforce his WBO #2 mandatory position, which Ortiz Jr twice rejected as #1. (At least Ortiz is not saying he'll take the fight in a heartbeat.)

These guys are going to lose money Handover fist. I don't know why they want to bother losing money.

Just looking at the televised boxing schedule for this weekend, you have alot of competition; ESPN+ has Conlan/Guerfi and then Teo/Sandor and DAZN has Warrington and El Venado. Even Manny has some exhibition bout.

Not sure people will be opting to purchase a PPV when they have good fights more readily accessible. One would have to be a very big Crawford fan to go that route. Good luck to BLK in this venture...
