Comments Thread For: Showtime Head on Making Spence-Crawford: I'm Not Gonna Give Up Until Both of Them Are Retired

[Wacked_Out]

“But I’m not gonna give up. I’m not gonna give up until either one of them or both of them are retired.”

He's telling you he is gonna wait till they retire.
My old man once told me, son, if you get caught and go to jail dont worry. I'll get you outta that jail if it takes me 100 years.

I just see projections, but no final PPVs nor what Crawford made. He said he was guaranteed $10M, and had got half up front. I saw something that said he got $1.5 up front and 70% of the PPVs. Anyway, he came up less than what he would've got fighting Spence on SHO PPV! Bud is definitely no Money May, when it comes to business!

I think Something gets done, not next BUT later this year most likely...Doesn't have to be at 147, doesn't have to be for Undisputed

Boots advisor is Cameron Dunkin and not Al. This is one of the reason some people feel that Boots' career has not takeoff yet like it should have by this point. As for Showtime, obviously, Boots has a working relationship but I don't know if he has an exclusive deal like a Tank for example.

its my understanding that the Boots-Showtime deal ended at the end of 2022. Perhaps they signed a new deal but I dont recall reading about it.

just saw video where WBO president said Vergil Ortiz was dropped from rankings for turning down Crawford twice; Ennis was #2 & he was removed because he passed on opportunity. His dad said it was due to network (both videos online). Crawford literally has no options unfortunately ..

Yeah. It's a three fight deal I've read last year and Showtime only delivered 1 fight. No news about a new deal. No wonder some YouTubers are saying Bozy admitting they have no deal with Showtime. It's a mess and nobody knows who to believe.

HBO wouldve got this done.....end of story

Not with Al Haymon involved. It's the reason they walked away. They wanted certain fights to happen. Haymon and his fighters didn't. They wanted top dollar for cherry picks. HBO then walked away.

The irony is that on that same Mannix podcast, Espinoza basically said that Tank vs Ryan is happening because both instructed their team to make it happen and no other fight would do.

It didn't happen for the past 3 years because Davis saw it as too much of a threat. Now Garcia will have to make 136 which he won't have done for 2 and a half years by the time he does so. Tank now likes the fight because of the advantage. It wouldn't have happened otherwise.

Exactly! This fight coming up in terms of action is probably going to be just as good if not better. These boxers actually want to fight!

Ortiz doesn't want to fight. He was the mandatory for Crawford. Well, until he and his team pulled himself from that position. They had their chance, but ran instead for easier fights.
